Double Wide (DW) Hydraulic Lift Table Configuration Rules:
- The units making us a double wide lift table must be of equal capacity and travel, and must have the same width and length base frame.
- DW capacity equals the catalog capacity of a single unit, times 160%
- DW travel equals the travel of the base unit less 2″.
- The double wide scissor lift table lowered height equals base unit lowered height + 2″.
- The maximum platform width may be up to 24″ wider than the sum of the minimum platform widths of the base units.
- The maximum platform length may be up to 24″ longer than the minimum platform length of the base unit.
- Double wide hydraulic lift table side loads equal (the base unit side load x 2) x 60%.
- Side load capacity is reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform width of the DW unit.
- DW end load capacity is twice the capacity for a single unit.
- Lift table end load capacity is reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform length of the base unit.
Double Wide Specifications
- Capacities from 4,000 lbs to 12, 000lbs
- Platforms from 48″ x 36″ to 120″ x 120″
- Lowered Heights from 8.5″ – 12″
- Raised Heights from 30.5″ – 70″
- Travel Distances from 22″ – 58″
Double Long (DL) Hydraulic Lift Table Configuration Rules:
- The lift tables making up a double long (DL) lift must be of equal capacity and travel, and must have the same width and length base frames.
- DL lifting capacity equals twice the catalog capacity of a single lift provided that the platform is no longer than twice the length of the maximum platform allowed for a single unit.
- Factory engineers will reduce the capacity for units with extra long platforms. Consult your sales rep for exact capacities – 800-724-4052.
- DL travel equals the travel of the base lift.
- The minimum platform length is (2 x base frame length + 2″).
- DL side load capacity equals twice the base unit side load capacity.
- Side load capacity is reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform width of the base unit.
- DL scissor lift table end load capacity is the same as the base unit end load capacity.
- End load capacity is reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform length of the double long hydraulic lift table.
- Lowered height may increase for applications where the platform is not evenly loaded (contact Beaton for specific applications)
Double Long Specifications
- Capacities from 4,000 lbs to 12,000 lbs
- Platforms from 24″ x 74″ — 72″ x 336″ (28 feet long!)
- Lowered Heights from 6.5″ – 11″
- Raised Heights from 30.5″ – 71″
- Travel Distances from 24″ – 60″
Double High (DH) Hydraulic Lift Table Configuration Rules:
- Multi Stage Units, not to be confused with double-high units, cannot be stacked into DH units.
- The lifts making up a double high lift table must be of equal travel and both of their base frames must be the same width and length.
- The capacity of a DH Hydraulic lift table can only equal the capacity of the upper lift, when the lower lift capacity equals or exceeds the sum of the weight and capacity of the upper lift. If there is a shortfall in the capacity of the lower lift, this must be subtracted from the capacity of the upper lift to determine total unit capacity.
- The double high platform lift travel is equal to the sum of the travel of the upper and lower units.
- The maximum platform size may be up to 12″ wider than the minimum platform dimension and no longer than the maximum listed platform length for the upper table.
- The end load and side load capacity is equal to one half of the upper lift end and side capacity.
- Side load capacity is reduced by 4% per inch increase over the minimum platform width.
- End load capacity is reduced by 4% per inch increase over the minimum platform length.
- DH units with total platform travel over 72″, should use guide angles to reduce potential sway during loading and unloading operations.
- If personnel are going to ride the units, then handrails, gates and interlocks should be considered and local safety codes should be investigated.
- Scissor lift tables with internal power units will continue to have internal power units when they are stacked.
- The speed of the stacked hydraulic lift tables will equal the sum of the individual unit speeds.
Double High Specifications
- Capacities from 900 lbs to 10,500 lbs
- Platforms from 24″ x 36″ — 54″ x 84″
- Lowered Heights from 13″ – 24″

- Travel Distances from 48″ – 120″
Heavy Duty (HD) Series Scissor Lift Table
The HD-Series Scissor Lift was designed for higher capacity applications beyond the scope of the P-Series units. Included in the design is a patented “platform centering device”, which has been shown to triple the life of the lift. All controls are Underwriter Laboratory approved. The lift tables are fully primed and finished with a baked enamel finish. The hydraulic cylinders are machine grade with clear plastic return lines. All pressure hoses are double wire braid with JIC fittings. Hydraulic fluid reservoirs are made of mild steel for long lasting durability. All Heavy Duty series lifts conform to all applicable ANSI codes.

Super Duty (SD) and JUMBO (JSL) Series Scissor Lift – American Custom Lifts
The SD-Series lifts were designed as a step up from the HD series. Many of these models are modified dock lifts so you will notice that the edge of loading capabilities are often a higher percentage of the lifting capacity than is typical for smaller lifts. The JSL series units are a sampling of some of the very large special lifts that Advance Lifts produce. If you have a very large lift requirement that does match up with one of our Jumbo units, please call us and we will be pleased to quote on your exact requirements.
