10AP Series: Tall-Rise Lifts

Our 10APX has been designed to accommodate mechanics out there that are 

constantly in uncomfortable positions while on the job. This beast of a lift offers a 

lifting height of 79.5” and an overhead beam of 157”. This will give you plenty of 

room to work comfortably with the best equipment available. If you’re working on 

larger vehicles, our 10APX-181 is the lift for you! This lift has the same lifting height, 

but it features an overhead beam height of 181” so you’ll be able to work on high-roof cargo vans! Much like the rest of the 10AP Series, these lifts still have all of 

your favorite features, such as a 10,000-lb. lifting capacity, Low-Pro arms, Bi-Metric™ arms, and much more! 

• Clear-floor convenience – unobstructed floor space allows technicians the ability to 

easily move toolboxes, transmission jacks, oil drains, and other equipment 

underneath elevated vehicles. 

• Bi-MetricTM swing arms – give users the ability to set their lift up in either 

symmetric or asymmetric configurations. The 2-in-1 design gives installers and 

operators the option of loading vehicles either symmetrically (centerline of vehicle at 

column) or asymmetrically (centerline of vehicle behind column). 

• Low-Pro™ swing arms – low-profile telescoping swing arms offer less hindrance 

providing increased versatility and less chance of damage to vehicle side skirts, 

running boards, or ground effects. 

• Automatic arm restraints – each arm is equipped with durable 360-degree full contact geared arm restraints that provide over 2000-pounds of load-holding force 

and automatically engage each time the lift is raised. When the lift is lowered, the 

gear- type arm restraints automatically disengage to provide easy positioning of the 

lift arms. 

• Configurable wide or narrow installation – allows you to maximize the use of your 

floor space. 

• Single-piece columns – we purposely manufacture the columns using single-piece 

construction for added strength and less fatigue under heavy load conditions. 

• Maintenance free load bearings – rather than using roller bearings that need 

constant lubrication and maintenance, every AP series lift carriage uses futuristic 

ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene load bearings that never need 

lubrication and last virtually the life of the lift. 

• Dual Direct-Drive technology – by utilizing two low-pressure Direct-Drive cylinders, 

we’ve eliminated the need for lifting chains or screw mechanisms most commonly 

found on other lift designs. This Direct-Drive technology offers better reliability, 

smoother operation, and less maintenance. Low pressure means a much smaller 

workload is placed on the entire hydraulic system. 

• Single-point safety release – the single-point safety release and dead-man style 

operation controls makes every one of our AP series lifts easy to operate and safe to 

use. 

• On the level – our Dual-Synchro equalization system maintains equal lifting and 

provides operators with a stable, level vehicle working condition. 

• HVLP hydraulic system – every AP Series lift uses a High Volume Low Pressure 

(HVLP) electric-hydraulic power system that delivers high fluid volume while 

maintaining low system pressure. Because the hydraulics are not constantly under 

high pressure, seal failure and leakages are much less likely to occur. 

• Industrial-grade hydraulic cylinders – integrated into every AP Series hydraulic 

cylinder is a one-piece, pilot-fitted, machined-steel piston wrapped with specially 

designed, pressure-loaded U-cup piston seals, backups, and wear bands that 

virtually eliminate any fluid bypass. A micro-smooth chrome rod is machined from 

high-yield, ground and polished alloy steel and the welded cylinder body exceeds 

ASTM specifications. 

• Super-tall lift carriages – 53" & 59" tall carriages are considerably taller than most 

two-post styles, which minimizes the stress placed on the load bearings and 

columns. 

• Varying height stackable adapters – a 14 piece (12 adapters + 2 racks) set is 

included as standard accessories providing greater vertical pad placement for precise 

and safe vehicle support
