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 are "upper components" on the EW12?
Upper components are the above-ground hardware that mounts onto an already-installed superstructure and pre-kit. This package covers the QuickCycle power unit, lift arms, screw pads, and column-mounted control panel. It does not include the superstructure or the pre-kit (tub and frame). Both must be installed below grade before these components go on.
What does QuickCycle do on the EW12?
QuickCycle speeds up the hydraulic lift and lower cycle times compared to the standard configuration. The base EW12 has a 63-second rise time. QuickCycle reduces that, helping you move vehicles through the bay faster. For high-volume shops running back-to-back services, the time savings add up across every job throughout the day.
How is the UC-QC different from the other upper components packages?
There are four upper components configurations for the EW12. This UC-QC combines QuickCycle hydraulics with column-mounted controls. The UC-BMC-QC adds bench-mounted controls to the same QuickCycle system. The UC-BMC uses bench-mounted controls with standard hydraulics. The base UC uses column-mounted controls with standard hydraulics. All four mount the same way onto an installed superstructure and pre-kit.
How is an upper components package different from a completion kit?
A completion kit pairs with a pre-kit to finish an installation where the superstructure is already in the ground. An upper components package assumes both the superstructure and pre-kit are already installed and connected. You're only adding what goes on top. If your pre-kit isn't in yet, you likely need a completion kit or less-superstructure bundle instead.
What needs to be installed before I can use this package?
Both the EW12 superstructure and pre-kit must be installed in the ground with concrete work completed and below-grade hydraulic connections made. The upper components mount directly onto the pre-kit framework. If your superstructure is in but the pre-kit isn't, you need a completion kit. If neither is in, you need the full system.
What electrical service does the completed EW12 require?
The system runs on 208-230V, 60 Hz, single-phase power with a dedicated circuit for the 2 HP motor. A licensed electrician needs to handle the wiring and verify the supply meets code before the lift goes into service. You'll also need 90 to 120 psi compressed air for the automatic safety locks.
Is the EW12 ALI/ETL certified?
Yes. The completed EW12 holds both ALI and ETL certification, confirming third-party verification of the lift's 12,000 lb capacity, structural integrity, and mechanical safety features. These certifications are recognized by insurance carriers, facility managers, and franchise dealership compliance programs.
Can the EW12 service electric vehicles?
That's one of its primary design strengths. The 88-inch drive-through clearance and 3-stage arm geometry allow battery pack access and lowering without obstruction. Double-telescoping screw pads with a 4" to 6.125" height range provide precise lift point positioning on EV platforms for high-voltage battery and drivetrain service.
How is this package shipped?
It ships via flatbed freight truck. You'll need a forklift or similar equipment for unloading since lift gate service isn't available. Deliveries arrive on a 48-foot semi, so confirm your site has adequate truck access. As an above-ground-only package, the shipment is lighter than a full system or less-superstructure bundle, but still requires proper unloading equipment.
How do I know which EW12 package I need?
It comes down to what's already in the ground. Superstructure and pre-kit both installed: this upper components package. Superstructure only: a completion kit or less-superstructure bundle that includes the pre-kit. Nothing installed: the full EW12 system. Want bench-mounted controls with your QuickCycle? Step up to the UC-BMC-QC. Call 800-736-6265 and we'll confirm the right match.
