Frequently Asked Questions
What ceiling height is required for the CL10-XP9-3 model?+
The CL10-XP9-3 with 3-foot column extensions requires a minimum 15-foot ceiling height. This configuration provides 176-inch overall height. Standard models without extensions require 12-foot ceilings, and 2-foot extension models require 14-foot ceilings.
What are the concrete foundation requirements?+
Installation requires concrete with minimum 4-inch depth, 3,500 PSI compressive strength, steel reinforcement, and 28+ days curing time. Level tolerance must be within 3/8 inch over the installation area, with anchors positioned at least 8 inches from any crack, edge, or expansion joint.
How does the drive-on pad design differ from standard arm lifts?+
