Phoenix manufactures quality wheel service equipment at affordable prices. Have a look inside (above) a Phoenix tire changer you will see components such as metal air valves rather than plastic, a bead breaker cylinder built to last with 5500 lbs of force, a motor and transmission that run smooth without vibration that transfer plenty of power to handle even larger wheels, such as Ford F350. Foot control pedals operate metal air control valves structured for long trouble-free operation, unlike many higher priced products that use plastic valving but charge a premium price, perform no better, and do not last. Comparing Phoenix equipment with the big names you will learn Phoenix offers the same quality at a lower price (no big food chain to feed). We also offer better service; when you call, we answer. You won't need to leave a message or pay ridiculous prices for replacement parts. The top of the machine uses a large turntable (24" or 26"), thick and rugged to handle large wheels. Behind the wheel clamps there are air jets, the part of the bead blaster which assists in seating the bead for mounting tires. The air supply tank is housed in the upright tower, eliminating the need for an exterior tank. The adjustable air regulator and water trap is mounted beside the automatic oiler, which is necessary to keep the machine lubricated - where there is compressed air, there is often moisture. The oiler drips oil into the machine each time you use a foot pedal function, spreading lubricant throughout the system and limiting wear on parts. It is easy to fill, just spin off the reservoir, on and off in a minute. Strong large cylinders under the turntable move the rim clamps in and out and provide a solid grip on wheels. Of course, the steel duck head -- which removes and installs the tire on the wheel -- is lined with plastic inserts to protect against damage to wheels. Included as a standard piece is an all plastic duck head you can install when working with high end wheels which are fragile. All other brands charge dearly for this as an option, usually $70-$100.00. So why spend more? These machines will perform just as well as the $3,000.00 machines available from the big names. We offer the same service and parts availability, but don't demand the higher price. Try one - you will see for yourself. Oh yeah, we'll ship it free too!

"It took me some time to get things situated in my garage so that I could get my 2014 Harley Davidson Limited on it, and I wanted to take some time with my lift before I made a hasty review. Having worked in a Harley dealership as the Service Mgr., I was familiar with lifts that look like this one, but cost 3 to 4 times as much. This lift performs just like those lifts did, except this one has the rear tire dropout and roller plate that they didn't, and also came with a frame jack included as well. Been wanting one ever since I left the H-D Shop here in Danville and just got it this year. If you want one, be sure to check out Clark Heintz. Best lifts and prices I found anywhere and the quality is top notch! And most of the time he offers FREE Shipping on the lifts. And he has packages that include extras like bike frame jacks to raise the bike on the lift and a rear roller plate. I added a Condor front wheel chock to make getting the bike on and off easier with one person. Give Clark a call, you won't go wrong! Thanks Clark for a quality product that I look forward to using for years to come! I hope to be able to send you some pictures of my bike on my lift soon."

"I purchased a Pro 1200Max in early February. I wanted to get some time with my lift before I made a hasty review, I had done all the research for pretty much any lift available and chose NH Pro for all the right reasons .... price, quality and customer service. My expectations have all been met! I should have purchased a lift years ago. Ain't as young as I use to be and maintaining 3 motorcycles, 2 garden tractors, 2 quads and a host of other gizmos just does not bode well with the required body contortions. I just finished replacing oil lines, wheel bearings and seals, and front fender on my 86' FLT. I just can't imagine attempting that with my MC floor jack. I know I changed work level 10 times during the job, how nice that was. If you're shopping a lift table, give Clark a call, you won't go wrong!!"

Thanks to Drew for sharing pics of his bikes - a 2011 Ultra Limited and a 1977 rebuild - being lifted for service on the PRO 1200 Motorcycle Lift Table.
