My question regards the arm that comes down to hold the scooter. On mine - 10 years old - the stopper has come off and the arm is piercing the floor of my scooter. I have not been able to afford a repair for that problem and I am afraid my scooter will be unrepairable by the time I can afford to fix it! Can you suggest a temporary fix??? Anyone???
Can you use the swing away with a scooter on it?... You will get a ticket cuz your licence plate is covered up and your back up camera is blocked, there is also a high probability of getting rear ended...
its been 9 months since you commented that... wanna go back and see if it makes any more sense now? There's clearly a license plate bracket that is lighted, so thats a non issue. Yes your backup camera will be blocked. if you cant back without that, then get off the road. "high probability " of getting rear ended? Why? brake lights are still just as visible as without it... people use these things all the time and have for years.
My AL-100 platform is now bent. When lowering my scooter the left side reaches the ground first. My truck was down for a year, soon as I began using this new lift the platform bent and looked warped. I have a Pride ZT10 that has two motors on the scooter why it can turn sharp on a dime and have four wheels. The ZT10 total weight is 250 pounds, which sounds fine below the weight limit, but the problem is the majority of the weight is the two motors in the back of the scooter, so way more weight on the left side where the AL100 warped. But paying $3,100 for this lift I am upset. No vehicle hit it, I added brakes and turn lights to the lift keep people back further. I can park the scooter on the AL100 opposite make the lift warp the other way or catch it when it is back level, then have a fabrication shop strengthen the lift with more cross members, but a customer should not have to do that.
It depends on how old the lift is. Newer lifts have the motor cover that comes apart in 2 pieces and its easy to replace. The older models are a little more difficult just because you're not able to split the box like the newer ones, you have to get your hand up into the cover. Both models will have a nut and washer on the backside of the key switch that you would take off to remove the switch itself and replace. Hope that helps you out!
I have this lift with the swing away,, but the connector to my battery does not fit, because I have a different vehicle than it was used for before. How do I get an adapter to connect the port on the wiring harness to my 2016 Ford Explorer to get power to my lift
It depends upon the accessories. Without the swing away, I have seen it priced at $1999.00 in the past, you will need to check for yourself. If you go to Harmar, it has a listing of dealers in your area. You will need a class 3 hitch. The lifts I have seen demoed operate using the push button on the lift only.
Bought my mobility lift through Marc's Mobility and the service is excellent! The price was right and Marc suggested if I got a prescription for the lift, then no tax! I needed it done quickly so Marc gave me the name of a place to have the hitch put on and then he made time to put the lift on as soon as the hitch was in place. Quality service and it came with a personal tutorial and some freebies I didn't know I would need!
Hi Amy, You can use a hitch bolt with a lock on it but then you will have some wiggle/play in the lift. Someone would have to come with a socket set and unbolt it and take it off. Unfortunately today people can steal nearly anything if they have their mind set on it.
Super

Ive seen someone attach a 2x4 to that treaded bolt and have that press down on the scooter.
Tge arme is not working on mine
What's a good price for this lift Marc,?
I like the hold down arm on this model. My Harmar has the ratchets on the corners and they're a pain.

No you never want to use the swing away with the scooter on it. Some states require a license plat extender but not all.

I live in Toledo, OH and would love to order one. Will it work on a Chrysler 200? Also what is the price?
So no electric wheelchair on the lift and why?
I'm wondering why this lift can't be adapted to accommodate a power wheelchair and tied down with ratchet straps
The one I have is just like that but it has the battery is on the lift and it has a ratchet strap and I got mind from the VA
how do you replace the key switch and toggle switch on the AL 100 ?
It depends on how old the lift is. Newer lifts have the motor cover that comes apart in 2 pieces and its easy to replace. The older models are a little more difficult just because you're not able to split the box like the newer ones, you have to get your hand up into the cover.

That doesn't look very secure
Should the scooter be covered when traveling?
Yes if you plan on experiencing any rain while driving. Here is what we recommend: marcsmobility.com/power-chair-cover.html
Will this work with the Jazzy type scooters?
There are some helpless people in these comments my goodness can't you search anything for yourself
How much does a used good as new AL-100 lift cost or go for? Thanks for the vid it was good.
Can it go thru a-Car Was with no Scooter?
It can get caught in the rollers and tear up the plastic box which is not cheap to fix. If its spray only your okay.

Send me pictures of what you have to info@marcsmobility.com
I have that but where's the ramp to it.
Does it affect your backing up camera when there is no scooter on the lift and you are just driving around with the lift/hitch attached to your car?
Yes it does block most all back up cameras, and 100% if its located by the license plate.
What does this thing cost installed? What class of hitch is required? Can this be operated by cell phone?
It depends upon the accessories. Without the swing away, I have seen it priced at $1999.00 in the past, you will need to check for yourself. If you go to Harmar, it has a listing of dealers in your area. You will need a class 3 hitch. The lifts I have seen demoed operate using the push button on the lift only.

How much is this lift?

It’s a motor. They don’t make silent ones. 🤣😂
What prevents a person from stealing this lift off of the vehicle?
Hi Amy,
You can use a hitch bolt with a lock on it but then you will have some wiggle/play in the lift. Someone would have to come with a socket set and unbolt it and take it off. Unfortunately today people can steal nearly anything if they have their mind set on it.
