Factory Acceptance Checks for a Two-Post Vehicle Lift
Define pass or fail criteria for a two-post lift FAT using the stated capacity, height, pad and motor reference values, and agree test methods with the supplier before signing off.
A buyer specifying a two-post vehicle lift should decide up front which factory acceptance checks are pass or fail, not merely observed. Start with the rated lift capacity of 4,000 kg: will the test use a verified load, and what deflection or drift is acceptable over a defined hold period? Ask how maximum lifting height of 1,900 mm and minimum pad height of 110 mm will be measured, and whether the pads reach those positions under load.
For the 2.2 kW motor, agree the supply conditions and how raising and lowering times are recorded. Practical questions for the request for quotation or demonstration: which checks are witnessed, what instruments are used, and what evidence is supplied? Define acceptance as measured values within tolerances you set, with any deviation recorded as a fail pending correction.
Before requesting a quote, confirm with the supplier which tests are performed at the factory, the tolerances and test loads used, the documentation provided, and who witnesses and signs the acceptance record.
