It is sized for the shop or serious home garage that works on cars, light trucks, and SUVs and wants a clear floor under the vehicle, not a clutter of cross-rails and floor plates.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBecause the safety cut-off bar and equalizer hardware run across the top of the columns rather than along the floor, the NTO-9AE leaves an open \u003cstrong\u003e99-inch drive-thru\u003c\/strong\u003e between the arms. You drive straight in, set the four pads, and work without stepping over anything. The lift raises to a \u003cstrong\u003e72-inch lifting height\u003c\/strong\u003e in about 50 seconds and lowers its pads to \u003cstrong\u003e4.5 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e off the floor, low enough to slide under low-clearance vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLifting is driven by leaf chains running over sheaves on twin hydraulic cylinders, with equalizing cables keeping both carriages level as the lift rises. The columns carry \u003cstrong\u003e21 lock positions\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003edual-point lock release\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the carriages set on a mechanical latch at the working height you choose and release together. A padded overhead cut-off bar with an electric safety switch stops the lift before a roof or raised hood contacts the crossbeam.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cfigure\u003e   \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/5550\/0318\/files\/nto-9ae-two-post-auto-lift-power-unit.webp?v=1780761531\" alt=\"Hydraulic power unit with motor, push button, and steel reservoir tank mounted on the lift column\"\u003e   \u003cfigcaption\u003eColumn-mounted hydraulic power unit with motor, push-button control, and steel reservoir.\u003c\/figcaption\u003e \u003c\/figure\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe NTO-9AE uses a versatile-symmetric arm set: \u003cstrong\u003etriple-stage front arms\u003c\/strong\u003e that telescope from 29 to 51.5 inches and \u003cstrong\u003edouble-stage rear arms\u003c\/strong\u003e from 27 to 41.5 inches, so the long arms reach the engine-side lift points and the shorter arms set under the rear.

Hydraulic and electrical parts are covered under the 1-year parts term. Cylinders carry a 30-day full warranty, after which a seal kit is supplied. Rubber lifting pads are not covered. The warranty applies to the original purchaser and requires indoor installation; outdoor or wet-location use voids coverage on the power unit and motor.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat electrical service does it need?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe power unit runs on a 110-volt single-phase circuit.

The columns are held by floor anchors only, so the lift cannot go on asphalt or an unstable surface. Anchor bolts are included.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWill it lift a truck?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eYes, within the 9,000-lb rating.

The driver delivers curbside and does not unload it — you need a forklift, tractor, or similar equipment to take it off the truck, and lift-gate service is not available for auto lifts. You schedule the delivery appointment directly with the freight carrier.
