Triumph NT-9 9,000 lb Two-Post Floor Plate Lift, Low Ceiling

The Triumph NT-9 is a 9,000 lb two-post floor plate lift built for the home garage and the small shop that needs full under-vehicle access without a tall ceiling. A floor plate runs between the two columns and routes the equalization cables and hydraulic hose along the ground instead of overhead — which is what lets the NT-9 work under a low ceiling where an overhead-style two-post lift won't fit.

Each column carries three-stage front swing arms that telescope in and out to reach the pickup points on a wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs. The lift rises to a 72-inch lifting height and settles to a 4.5-inch lowered height, so it clears tall work underneath and tucks its arms low enough to roll a vehicle over them. A dual-point lock release drops the column safety locks together.

The NT-9 ships ready to put to work: a 220V power unit and 3 HP motor, floor mounting hardware, and truck adapters are all included. The lift is rated for installation on 3,000 PSI concrete.

• Three-stage front arms — telescoping swing arms reach pickup points across a wide range of vehicles.

• Dual-point lock release — drops the safety locks on both columns together.
• Power unit and motor included — a 220V power unit with a 3 HP motor ships with the lift.
• Truck adapters included — raise the arm pads for higher-clearance pickups and SUVs.
• Floor mounting hardware included — anchor hardware ships in the crate.

• 220V power unit with 3 HP motor
• Floor (anchor) mounting hardware
• Truck adapters
• Installation manual (see Documents below)

The NT-9 carries a 1-year parts warranty — parts only, no labor. If a covered part fails, it is diagnosed over the phone and the replacement part ships free by ground service, with both the part and the shipping covered; labor to install the replacement is not covered. Hydraulic cylinders carry a 30-day full warranty, after which a seal kit is provided. Rubber lifting pads are not covered.

Will the NT-9 fit under a low ceiling?

Because the cables and hose run through the floor plate instead of an overhead crossbar, the only fixed dimension overhead is the 111-inch columns — you do not need the 12-plus feet an overhead two-post lift requires. Measure your ceiling against the column height plus the height of the tallest vehicle you plan to raise.

What are the power requirements?

The NT-9 runs on a 220V power unit with a 3 HP motor. The power unit and motor are included with the lift.

What concrete does it need?

Triumph rates the NT-9 for installation on 3,000 PSI concrete. Confirm your slab meets that rating, and check thickness and condition, before anchoring.

What can it lift?

The NT-9 is rated for 9,000 lb. The three-stage front arms and included truck adapters let it reach pickup points on a wide range of cars, trucks, and SUVs within that rating.

How does it ship, and can the driver unload it?

The lift ships LTL freight on a 48-foot semi and weighs about 1,303 lb crated. The truck driver does not unload it, and liftgate service is not available for auto lifts — you will need a forklift, tractor, Bobcat, tow truck, or similar machinery to take the crate off the truck. If you cannot unload at your site, the lift can be routed to the carrier's nearest freight terminal for pickup with a trailer or moving van, and you schedule the delivery appointment with the freight company directly. To arrange terminal pickup or ask about delivery to your location, contact MGS at sales@mygaragesupplies.com or 307-381-1810.

Can I install it myself?

The NT-9 ships with floor mounting hardware and an installation manual (below). Per the manual, do not drill the anchor holes until the cables and hoses are in place and the floor cover has been used to confirm the posts are the correct distance apart.
