When
lifting RV aircraft, we know special care is needed to assure
safe and damage free lifting.
Fresh Aero
Aviation manufactures
lift systems for Grumman small aircraft and is now introducing a
hydraulic "EasyLift" for RV 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10 series aircraft
that will lift both tail and nose gear configurations with
safety and ease.
The Fresh
Aero RV EasyLift was developed to easily and safely lift each
main gear and wheel assembly without lifting the strut. Also, a
nose gear plug-in crossbeam to lift RV nose gears is almost
ready and will be posted on our web site soon.
The lift
points for raising the main gear with the EasyLift are the
standard forged or stainless steel tiedown eyebolts attached to
the spar - a common and very robust lifting hard point.
Innovative features
include .......
Six
ton heavy duty hydraulic cylinder coupled to a robust welded
steel support structure with a 17 inch square 11 gauge base to
enhance stability
Support structure is
heavily powder coated with a very tough and attractive hammer
finish. This finish looks great and will last a lifetime.
1 1/4 inch ram with 1 inch
diameter acme threaded rod for easily adjusting height prior to
lifting
Lifts at the
tiedown hardpoint, not the strut or wheel axle, for
excellent access when performing strut, wheel or tire
maintenance
Steel cup socket that
securely captures the 1 ½ inch OD tiedown eyebolts commonly used
on RVs
Balanced heavy duty
carrying handle for easy transporting and handling
Optional integrated caster
wheels on base for easy transporting. Just tip the lift and
roll.
Locking collar on ram for
added safety
Tool holder for jack pump
handles and locking collar wrench is integrated with base for
easy and quick access to tooling
No assembly required!
This Lift is not a
kit! The EasyLift is has a
one piece welded frame and is not bolted together like most
jacks. It works right out of the box. Just drop the acme
adjustment screw/cup socket into the extension ram and
you're ready to go.
Attention EAA
chapters and RV Groups
If there
are several RVs in your chapter or group, you may want to share
the cost and purchase an EasyLift to service all your aircraft.
This is an excellent way to keep your individual investment low
and still enjoy the benefits of one of the best RV Lift systems
available.
