The Katool KT-4H850 is an 8,500-lb four-post lift that runs on a standard 110V/60Hz outlet — no electrical upgrades required for most home garages. It's CE approved and load-tested to 115% dynamic and 150% static capacity, with the same dual-layer safety system found on the heavier lifts in this lineup. An optional 220V configuration is available for shop environments that prefer it. Note: requires a minimum 3.93" (100mm) concrete floor rated at 3,000 PSI.
The safety setup follows a consistent pattern: a single-point manual safety lock release drops all four columns simultaneously, while each column carries independent mechanical locks with both a primary and secondary locking point. The caster kit is included — not an add-on — which means you can reposition the lift within your garage without a full teardown. Two drip trays and a jack tray ship with the lift, so you're not sourcing accessories before you can start working. The power-side column installs on either side, front, or rear, and the non-skid diamond-plate platforms and adjustable safety lock ladders handle stability across different vehicle types.
At 8,500 lbs, the KT-4H850 covers the full range of passenger cars, crossovers, and lighter trucks — and the 110V operation makes it the most practical starting point for home garage builds that don't have a dedicated 220V circuit. It's also a solid fit for small independent shops that handle primarily passenger vehicles and want a certified four-post without the overhead of a higher-capacity machine, and for enthusiasts and collectors who need reliable storage lift capability alongside a working lift function.
