Features
Single-Point Manual Safety Lock Release System
Manual lock release handle ensures precise control when lowering vehicles and prevents unintended platform descent
The KT-4H110 uses a single-point manual release controlling all four mechanical locks from one location. The linkage system connects all four lock points. Pull the release handle and each mechanical pawl disengages simultaneously. During lowering, locks re-engage automatically at adjustable height increments, providing ladder-style positioning throughout the 84.25" travel range.
Four Mechanical Locks with Dual Katool KT-4H110 Safety
Dual safety lock system combines steel rope and mechanical locks to maintain platform stability even if cable fails
Each post includes primary and secondary mechanical locks with eight total lock points across the platform. If a cable fails, mechanical pawls catch on the ladder rack and hold position without hydraulic pressure. The steel wire rope system acts as separate backup, distributing load even when one mechanical system engages. Locks engage automatically during lifting and require deliberate manual release for lowering.
Integrated Hydraulic Scissor Jacks for Wheel-Free Service
Twin hydraulic scissor jacks allow technicians to raise individual axles for tire, brake, and suspension service access
Included twin scissor jacks mount between runways and lift individual axles after the main platform is raised. Critical for tire rotation, brake work, and suspension service. Jacks operate independently with foot pedals. Each jack includes adjustable pads for frame rails or manufacturer lift points. Package also includes two drip trays for a complete service station.
Cable Pulley System with Tension Spring Synchronization
Precision cable pulley system distributes lifting force across all posts ensuring stable operation and smooth synchronization
Steel wire ropes connect all four posts through a pulley network that distributes hydraulic force evenly. Tension springs absorb minor cable length differences, keeping the platform level even with off-center loads like trucks with heavy toolboxes. Guide rollers reduce friction and extend service intervals. Full rise: 83 seconds at 110V; descent: 40 seconds.
Adjustable Power Column for Flexible Shop Layout
Precision-engineered linkage system engages and releases mechanical locks ensuring platform stays securely in place during use
The hydraulic power unit can mount on any of the four posts, letting you position the electrical connection nearest your circuit breaker panel. Standard unit runs on 110V single-phase at 60Hz from a dedicated 30-amp circuit. 220V option available for reduced amp draw. Post height is 94.88" (2,410 mm). Factor this plus overhead clearance when checking ceiling height.

Installation Requirements
Concrete Requirements
Minimum 3.93" (100 mm) thick with 3,000 PSI compressive strength. Slab must be level within 1/8" over the lift's footprint. Use 5/8" diameter wedge anchors or sleeve anchors (four bolts per post). Expansion anchors not recommended.
Electrical Requirements
Standard 110V requires a dedicated 30-amp circuit with 10 AWG copper wire. Keep wire runs under 50 feet. Optional 220V needs a 20-amp circuit with 12 AWG wire. Mount the power unit at the post closest to your electrical panel.
Assembly Notes
Use the anchor template in the installation manual. Check diagonal measurements to confirm the frame is square before drilling. Being off by more than 1/4" can cause platform racking.
Warranty Coverage
1-Year Limited Warranty
1-year limited warranty covers parts and manufacturing defects. Structural components (posts, platform frame, cable assemblies) carry an additional 3-year warranty. Warranty is non-transferable and requires proof of purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles can the Katool KT-4H110 lift with its 11,000 lb capacity?
Full-size trucks, heavy SUVs, cargo vans, and most dual-rear-wheel pickups under 11,000 lb. The 112.81" inside column width fits vehicles up to ~96" wide; 229.73" overall length fits wheelbases up to ~165". Covers Ford F-250/F-350, Chevy Silverado 2500/3500, Ram 2500/3500, Suburban, Yukon XL, and Mercedes Sprinter vans.
How much ceiling height do I need for the Katool 4 post lift installation?
Minimum 10-foot ceilings. Post height is 94.88" plus 6-8" clearance above for cable routing. Total minimum 101", though 104" is comfortable. For trucks with roof racks or toppers, add vehicle height to runway height to confirm clearance.
Can I install the Katool KT-4H110 4 post lift myself or do I need professional installation?
DIY is possible if you're comfortable with concrete anchors and electrical connections. Requires 2-3 people, 6-8 hours, and a hammer drill for 5/8" anchors. Manual includes anchor templates and torque specs. Professional installation recommended if inexperienced with concrete anchoring or 220V wiring. Verify 3,000 PSI concrete before starting.
What electrical service does the Katool 11000 lb lift require?
110V: Dedicated 30-amp circuit, 10 AWG copper wire. 220V option: 20-amp circuit, 12 AWG wire. Keep wire runs under 50 feet. The 3.0 hp motor draws ~27 amps at startup on 110V. Don't share this circuit since startup load can trip breakers.
Does the Katool 4 post lift come with rolling jacks for wheel-free service?
Yes, twin hydraulic scissor jacks included, mounting between runways for wheel-free lifting. Package also includes two drip trays and a jack tray. No separate rolling jacks needed.
What maintenance does the Katool KT-4H110 4 post vehicle lift require?
Monthly: Inspect cable tension, lock engagement, hydraulic fluid level. Every 6 months: Lubricate pulley bearings and lock mechanisms with lithium grease. Annually: Replace cables if fraying, inspect hydraulic seals, torque-check anchor bolts. Keep a maintenance log for warranty support.
How does the single-point safety lock release work on the Katool lift?
A linkage system connects all four lock points. Pull the handle and all four pawls disengage simultaneously. During descent, locks re-engage at adjustable intervals. If one lock sticks, none release, which prevents tilting from three-point hold situations.
What concrete specifications are required for Katool 4 post lift installation?
Minimum 3.93" thick, 3,000 PSI compressive strength. Use 5/8" wedge or sleeve anchors, four per post. Level within 1/8" to prevent cable binding. If your slab is marginal, get a core sample to verify PSI before ordering.
