"The Black Ice snowmobile lift stand elevates a snowmobile over 27"" providing plenty of room to do maintenance, repairs or seasonal storage. The snowmobile hoist fits easily under the sled when folded to a compact 6-3/8"", then is raised or lowered by turning the provided hand crank. The snowmobile's frame rests on two rubber pads and a rubber gripped cross bar for scratch-free support."
