  • Patent number: 11905151
    Abstract: A configurable service lift for servicing a utility vehicle in a cantilevered elevated condition. A carriage is carried on a vertical mast for travel between its lower and upper ends. The carriage independently supports the inboard and the outboard ends of the utility vehicle using at least one inboard platform and at least one outboard attachment carried on a boom. The inboard platform attached to the carriage and supports the inboard end of the utility vehicle. The boom extends longitudinally rearwardly to a distal lifting end upon with the outboard attachment is secured. The distal lifting end is moveable relative to the carriage in three directions—vertically, longitudinally and laterally. Retractable outrigger legs can be added for stability. The service lift can be a stationary fixture or configured with a towing package for mobile use. Optional tool holding accessories and an integrated waste oil receptacle are possible.
