BendPak P-9000LT β 9,000 lb Low-Rise Open-Center Pit-Style Lift, 220V
The BendPak P-9000LT is a heavy-duty 9,000 lb low-rise, open-center, pit-style lift designed to turn fast-lube pits and compact bays into full-service workstations. With dual-approach ramps, a low 3.15″ collapsed height, and frame-engaging, rubber-topped platforms, it delivers fast, stable lifting for many cars, SUVs, and light trucks within rating while keeping the center area open for true undercar access.
Open-Center Pit-Style Design
The P-9000LT is built specifically for pit-style and low-rise service environments. Its open-center layout and frame-engaging design make it ideal for oil-change facilities and service shops that want to add tire, brake, and suspension work without giving up pit access.
- Open-center design preserves access to the vehicleβs undercarriage.
- Frame-engaging platforms support the vehicle at proper lifting points instead of the wheels.
- Perfect for converting fast-lube pits into full-service bays with wheel and brake capability.
- Compact footprint helps you make the most of limited shop or garage space.
Surface-Mount or Flush-Mount Flexibility
This pit lift is part of a system that supports both surface and flush-mount installations. The P-9000LT is typically surface-mounted with extended approach ramps, while the related P-9000LTF version can be recessed for a flush, drive-over solution. With the proper configuration, you can tune the lift to your bay and workflow.
- Surface-mount use with extended approach ramps for pit-style or floor installations.
- Optional flush-mount configuration (via the P-9000LTF version) for recessed, drive-over setups.
- Ramps are designed with a gentle slope to help reduce contact with low ground-clearance vehicles.
- Mounts outside the pit rail so it does not interfere with the work area inside the pit.
Low Profile with Strong Lifting Range
With a 3.15″ lowered height and a 23.3″ platform lifting height (about 26.3″ with blocks), the P-9000LT offers a combination of easy vehicle loading and a practical service height for wheel and undercar work.
- 9,000 lb lifting capacity for many passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks within rating.
- Lowered height: 3.15″ (80 mm) for easier loading and low-profile operation.
- Lifting height: 23.3″ (592 mm) at the platforms.
- Lifting height with blocks: 26.3″ (668 mm) for added working clearance.
- Comfortable height for tire, brake, suspension, and undercar service in pit or low-rise bays.
Rugged Platforms with Rubber-Topped Surfaces
The P-9000LT uses heavy-duty platforms with durable rubber-topped pad surfaces and lift blocks to help protect vehicle frames and underbodies while improving grip. This frame-engaging contact style is ideal for quick, repeatable setups in high-volume shops.
- Platform length: 58.5″ (1,484 mm).
- Platform width: 24″ (610 mm).
- Rubber-topped pad surfaces for traction and protection at contact points.
- Rubber lift blocks included for positioning under OEM-recommended lift points.
- Reinforced upper platform construction to support inboard loading.
Remote Pneumatic Safety Lock Release
The P-9000LT uses automatic, multi-position mechanical locks that engage as the lift rises. When itβs time to lower, a remote pneumatic safety lock release allows you to disengage the locks and lower the lift with a push-button control at the console.
- Automatic multi-position safety locks engage as the lift raises.
- Air-operated lock release lets you lower the lift from a safe distance.
- Hands-free safety check system designed for quick, confident operation.
- Requires a suitable shop air supply for the pneumatic lock system.
1.5 HP Electric-Hydraulic Power Unit (220V)
A heavy-duty 1.5 HP electric-hydraulic power unit provides smooth lifting and lowering performance. The system is designed to run on 208β230V single-phase power, making it a familiar fit for many US service facilities and well-equipped home garages.
- Standard motor: 1.5 HP / 208β230 VAC / 60 Hz / single phase.
- Speed of rise: approximately 55 seconds to full height (varies with load).
- Electric-hydraulic operation for consistent, controlled movement.
- Multi-station and special-voltage power options may be available from the manufacturer.
Rugged Steel Channel Frame
The P-9000LT is built around a rugged steel channel frame that provides a wide, stable base for the 9,000 lb capacity class. When properly installed and anchored on suitable concrete, itβs designed to deliver repeatable performance in busy commercial environments.
- Wide-base steel channel construction for strength and stability.
- Heavy-duty scissor mechanisms designed for frequent cycling.
- Powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance.
- Engineered for indoor installation and use on properly rated concrete.

Safety & Installation Guidance
Any low-rise pit lift must be installed and used correctly to perform safely. The P-9000LT is designed for indoor use only and must be mounted on properly rated concrete and connected to a correctly sized electrical circuit and shop air supply.
- Have installation and setup performed or verified by qualified lift technicians.
- Confirm pit dimensions, concrete thickness, and strength meet or exceed the manufacturerβs minimum requirements.
- Use a dedicated 208β230V single-phase circuit sized per the power unit, installed by a licensed electrician.
- Provide shop air for the pneumatic safety lock system per BendPakβs air pressure and volume guidelines.
- Always position rubber blocks at approved lifting points and verify solid contact before raising the vehicle.
- Raise the lift to a mechanical lock position before working underneath, and always use wheel chocks and appropriate PPE.

Installation was a significant job, but now that the lift is fully set up and weβre used to it, Iβm very happy with how it performs every day.
With the anchors fully set, the whole lift feels like itβs tied into the slab and structure. I have complete confidence working underneath it.
The lift itself is excellent. The only annoyance was that the freight truck arrived near the end of an already broad ETA window.
The lift feels incredibly solid in daily use. A couple of assembly steps in the manual were a bit vague, but we figured them out with extra care.
In use, the lift is flawless. The freight communication was fairly bare-bones, but everything still arrived when it was supposed to.
