New Rotary Lift EFX60 In ground Scissor Lift Slashes Vehicle Downtime
Rotary Lift introduces the EFX60, a new heavy-duty in ground scissor lift that incorporates patented design features to make lift setup and operation faster and easier, resulting in more productive technicians and less vehicle downtime.
The EFX60 uses Rotary Lift’s patented universal style lifting saddle with flip-up adapters to
make lift set-up a breeze. The lift is compatible with the industry’s widest selection of
lightweight adapters, many of which are third-party certified. The EFX60 has an infinite adapter
adjustment range, enabling technicians to precisely position adapters exactly where they’re
needed for proper lifting. The adapters also swivel, making it possible to pick up vehicles by
either the frame or the axle. As a result, technicians using the EFX60 can properly lift and
service virtually any medium-duty or heavy-duty vehicle weighing up to 60,000 lbs.
“The biggest complaint we hear about other in ground scissor lifts is that they are difficult and
time-consuming to set up,” explains Doug Spiller, Rotary Lift heavy duty product manager. “We
designed the EFX60 to be faster and easier. Technicians can quickly set up the EFX60 with
one hand. That means they get to work faster, for less downtime.”
The Rotary Lift product development team spent two years refining the heavy-duty inground
scissor lift design for the EFX60. Part of Rotary Lift’s standard R&D process includes cycling a
new lift 20,000 times at capacity to ensure it meets the company’s strenuous durability and
performance standards. When existing heavy-duty scissor lift designs couldn’t stand up to this
intensive testing, Rotary Lift engineers developed a more robust lift. Knowing that scissor lifts
are more prone to wear than other lift styles, Rotary ran the EFX60 for an unprecedented
30,000 test cycles — the equivalent of 15 to 30 years of service life.

Containment Solutions pioneered a technology in 1965 to manufacture the first fiberglass petroleum storage tank. Originally our tanks were designed for the safe storage of petroleum and other combustible materials. In fact, our design work resulted in the UL 1316 standard which governs fiberglass tank manufacturing for petroleum tanks.
More than 40 years and 300,000 tank installations later, we continue to improve upon those processes utilizing today’s automation to develop new applications and products. Containment Solutions was built on the success of fiberglass petroleum storage tanks. However, we have expanded our product line to include the handling of lubrication oils, water, wastewater and alternative biofuels such as ethanol and biodiesel.
Fluid storage today is more challenging and necessary than at any other time in history. Whatever your needs may be, our staff will work with you to determine the best possible solution.

Harvey Industries was founded in 1946 primarily as a supplier of carbon monoxide exhaust hose, tubing, adapters and accessories for the automotive aftermarket. The demand for complete, custom designed exhaust systems for the rapidly growing number of car dealerships and service garages being constructed, prompted Harvey Industries to research, develop and manufacture various products for both underground and overhead carbon monoxide exhaust systems.
Currently, Harvey Industries is represented in all fifty states and Canada. Our expanded product line includes systems for all possible applications of carbon monoxide and fume removal, as well as all accessories necessary to fill every need. Custom designing is a daily occurrence for our engineering department and we are proud that all Harvey products and components are manufactured “In the U.S.A.”.
Rousseau Metal was founded in 1950 and, at the time, most of the work was by contract and custom fabrication in metal stamping. The operations began with 3 employees, and a factory of 15,000 square feet, situated on the south shore of the St-Lawrence River in St-Jean-Port-Joli, Québec.

Creating Solutions Before Rotary was a company, it was a solution.
Peter Lunati, a technician looking for a better way to repair a car, was inspired by the sight of a barber chair rising in the air. If you can lift a chair, why not an automobile?
Not even a year later, in 1925, Lunati built the world’s first automotive hydraulic lift. And Rotary Lift, the Company, was born.
More than 80 years later, Rotary has grown to become the world leader in lift productivity. Global operations extend from our headquarters in Madison, Indiana, throughout North and South America, Europe and Asia.
