Stratus SAE-UT9000 G3 Full Rise Scissor Lift - Overview
Your shop floor has limited real estate. A traditional two-post lift eats space on both sides of the vehicle and demands clear floor around the columns. The Stratus SAE-UT9000 G3 full rise scissor lift changes that equation. The entire mechanism lives under the car, the floor around it stays clear, and you still get a 9,000 lb capacity commercial-grade lift that can handle anything from a compact car to a full-size truck.
What separates the SAE-UT9000 from a budget scissor lift is the G3 generation hardware and dual installation flexibility. You can surface-mount it on-ground - anchor it to your existing concrete and work with it day one - or flush-mount it in-ground for a true pit-level finish that disappears when not in use. Either way you get the same 9,000 lb rated capacity, the same 14 lock positions, and the same pneumatic safety lock release. The aluminum motor power unit keeps weight down and the 24V low-voltage control system keeps the operating environment safer than older high-voltage setups.
The low-profile design is worth calling out: minimum height is 4 15/16", which means vehicles with next to no ground clearance roll on without drama. The platforms extend for longer vehicles, and rubber pads in two thicknesses give you lift point flexibility across a wide range of frame heights. This is a lift that works with your vehicle mix, not against it.

Installation & Setup
The SAE-UT9000 G3 runs on a 220V, single-phase circuit with a 30A dedicated breaker. If your shop is already wired for 220V equipment, you're in good shape. If not, factor an electrician into your installation plan before the lift arrives.
On-ground installation anchors the lift to your existing concrete slab - straightforward for most shops with a solid floor. In-ground installation requires a foundation pit per Stratus's detailed foundation plan; this is the right path if you want a flush floor finish and intend the lift to be a permanent fixture. Either configuration delivers the same operational specs. The lift ships freight and will require a forklift or loading equipment on your end for offloading - the platform assembly alone weighs 2,037 lbs.
Hydraulic oil (AW32 or AW46) is required for operation and is not included - have it on hand before commissioning.
Applications
Full-rise access at 77 9/16" max height lets techs work comfortably under any standard passenger vehicle, SUV, or light truck. The open center design keeps the undercarriage clear and accessible.
Commercial-grade construction and 14 lock positions make this lift reliable enough for high-cycle daily shop use. The on-ground mount option gets you operational quickly without floor modifications.
The open center and full-rise height give clear access to underbody panels, exhaust systems, and suspension components. Flush in-ground mount keeps the floor clean and hazard-free when the lift is down.
The dual on-ground / in-ground mounting option means this lift fits both a purpose-built automotive space and a converted garage. The 4 15/16" minimum height handles low-clearance performance cars that a standard lift can't accommodate.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the on-ground and in-ground installation options?
On-ground surface mount anchors the lift directly to your existing concrete slab - no excavation needed. In-ground flush mount requires a foundation pit per Stratus's foundation plan, but the result is a lift that sits flush with your floor when not in use. Both configurations deliver identical operational specs: 9,000 lb capacity, 14 lock positions, and 77 9/16" max raise height. The right choice depends on whether you want a permanent flush-floor installation or a faster-to-install surface option.
What electrical service does this lift require?
The SAE-UT9000 G3 requires a dedicated 220V, single-phase circuit with a 30A breaker. The control system runs on 24V low voltage, but the motor itself is 4 HP at 220V/60 Hz. If your shop is wired for standard 110V only, you'll need an electrician to run a dedicated 220V circuit before installation.
What vehicles will this lift handle, and are there clearance limitations?
The lift is rated to 9,000 lbs and the minimum platform height is 4 15/16", which accommodates most low-clearance passenger cars and performance vehicles. The platforms extend for longer vehicles, and the included rubber pads come in two thicknesses - 1 3/8" and 2 3/8" - to give you lift point flexibility across different frame heights. Overall runway width is 82 5/8" and runway length with ramps is 82 11/16", so verify your vehicle's track width and wheelbase before ordering if you're lifting wider trucks or specialty vehicles.
Does the lift come with hydraulic oil, and what type is required?
Hydraulic oil is not included. The SAE-UT9000 G3 requires AW32 or AW46 hydraulic oil. Have oil on hand before commissioning the lift - it won't operate without it. AW46 is the more commonly stocked grade and works fine in most shop environments.
How does shipping work and what should I expect on delivery day?
Shipping is free to all 48 lower states, including free liftgate service and residential delivery. The lift ships LTL freight. On delivery, you are responsible for unloading - the platform assembly alone weighs 2,037 lbs, so have a forklift or pallet jack available. Freight carriers allow 30 minutes for unloading; time beyond that may be charged by the carrier. Inspect the shipment before the driver leaves: note any damage or missing parts on the receiving receipt and photograph everything.
What warranty coverage does the SAE-UT9000 G3 carry?
The lift carries a tiered warranty: 5 years on structural components, 3 years on hydraulic components, and 2 years on electrical parts. Warranty registration may be required after purchase - refer to the documentation included with your lift for registration instructions and coverage details.
Is the lift tested before it leaves the factory?
Yes. Every unit is proof-tested at the factory: dynamic testing at 120% of rated capacity and static testing at 150% of rated capacity. On a 9,000 lb rated lift, that means dynamic testing to 10,800 lbs and static testing to 13,500 lbs before it ships.
Can I add a support bar or other accessories later?
Yes. A support bar is available as an optional add-on and is sold separately. Call us at (855) 498-2147 to confirm current availability and pricing on accessories before placing your order.
