TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Product Description
The iDEAL TLX 7000 Floor Rail Kit is an option accessory designed for insufficient floor surfaces
such as uneven and/or rough concrete floor surfaces, allowing for proper & safe lifting operation. The
Floor Rail Kit can also be utilized to reduce any wheel travel marks or scratches for polished and/or
epoxied type floor surfaces.
The Tilt Lift’s travel wheels bear the entire weight of the lifted vehicle which can leave
unwanted markings or scratches on polished or epoxied concrete floors.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages or injuries resulting of incorrect
assembly or usage of the rail kit for uneven or unsuitable floor surfaces.
Never use on unstable floors, such as asphalt, muddy grounds, unlevel surfaces, not
reinforced, including rock or stone pavements with holes or surfaces with a tendency to
collapse.
The manufacturer and seller are not responsible for any injuries or damages that are the
result of incorrect usage of the product on an insufficient floor surface.
