Compatibility Chart

Do I have to use the security pin when the vehicle is lifted up?
Yes, use of the security pin is mandatory. WARNING: Remove the security pin every time you want to
lower the vehicle in order to prevent damage.
Is it possible to use the MaxTilt in humid environments?
Yes, the MaxTilt is completely mechanical, so it can be used in case you want to wash the bottom of the
vehicle or in any humid environments. WARNING: Always keep the drill away from wet or humid
environments!
Do I have to use the jack stand while the vehicle is lifted?
Yes, it is mandatory to use the jack stand every time MaxTilt is in use to prevent any injuries. Using the
jack stand will prevent the vehicle from tilting and prevent any injury which can be caused by tilting i.e. a
person working under the vehicle.
What variety of vehicles can I lift with the MaxTilt?
The MaxTilt will lift the vast majority of passenger cars. The lifting platforms are designed to slide in and
out to suit the sill widths or jacking points of most passengers’ cars. MaxTilt is intended to be used to lift
vehicles with unibody construction only. Do not use this product to lift or tilt vehicle with body-on-frame
construction! The manufacturer and seller are not responsible for any injuries or damages that are the
result of usage while lifting and/or tilting vehicles with body-on-frame construction.
Can the vehicle tilt accidentally on it own when raised on the MaxTilt?
No, the vehicle cannot tilt of its own accord whilst on the MaxTilt unless the center of gravity changes.
Consider that if you remove a significantly heavier part of the vehicle, for example the engine, a heavy
load in the trunk etc, the center of gravity of the vehicle may change and the vehicle may tilt by itself.
Always use the jack stand.
What is the maximum width of a vehicle for which the MaxTilt can be used?
The MaxTilt is equipped with adjustable platforms, they can slide to a minimum width of 44.5” (113.5
cm) and a maximum width of 62” (158 cm). Note: The MaxTilt can be used for all the vehicle types with
a classic chassis.
Why is there an up arrow on one gearbox and a down arrow on the other?
The arrows denote which gearbox is designed to raise the lift and which to lower the lift. If the drill used
is a single direction drill (only runs clockwise) the up arrow gearbox will drive the lift up and the down
arrow gearbox drives the lift down. If the drill can run clockwise and counterclockwise – the lift may be
lifted and lowered from one gearbox.
What drill power is required to lift the vehicle?
Use a drill with a minimum 10 Amp motor (120V). A lesser powered drill may strain or burnout while
trying to work the gears of the lift.
Can a vehicle be fixed in the horizontal position?
Yes, the vehicle can be fixed in the horizontal position with the jack stand – the jack stand has to rest at
the subframe or at a reinforcing point, dedicated for lifting the vehicle with a classic vehicle lift.
