Parallelogram Heavy Duty Vehicle Lifts
Mohawk’s Parallelogram Lifts handle the toughest fleet and transit vehicles with capacities from 50,000 to 100,000 pounds and track lengths from 26 to 48 feet. Each model can be installed surface-mounted or flush-mounted, allowing the runways to sit level with the shop floor when fully lowered for a seamless, unobstructed workspace.
Product Details
Heavy-Duty Capacity with Full Access
Mohawk’s Parallelogram Lifts are engineered for the heaviest fleet and transit vehicles, offering 50,000- to 100,000-pound capacities and track lengths from 26 to 48 feet. Models can be installed surface-mounted, recessed, or flush-mounted, and provide a full 63 inches of lifting height with completely unobstructed under-vehicle access. Optional air-hydraulic rolling jacks—rated at 25,000 or 50,000 pounds—deliver true “wheels-free” service for brakes, tires, and axles. All lifts are factory-plumbed for air lines and pre-wired for fluorescent runway lighting, so no separate 110-volt supply is required for accessories.
Rugged Design for Long Life
Recognized as the heaviest-built parallelogram lift in the world, Mohawk’s design uses large 7¾-inch hydraulic cylinders to reduce operating pressure and extend component life. Self-lubricating composite bearings and chrome-plated pivot pins provide maintenance-free operation, while a sturdy base design minimizes stress on the shop floor, allowing installation virtually anywhere. The open platform requires no structural cross-brace or torsion bar, eliminating trip hazards and the binding issues found in other parallelogram lifts. Hydraulic safeties, including pressure-compensated flow control valves and velocity fuses, add an extra layer of protection.
Advanced Control System
A computer-controlled synchronization system keeps the platforms level and can be programmed for different lift heights to suit a variety of vehicles, ceiling clearances, or technician preferences. Dual high-resolution, chain-driven encoders monitor lift movement 60 times per second, while an alpha-numeric LCD display runs self-tests at startup and presents all information in plain English—no cryptic error codes. User settings are entered directly at the console, with password protection for special configurations, and a 24-volt control circuit ensures operator safety. In the event of a power loss, a manual pump and valving allow safe lowering without external equipment.

Safety Locks
Mohawk safety latch racks are made of laser cut high strength T-1 steel, and assure safe smooth locking at all working heights.
Control Panel
Simple 3 button operation; Raise, Lower & Park (lock). 24 volt controls for operator safety, lockout standard, with easily programmable computer controls.
Starter Box
U.S. made G.E. internal computer & U.S. control components, simple wiring, 24 volt DC power, step-down transformer, fuses and starter box make the Mohawk parallelogram easy to operate, with nothing to maintain & readily accessible guaranteed parts availability.
Base Design
Mohawk base design assures stability is spread throughout the lift, and gives more strength than lifts which place all the load in one concentrated floor spot. Mohawk lifts require a minimal 6 inch thick concrete.
Space Savings
For ultimate shop space savings, the flush mounted parallelogram is installed recessed in a pit, making the lift invisible when not in use to maintain maximum shop work flow.
Flush Mount
For ultimate shop space savings, the flush mounted parallelogram is installed recessed in a pit, making the lift invisible when not in use to maintain maximum shop work flow.
