2.3.1 Design and Basic Functions The MA STAR 3.5 A/S two post lift consists of two industrially rolled columns with welded-on base plates. The base plates ensure the columns are securely anchored to the ground. The column profile bears the weight of the lifted vehicle, accommodating the lifting carriage on the inner panel and the control unit on the outer panel.
The lift drive consists of an electric motor with an electric release brake, which moves a Tr 40x6 spindle via a belt drive. A lifting or lowering movement is thereby triggered via the anti-rotation secured nut in the lifting carriage depending on the direction of rotation.
