A flat steel base, mounted level with or on the floor, is a feature of a collision repair system announced by Applied Power (UK) Ltd, which eliminates the need for high runways, lifts or pits. A damaged light commercial vehicle or car can be rolled or dollied on to the area from any angle, no vertical posts or beams being required. The system is designated the Korek FM-10 body/frame repair system.
Four corrective-pull hook-ups can be operated simultaneously or independently with the use of four automatic air-hydraulic pumps, hand pumping being eliminated. Four powerful 10ton rams are included in the system and pulls can be made to an effective height of 10ft simply by adding tubing to the set-up.
The base unit forms a complete anchoring system for making pulls from any direction around the vehicle from any point within the perimeter of the base unit. Push set-ups are also easily made as the base is completely flat and provides ample bearing surface for pushing or lifting the damaged vehicle.
Five diagnostic gauges are included in the system in addition to a variety of work-saving attachments. All components can be stored in a specially designed cabinet which is included as an integral part of the complete repair system.
