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 lift system is the EW10SS superstructure compatible with?
The EW10SS is engineered specifically for the Challenger EW10 (also referenced as EW1020) 10,000 lb capacity wide inground cassette-style lift system. This superstructure includes true 3-stage front and rear arms with 2,500 lb capacity per arm, double-telescoping screw pads adjustable from 4 inches to 6.125 inches, bolster assemblies, and all arm pins and hardware needed for installation. The EW10SS is not compatible with standard-width models like the EV1020 or different capacity ratings, as the wide platform has unique mounting dimensions and clearance specifications.
What is the difference between the EW10SS and a standard EV1020 superstructure?
The EW10SS provides an 88-inch drive-thru clearance compared to 87 inches on the standard EV1020 superstructure, and is engineered specifically for the wider EW10 platform that supports battery lowering operations on electric vehicles. The EW10 wide platform has different bolster mounting dimensions and overall width specifications than the standard EV1020, so the superstructures are not interchangeable. The EW10SS is the correct choice for shops that need to service wide-bodied vehicles like the RAM TRX, Hummer EV, Tesla Model X, and Ford Mach-E, or that plan to offer EV battery service.
What components are included with the EW10SS superstructure?
The EW10SS includes the complete above-grade lifting interface for the EW10 10,000 lb capacity wide inground lift. This consists of 3-stage front arms (pair), 3-stage rear arms (pair), bolster assemblies with premium powder coat finish, double-telescoping screw pads adjustable from 4 inches to 6.125 inches, and all arm pins and mounting hardware. The superstructure does not include the completion kit (chrome pistons, power unit, controls) or the lower cassette tub, which are sold separately and required for a fully operational wide inground lift system.
Can the EW10 platform lower EV batteries?
Yes, the EW10 wide inground lift platform is designed to support battery lowering operations on electric vehicles. The extra-wide 88-inch drive-thru clearance and the overall platform geometry allow technicians to safely lower EV battery packs through the service bay when the lift is used in conjunction with the appropriate battery lowering equipment and procedures. This capability is becoming increasingly important as electric vehicle adoption grows and battery service becomes a routine part of automotive maintenance in dealership and multi-brand service facilities.
What is the screw pad height adjustment range on the EW10SS?
The double-telescoping screw pads included with the EW10SS superstructure adjust from 4 inches to 6.125 inches in height, providing a 2.125-inch adjustment range within the standard pad assembly on this 10,000 lb capacity wide inground lift. This dual-adjustment capability accommodates a wider variety of vehicle pickup point heights without requiring separate stack adapter extensions, reducing adapter handling time during vehicle positioning. The extended height range is particularly useful for servicing the diverse pickup point configurations found across modern electric vehicles, wide-bodied trucks, and luxury platforms.
What types of vehicles can the EW10 wide platform accommodate?
The EW10 wide inground lift with the EW10SS superstructure is designed to accommodate the widest vehicles currently on the market within its 10,000 lb capacity rating. This includes wide-bodied trucks like the RAM TRX, electric vehicles like the Hummer EV, Tesla Model X, and Ford Mach-E, luxury SUVs, and exotic vehicles with specific pickup point locations. The 88-inch drive-thru clearance provides the extra width needed for these vehicles, while the 3-stage arms with 2,500 lb per arm capacity and double-telescoping screw pads ensure secure contact with manufacturer-recommended lift points across all supported vehicle types.
What warranty coverage applies to the EW10SS superstructure?
The standard Challenger Lifts warranty covers structural parts including the 3-stage arms, bolster assemblies, and related components when installed per manufacturer specifications on the 10,000 lb capacity EW10 wide inground lift. Warranty registration must be completed online within 30 days of installation, or the warranty period begins from the invoice date. An extended warranty is available for purchase within 30 days of lift invoice that extends functional parts coverage by an additional 3 years for 5 years total. Installation must be performed by an authorized Challenger installer following factory procedures and specifications.
How is the EW10SS shipped?
The EW10SS superstructure ships via freight carrier due to the size and weight of the wide bolster assemblies, 3-stage arm components, and associated hardware for the 10,000 lb capacity EW10 wide inground lift. Liftgate service is typically not available for this shipment, so you should have a forklift or similar material handling equipment available at your location for unloading. Inspect all packages carefully before signing the bill of lading and document any visible damage on the BOL before the freight driver departs to ensure proper damage claim processing if needed.
