This detailed description presents the VARIO rocking arm chassis belonging to the Consul 2-cylinder inground lift (Twin Ram Inground Lift), designed for a load capacity of 3500 kg and equipped with FixLift adapters. This high-quality component is tailored to the needs of professional vehicle repair shops, especially ideal for Consul 2.35 MKS Optima lift models.
The rocking arm chassis belongs to the Consul C-Line and Z-Line lift systems and represents the pinnacle of precise, reliable lifting technology.
Compared to standard components, this rocking arm chassis features several advanced functions that optimize workflow and access to the vehicle chassis:
Ergonomic Arm Control: The control surface is designed so that moving the arms is intuitive and requires minimal physical effort, thereby increasing workshop efficiency.
Integrated, Adjustable Lifting Table: The built-in lifting table is continuously height-adjustable, fine-tunable within a 30 mm range. This allows for perfect alignment with various vehicle heights and lifting points.
Vertical Height Adjustment Without Transverse Displacement: The height adjustment occurs exclusively in the vertical direction, which guarantees that the position of the lifting arms does not change sideways during the lift. This is critically important for safe and precise positioning.
Divergent Lifting Arm Lengths: The length of the lifting arms differs from the standard design, allowing for better adaptation to special vehicle geometries or custom requirements.
FixLift Adapterek: The included FixLift adapters ensure stable and secure fastening of the vehicles during lifting, especially for heavier models or those with special chassis geometries.
Compatibility: Specifically recommended for the 2.35 MKS Optima type of inground lift.
The product's precise engineering solutions are summarized in the following table:
| Characteristic | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Item Number (SKU) | 432963 | |
| Manufacturer Number (HAN) | 9755 | |
| Category | Twin Ram Inground Lifts | |
| Nominal Load Capacity | 3,500 kg | Maximum safe load. |
| Lifting Height | approx. 2,185 mm | The maximum achievable lifting height. |
| Chassis Height (Lowered Position) | approx. 80 – 245 mm | The distance measured above the floor level in the inground position (adjustable range). |
| Column Distance | 1.380 mm | The distance between the centers of the two lifting cylinders. |
| Lifting Range | approx. 720 – 1,315 mm | The adjustment range of the lift arms between the minimum and maximum height. |
This VARIO pivoting arm chassis has a similar design to the Consul part with article number 429001, but is supplemented with the special functions mentioned above (adjustable table, different arm lengths). Thanks to the recessible design, the lift can be completely lowered below floor level, so the workshop floor remains clear when the lift is not in use. This is ideal for maintaining clean, tidy work areas.
The pivoting arm system provides excellent access to the vehicle undercarriage, especially for vehicles with longer wheelbases or low ground clearance, where conventional column lifts may be limited. The FixLift adapters further increase flexibility, enabling the secure gripping of various types of undercarriage points.
