Our record lists its configuration as Dual Pendant Controls \u0026amp; QuickCycle, and it is the QuickCycle half that carries the bigger 3 HP power unit and a 27 second speed of rise. Capacity is 10,000 lbs., on the same Versymmetric offset-arm platform the rest of the family uses.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIf you are choosing between the variants, the short version is this: the pendants change where a technician can stand, the QuickCycle power unit changes how long they stand there. This page is about whether paying for both is justified by the work you do.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhere the cycle time actually goes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA rise time looks like a vanity number until you multiply it. A lift is raised and lowered several times on a single job - up to remove wheels, down to check a road-going fault, up again to torque, down to release. Across a day of short-interval work, seconds spent watching a lift travel are seconds nobody is paid for, and they arrive in the least useful shape possible: too short to start another task, long enough to break concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhere that arithmetic works is express service - oil, tyres, inspections, brake jobs measured in tens of vehicles rather than hours per vehicle. Where it does not work is a shop where a vehicle goes up in the morning and comes down in the afternoon. For that shop the standard power unit is the honest recommendation, and it costs less.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTwo pendants on top of that\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe dual pendant half of this model is about position rather than speed. A control station on each column means the operator can stand on the side the vehicle was loaded from and watch the near pads take weight, instead of running the lift blind from a fixed post and walking around to check. In a bay where two technicians share a vehicle, each of them has controls in front of them. Combined with a power unit that moves quickly, the practical effect is that the lift stops being the thing everyone waits on.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eVersymmetric geometry, in plain terms\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eVersymmetric offset front arms let one lift do symmetric and asymmetric work without being reconfigured. Asymmetric spotting sets the vehicle back so doors clear the columns - the right answer for a wide-door sedan whose occupants have to get out. Symmetric spotting centres the load between the columns, which is what a long pickup wants. Being able to choose per vehicle, rather than living with one compromise, is the whole argument for this arm design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFront arms are 3-stage and reach 20 in. to 42 in.; rear arms are 3-stage and reach 37.625 in. to 60 in. Premium double telescoping screw pads adjust from 3.875 in. to 6.125 in., which covers most recommended lift points without a stack of adapters. The directSPOT front arm design is intended to end the reverse-and-retry routine that costs a bay a minute every time a vehicle is spotted wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eBuilt to be serviced, not just sold\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe equalisation system uses an oversized 5 in. diameter pulley and heavy duty 5\/16 in. cable - a larger pulley means a gentler bend radius on the cable and less stress per cycle, which is exactly what a shop running a high cycle count should care about. Each carriage is 48 in. elongated, spreading load down a longer run of column. The single-point lock release is pulley-less and jacketed, so one pull frees both columns and there is no release pulley to seize. Base plates are fully gusseted, arm restraints and pins are plated, and the finish is powder coat.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eBuilt for a 12 ft. ceiling as standard, with 2 ft. or 3 ft. column extensions available. Floor to overhead switch runs 10 ft. 8.5 in. to 11 ft. 2.5 in. depending on setup.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThree width settings take the lift from 11 ft. 6.5 in. through to 12 ft. 6.5 in. overall, giving 110 in., 116 in. or 122 in. inside the columns and 100 in., 106 in. or 112 in. of drive-thru clearance between the carriages. Rise height at the top of the pad is 74.125 in., and maximum rise measured under the arms is 70 in.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOne measurement to confirm before you commit to a ceiling. Published figures for the overall height differ: Challenger's specification block gives 11 ft. 2 in. or 11 ft. 8 in. by column setting, and 11 ft. 11 in. with the cylinder extended; the catalogue listing gives 143 in., 145 in. or 146 in. for the same measurement. \u003cstrong\u003eIf headroom is tight, confirm the overall height with us in writing before you order\u003c\/strong\u003e - we will get it straight from Challenger.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe do not hold Challenger's concrete thickness and strength specification in our own product data, so we will not quote you one. Ask us for the installation manual before you drill anything. Verifying the slab, the anchor spec, the ceiling clearance and the electrical supply is the buyer's responsibility, and it is far cheaper to do it with a tape measure than with a lift on the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePower supply\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 HP, 208v-230v, 60 Hz, 1 Ph, with speed of rise listed at 27 seconds. That is a larger motor than the standard configuration of this lift carries, so if you are replacing an older unit do not assume the existing circuit is adequate.
