Vehicle lifting and support equipment for safe, efficient underbody access during automotive service and repair operations.
The engine hoist — commonly referred to as a cherry picker — is used to remove and reinstall engines and other heavy drivetrain components. It operates via a hydraulic ram connected to a folding boom arm, which is mounted on a wheeled frame for repositioning within the workshop.
Our engine hoists are available in fixed and folding configurations. Folding models allow the unit to be stored compactly when not in use, an important consideration for workshops with limited floor space.
| Lift Mechanism | Hydraulic ram with hand pump |
|---|---|
| Boom Configuration | Telescoping, multi-position |
| Frame Type | Fixed and folding available |
| Casters | Swivel casters with floor locks |
| Applications | Engine removal/installation, gearbox work |
A mechanic's creeper enables technicians to work comfortably beneath vehicles at floor level. Low-profile creeper boards with padded surfaces and smooth-rolling casters allow the technician to maneuver beneath the vehicle with minimal effort.
Combination creeper-seat units provide the added functionality of converting from a flat-lying creeper to a seated stool, useful when working at mid-height on wheel arches and engine bay components.
| Types | Flat creeper, Z-creeper, combination seat |
|---|---|
| Casters | Soft-wheel casters for smooth-surface use |
| Padding | Padded headrest on select models |
| Material | Steel frame with moulded plastic deck |
| Applications | Underbody inspection, exhaust, suspension |
