Rotary Hoist Range


2 Post Hoists

Two Post Hoist

(both symmetrical and asymmetrical) ranging from 3.2 tonne to 8 tonne lifting capacity.


Vehicles come in many different sizes and shapes. So do service centers. No matter what the mix of vehicles you see, no matter what the layout of your facility, there is a Rotary two-post hoist to meet your needs.

2 Post Hoist Features
2 Post Hoists, Engineered for Productivity


2 Post Hoist Features in Use

For decades, Rotary® has been the recognized leader in vehicle service lifts. This legendary reputation has set the standard for quality, durability, reliability and attention to safety throughout the automotive service market.



Service and Support

With Rotary lifts, you have the service and support you need. Our world-wide network of service companies are always standing by.



Lift Safety Standards

Most of our lifts are third party tested by ETL and certified by ALI to meet or exceed strict ANSI standards such as cable cut and deformation tests. Be sure the lift you buy has the gold ALI/ETL label that assures your lift has been tested to meet these standards.


2 post hoist 3 stage arm
2 Post Hoist, Key Productivity Features

The three-stage arm increases overall arm sweep and minimum arm reach to precisely lift vehicles that have:

  • Uni-body construction**
  • Visually marked pick-up points on the vehicle
  • Wider vehicle tread width and lower profile (min. adapter height 12cm)
  • A short or long wheelbase Controls on each column with 110V electric and air outlets right on the lift make this two-post lift the ultimate choice for productivity seeking technicians and managers.

Technician Productivity Features
  • Unlike most other lifts, Rotary® power units are designed, tested and built by Rotary, for Rotary lifts. We don’t use 3rd party power units which are for universal applications.
  • Adjustable height options on two-post column extensions gives you flexibility to lift and service taller vehicles.
2 Post Hoist S Colum Design
  • The patented “Double S” single piece construction column design provides a channel for the bearings to travel that maximizes the strength of the column and surface contact area of the bearing.
  • Slider block bearings of Tivar 1000 polyethylene are self-lubricating and maintenance free.
2 post Wear Blocks
  • High-pressure cylinders in each column provide maximum lifting force and smooth operation.
2 post Automatic Arm Restraints
  • Automatic Arm restraints make positioning of arms easy. They engage when the lift is raised and automatically disengage when the lift is fully lowered.
  • Overhead padded switch bar to prevent damaging a vehicle by raising it too high.

















2 Post Configuration

Lift Column Orientation Options



True Asymmetrical Lifts

(SPOA/A series)
  • Columns are rotated 30°
2 Post hoist Arm Sweep
  • Places the approximate center of gravity of the vehicle in line with the optimum load capability of the column
  • Allows maximum door opening on passenger cars for improved access to vehicle interior

True Symmetrical Lifts

(SPO/S series)

centre icon
  • Columns are not rotated Vehicle load is centered between the columns to maximize lifting capacity
  • Lift capacities 4,535 kg to 8,164 kg
  • More width between columns to accommodate larger vehicles and improve vehicle access
  • Allows max door opening on trucks and vans for improved access to vehicle interior


Arm Configurations

2 post hoist Arm Configurations and sweep
  • Asymmetrical two-stage arms are the standard configuration designed to accommodate a wide range of typical vehicles with three-position adapters.
  • Symmetrical two-stage arms are the standard configuration designed to accommodate a wide range of typical vehicles with three position adapters
  • Asymmetrical three-stage front arm that increases overall arm coverage and minimum arm reach for hard to lift vehicles.
  • Symmetrical three-stage front and rear arms that increase overall arm coverage and minimum arm reach for hard to lift vehicles





Overhead Heights and Lift Width Configurations

2 Post Hoist Height Options

Extended height (EH) options are available to maximize the working height under tall vehicles. EH models come with a standard higher rise of 2.05m. Asymmetrical 4,535 kg models accommodate narrow bays by adjusting the columns in 15.24cm.





Conventional Features

2 post hoist switch options
  • Conventional two-hand operation
  • Power unit down
  • Manual release locking system









in bay® Features

2 Post Hoist Dual Controls 2 post hoist Inbay feature
  • One touch controls on each column
  • Power unit up and out of the way
  • Integrated air/electric connections
  • Tool storage rack
  • Electronic locks

Dual Controls

OSHA compliant lockable disconnect switch is standard on in bay models. This feature avoids the need to pay extra for a lockable disconnect required to meet local electric codes.








2 post hoist height adaptors

Asymmetric i models come standard with polymer adapters that thread-up or have optional stackable inserts. No metal to metal contact.



2 post hoist lift pad adaptors

Fixed pad contact lifts are perfect for quick vehicle spotting and can increase vehicle throughput. This is the perfect lift for a quick-lube bay.
