Katool X90E – Scissor Lift (8,000 lb, Mid-Rise)
Katool X90E 8,000 lb Mid Rise Scissor Lift
The Katool X90E is a mid-rise scissor lift engineered for automotive shops and home garages with limited ceiling height. Featuring an 8,000 lb capacity, this unit handles heavier SUVs and light trucks that standard lifts cannot support. It offers a 47-inch working height from a low 4.3-inch drive-on profile, powered by a 110V motor with a 24V electric safety release system (no air required).
Key Features
8,000 lb Capacity
The X90E's 8,000 lb rating provides ample capacity for heavier modern SUVs, full-frame vehicles, and light trucks. This robust rating enables mixed-fleet shops and home mechanics to handle a wider range of vehicles on a single mid-rise platform without requiring a full-rise system.
Electric Safety Release with 24V Control
The lift utilizes an electric safety release powered by a 24V low-voltage control circuit, eliminating the need for shop compressed air. The system automatically engages locks during ascent and provides precise, safe descent control without manual lock bar manipulation.
5-Position Mechanical Safety Locks
Features 5 mechanical lock positions that engage automatically as the platform rises. Each position independently secures the load, ensuring safety for intermediate-height work such as oil changes, chassis cleaning, and undercarriage inspections.
110V Electric Operation
Operates on standard 110V single-phase power requiring a 30A dedicated circuit. This compatibility makes the X90E easy to install in residential garages and commercial facilities without the need for expensive high-voltage electrical upgrades.
CE Certification with Documented Load Testing
The X90E carries CE certification with verified testing to 115% dynamic load and 150% static load. These documented test margins provide transparent safety verification for commercial insurance requirements and regulatory compliance.
Included Mobility Caster Kit
The unit ships with a heavy-duty caster kit featuring rollers and locking arms. This allows the lift to be easily repositioned when unloaded to reclaim floor space—ideal for small garages or multi-use service bays.
