The Katool KT-198L is a full-platform auto body frame machine built for collision repair shops that need precise, multi-directional pull capability without sacrificing shop floor flexibility. The tilt hydraulic lifting platform rides on tower wheels, so you can reposition the entire machine as the job requires — no fixed footprint, no working around it. Accessories and tools for body collision repair are included as part of the standard configuration.
The quick-fix clamp jaws secure to the chassis by tightening the shaft clockwise, reducing setup time between pulls. The leading arm is engineered to apply tensile force in multiple directions, which matters when damage doesn't follow a straight line. Light, flexible ramps make loading and unloading vehicles straightforward, and the support legs on the lifting platform keep the setup stable once you're working. Frame components are assembled using automatic robot welding for consistent joint integrity throughout the structure.
The KT-198L suits independent collision repair shops handling a steady volume of structural damage work, dealership body departments that need a dedicated frame machine without a permanent floor installation, and multi-bay shops where repositioning equipment between jobs is part of the daily routine.
