The ARCO AC-B30Y is a compact, portable mid-rise scissor lift rated to 3,000 kg for use with passenger cars and light trucks. The ultra-thin frame profile and wheel-free platform design make it an ideal solution for brake work, wheel service, tyre fitting, and undercarriage inspection tasks where a full-height two-post lift is not required or available.
Equipped with twin hydraulic cylinders, a pneumatic lock release, and electromagnetic lowering, the AC-B30Y gives operators reliable, controlled lifting and descent in a compact format that requires no permanent floor installation.
The AC-B30Y is particularly well suited to workshops with limited space or those that need a lift that can be stored out of the way when not in use. Its compact footprint and portable design allow it to be used in a bay and then moved aside to free up floor space for other work.
The automatic mechanical safety lock engages as the platforms rise, ensuring the vehicle is held securely at any working height. The pneumatic release requires deliberate operator engagement, providing a passive safety system that protects technicians throughout the working cycle.
The AC-B30Y is delivered fully assembled and ready to deploy. Connect the power supply and pneumatic air line and the unit is operational. No floor drilling or anchoring hardware is required.

Pneumatic Lock Release
The AC-B30Y brings mid-rise scissor lift capability to compact workshops with no floor modifications and no permanent footprint.
The primary difference is load capacity. The AC-B30Y is rated for 3,000 kg and is designed for passenger cars and light trucks, while the AC-B40AY is rated for 4,000 kg and can handle heavier vehicles. Both use the same ultra-thin, wheel-free scissor lift design with pneumatic lock release and electromagnetic lowering. Choose the AC-B30Y for lighter-duty applications and the AC-B40AY where higher capacity is required.
Yes. The wheel-free platform design lifts the vehicle at its chassis jacking points, leaving the tyres completely free and accessible. This makes the AC-B30Y well suited to tyre fitting, wheel balancing preparation, brake inspection and replacement, and hub or bearing work. The lift provides a comfortable mid-rise working height for technicians without the need to work at full two-post lift heights.
Yes. The pneumatic lock release mechanism requires a compressed air supply connection. A standard workshop air line at typical workshop operating pressure is sufficient. The electromagnetic lowering function is electrically powered. Both connections are simple and use standard workshop fittings.
The AC-B30Y can be lowered fully flat and moved to a storage area within the workshop when not in use. Its low-profile folded height means it can be slid under a workbench or along a wall, freeing up the bay for other vehicles or tasks. This makes it a particularly practical choice for workshops where floor space is at a premium.
