If you’re in the EV repair business, your shop needs an EV battery lift table. The battery pack on an EV is the heaviest part of the vehicle, and modifying a trans jack to remove one is unsafe. A proper lift table is essential… but it doesn’t have to be an expensive tool that only sees occasional use.
At the BendPak Garage Studio, we use the BendPak Mobi-EVS4500 mobile scissor lift table alongside a 10AP 2-post lift. This setup makes lowering and reinstalling high-voltage battery packs weighing up to 4,500 pounds simple and safe. And when we’re not servicing EVs, the Mobi-EVS4500 doubles as a versatile platform for ICE vehicle components.
Versatility Beyond EV Work
Multiple recessed anchoring points on the table surface accept modular fixtures, adapters, and accessories. This design allows the Mobi-EVS4500 to handle traditional powertrains, drivetrains, and bulky vehicle components in addition to EV batteries.
Powered by a heavy-duty 12-volt DC unit with a deep-cycle battery, the lift eliminates the need for cords or air lines. Its ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tabletop resists wear, insulates against electricity, and provides a low-friction surface so technicians can shift heavy components with ease. A single tech can raise the platform more than 6 feet in just 18 seconds using the attached controller. The Multi-Point Safety Lock engages automatically while lifting and disengages at the push of a button.
Screw jacks allow easy roll, pitch, and yaw adjustments, giving precise alignment and leveling for EV batteries or other components.
Adapter Kits That Transform the EV Battery Lift Table
The Mobi-EVS4500 includes adapter options that expand its capabilities:
- EV Lift Transjack Receiver Plate Kit: Four adjustable fixtures adapt to transmissions, drivetrains, or subframes (600 lbs. per fixture).
- EV Telescoping Lift Arm Kit: Four telescoping arms support large or awkward components (600 lbs. per arm).
- EVS Transjack Deck Mount Kit: Universal adapter plate for trans jack heads, drivetrain adapters, and fuel tank supports.
- RTJ-1/1100 Saddle Assembly: Adjustable transmission jack adapter for installing and removing drivetrains and differentials, with hold-down chains.
- EV Lift Multi-Point Support Assembly: Four independently adjustable arms with telescoping tubes, supporting up to 800 lbs. at full extension.
