The Lift supports less weight than its full rated capacity if a Vehicle’s wheelbase is shorter because
the Wheels of the Vehicle are closer to the middle of the Runways, where there is less strength. For
example, if you put a Vehicle with a wheelbase of only 84.5 inches on a D4-9, the shorter
wheelbase puts more weight in the middle of the Runways, reducing the Lift’s capacity to
4,500 lbs (50% of its full rated capacity of 9,000 lbs).
