Warranty

Warranty
Warranty basics
Challenger Lifts, Inc. (CLI) warrants its lifts to the original owner only; the coverage is not transferable. CLI will, at its discretion, repair or replace any part that is found on inspection to be defective during the applicable warranty period. Coverage applies only when the lift is installed, operated, and maintained in line with CLI's installation, operation, and maintenance instructions. Using unapproved parts or accessories voids the warranty, as does any repair attempted by someone who is not a CLI authorized service representative. Normal maintenance, adjustments, wear and tear, and damage from improper handling, abuse, misuse, or negligence are not covered. The warranty is valid only if the lift is registered with Challenger Lifts; registration must be completed online (challengerlifts.com/register-your-lift), otherwise the warranty period begins from the invoice date of purchase.
Warranty length
5 years on structural parts, 2 years on functional parts, and 1 year on labor. Structural parts include the carriage, columns, column extensions, overhead beams, arms, cross beams, runways, wheel stops, ramps, bolsters, sync rails, and plungers. Functional parts include power units, cylinders, sheaves, sheave pins, hoses, hydraulic and pneumatic fittings, cables, adapters, latches, valves, and controls.
Remedies and costs
Repair or replacement of defective parts is the exclusive remedy under this warranty. For the covered period, CLI also pays reasonable transportation and/or labor costs to replace those parts. This warranty is exclusive and replaces all other warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, which is expressly excluded. No employee, agent, dealer, or other party may extend warranties on CLI's behalf. CLI is not liable for special, consequential, or incidental damages arising from any breach or delay in performance of the warranty. The warranty is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Jefferson County, Kentucky.

FAQs

What is the maximum vehicle weight the Challenger 44040X can lift? ▾
The Challenger 44040X has a rated lifting capacity of 40,000 lb. This capacity is suitable for most medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles including refuse trucks, dump trucks, delivery trucks, and municipal vehicles. Never exceed the rated capacity, and always ensure the vehicle weight is evenly distributed on the runways.
What is the longest wheelbase vehicle that will fit on the 44040X? ▾
The 44040X accommodates wheelbases up to 430", with 410" between the columns. This extended configuration is the longest available in Challenger's 40,000 lb 4-post lineup, making it suitable for full-size refuse trucks, concrete mixers, and other long commercial vehicles.
What electrical service is required for the Challenger 44040X? ▾
The 44040X requires 230-460V three-phase electrical service. At 230V, the lift draws 28 amps; at 460V, it draws 14 amps. A dedicated circuit and proper disconnect must be installed by a licensed electrician. Three-phase power is standard in most commercial and industrial facilities but may not be available in residential settings.
How long does it take to raise a vehicle to full height? ▾
The 44040X reaches full rise height of 73" in approximately 70 seconds under normal load conditions. The 10HP three-phase motor provides consistent lifting speed even with heavy vehicles.
What is covered under the Challenger warranty? ▾
The 44040X includes a 5-year warranty on structural components (columns, runways, cross beams, ramps, carriages) and 1-year coverage on functional parts (power unit, cylinders, hoses, valves, controls) and labor. Warranty requires registration at challengerlifts.com and proper installation per Challenger specifications.
What is included with the lift purchase? ▾
The 44040X includes the complete lift structure with black columns, 32" diamond-plate runways, approach ramps, 10HP power unit, synchro-power hydraulic system, air-actuated lock release, lever controls, anchor hardware, and installation manual. Rolling jacks are available as optional accessories. Electrical work, concrete work, and installation labor are not included.
How is the Challenger 44040X shipped and delivered? ▾
The lift ships via freight truck with free delivery to commercial addresses in the 48 contiguous states. Lead time is typically 5-10 business days to ship, with delivery 2-4 weeks depending on location. A forklift (minimum 6,000 lb capacity) or loading dock is required for unloading. Curbside delivery is standard.
Do I need rolling jacks with a 4-post lift? ▾
Rolling jacks are optional but highly recommended for shops performing brake, suspension, tire, and drivetrain work. The optional 15,000 lb - 35,000 lb capacity rolling jacks allow you to lift individual axles off the runways for wheel-off service. Without rolling jacks, 4-post lifts are primarily suited for general inspection, fluid services, and undercarriage work.
What is the difference between the 44040, 44040E, and 44040X models? ▾
All three models share the same 40,000 lb capacity but differ in wheelbase accommodation. The 44040 handles up to 310" wheelbase, the 44040E extends to 370", and the 44040X offers the longest configuration at 430". Choose based on the longest vehicles you need to service. Overall length is 36' (44040), 41' (44040E), or 46' (44040X).
What are the concrete requirements for installation? ▾
The lift requires a minimum 6" thick reinforced concrete floor with 3,000 PSI compressive strength. The concrete must be fully cured (minimum 28 days) and free of cracks or deterioration at anchor locations. Consult the installation manual for specific anchor patterns and consult a structural engineer if you have concerns about your existing floor.
What does the synchro-power system do? ▾
The synchro-power system uses dual heavy-duty cylinders with lever controls that allow independent or synchronized control of the front and rear lift sections. This lets technicians level vehicles with uneven weight distribution, such as waste trucks with loaded rear containers or construction vehicles with heavy front-mounted equipment.
Is professional installation required? ▾
While not strictly required, professional installation is strongly recommended and may be required for warranty coverage. Proper installation ensures safe operation and compliance with local codes. Challenger lifts must be installed according to manufacturer specifications.
