About the project.
Zagame’s Audi and Cupra dealership at Essendon Fields, in Melbourne’s north-west, services both brands in one large multi-bay workshop. It runs on 22 two-post hoists: 19 Molnar CM245-AS asymmetrical hoists and 3 AUTOPSTENHOJ Maestro NxT hoists.
The hoists stand in long rows of numbered bays on a grey epoxy floor, with an overhead beam across each pair of columns. With no base frame between the posts, the floor of every bay stays clear for cars to drive straight in.
The CM245-AS lifts up to 4.5 tonnes. Its asymmetric columns and arms give the driver and passenger more room to open the doors once a car is in the bay. The Maestro NxT is the newer generation of the AUTOPSTENHOJ Maestro, a premium European hoist that lifts 3.5 tonnes.

Questions.
Something else you need to know? Ask our team.
What is an asymmetrical two-post hoist?
One whose columns and arms are set so the car sits further back between the posts. On the CM245-AS this gives the driver and passenger more room to open the doors.
Will the CM245-AS fit under a low ceiling?
Its standard total height is 4,220 mm. An optional low setting brings that down to 3,995 mm.
What power does the CM245-AS need?
Three-phase power at 7 amps, or single-phase at 20 amps with the optional single-phase motor.
Who installs and services these hoists?
Molnar Services install, service, inspect and repair vehicle hoists to Australian standards, including other brands that are compliant and design registered in Australia. See our hoist services.
