Key Highlights
The light duty Atlas 9KOHX lift is an economy designed overhead, clear-floor 2-post lift — and one of the best values in the two post lift market today. If you're a homeowner building out a garage workspace or a small shop owner looking for a dependable above ground automotive lift, the 9KOHX delivers the performance and reliability you need at a price that won't break the bank.
The reliable chain-drive cylinders and dual safety system make this the perfect choice for "Mr. Homeowner" or small commercial shops looking to service cars, SUVs, and light duty trucks. Whether you're performing routine oil changes, brake jobs, or more involved suspension work, the Atlas 9KOHX gives you safe, stable, professional-level vehicle access every time.
One of the standout features of the 9KOHX is its installation flexibility. The 9KOHX can be adjusted to two different height settings, either 11' 6" or 11' 10", allowing it to fit in almost any standard garage. This adjustable height makes the Atlas 9KOHX one of the most garage-friendly two post lifts available — ideal for homeowners and shops that don't have the luxury of extra overhead clearance.
The Atlas 9KOHX has symmetric columns and specially designed arms that can be set in either the symmetric or asymmetric position. This adaptability makes it easy to work on a wide range of vehicles without swapping equipment or compromising positioning. The asymmetric/symmetric arm design offers an extremely low lift pad position on the EZ-metric lift arm configuration. This low pad height will allow the operator to position the lift arms under most small cars (with low pick up points) and heavier pick up trucks — a must-have feature when servicing today's low-clearance vehicles.
Safety is built into every aspect of the 9KOHX design. The Atlas 9KOHX two post "chain over roller" lift has a spring loaded Secondary Lock System (SLS) that automatically engages in the event of a slack or broken chain. This automatic secondary safety lock gives operators confidence and peace of mind every time the lift goes up — a critical feature for both home and commercial use.
The 9KOHX is the perfect choice for those who demand the most lifting capacity at the lowest possible price. If you're searching for an affordable two post car lift, a clear-floor overhead lift for a home garage, or a budget-friendly commercial automotive hoist that doesn't cut corners on safety, the Atlas 9KOHX deserves to be at the top of your list.
