What water depths work best for a hydraulic lift?
Ideal for 3–7 ft depths. Adjustable rack travel up to 68" means easy handling of fluctuating levels.
Can I use this for a tritoon or sailboat?
Yes — custom bunks and adjustable configurations make this lift perfect for pontoons, tritoons, V-hulls, and sailboats.
How far does the remote work?
About 40 ft with the standard remote, up to 100+ ft with the Bluetooth app, depending on your site.
Do I need special power?
Just a standard 12V group 27 marine battery (minimum 500 CCA). Ask your dealer for solar options to keep it charged.
Is it really lower maintenance?
Absolutely. Fewer moving parts, greaseable pulleys, and sealed hydraulics mean less wear and easier upkeep than traditional cable lifts.
Is there a limit switch?
No. When the cylinder is fully retracted, the lift stops lifting and the pump tone changes. When fully extended, it stops lowering and tone changes.
What is the remote range?
LiftTech specs: 40 ft with remote, 80 ft with app. In clear line of sight, often 80+ ft with remote and 100+ ft with the app.
Can the hydraulic pump be mounted on the dock?
Yes — hydraulic hose extensions and dock-mounting options are available.
Is the battery provided?
No. Dealers/customers must provide a battery. We recommend a 12V group 27 marine deep cycle battery with minimum 500 CCA or 160 amp hours reserve capacity.
