hoists for both professionals and car-lovers.

Which 2-post hoists are best for a workshop?

At
Genesis, we believe the Bendpak XPR-10 series of medium-duty clearfloor lifts
is superior in terms of functionality and safety, and a great choice for
workshops.

In this
series there are both symmetric and asymmetric options to choose from,
depending on which part of the car’s underbody you need access to.

The
models in this range all have a lifting capacity of up to 4536 kilograms.

The
majority have a maximum rise of 175cm, but two (XPR-10AXLS Asymmetric
Clearfloor Extra Tall and the XPR-10XLS Symmetric Clearfloor Extra Tall) are
extra tall and allow for additional room underneath when working on a vehicle
and have a maximum rise of 190cm.

Bendpak 2 Post Hoist Features

While
there are many XPR Series Features we like, here are just a few stand outs:

• Padded safety shutoff bar overhead
• Safety locking points every 3 inches
• Automatic arm restraints
• Electric / hydraulic power
• Can be used with wide or narrow
  configuration
• Triple-telescoping arms

Which 2-post hoists are best for home garage use?

Bendpak’s
GrandPrix Series of
2-Post Light-Duty Home Garage hoists are our pick for use in home garages.

The
two-post hoists will be able to fit into most garages as this range is
available in three heights: short, medium and tall. They have a maximum rise of
147cm, 172cm and 198 respectively.

All
three types of hoists have a lifting capacity of just above 3175kg.

features we love about the GrandPrix Series:

Car
Hoist Brisbane Case Study

They
recently installed a BendPak HD-9 with Bridging Jacks for their Workshop

Here’s how
these guys found their experience with Genesis Equipment:

“We found the whole process really good, all the team there made everything extremely easy, can’t fault them. The hoist is reliable, great quality and does exactly what it’s designed to do. It makes our job a lot easier and is the right tool for the job and fits the purpose.

The whole team here at Komatsu are more than happy, in our business of workshop training we need to be up to date and this product is exactly that. Keep up the good work, the great service and we’ll be dealing with Genesis Equipment again in the future.”

matter what style of hoist – Clearfloor or Floor Plate – you have in mind, we
have the best range of Bendpak 2 post hoists available on the Australian

There
are also asymmetric and symmetric options in a number of different models, so
if you need to offset your vehicle on the hoist to get better access to a
different part of the car, an asymmetric hoist might be a better choice for you.

capacity, we may recommend stepping up a weight class to the Heavy-Duty

Bendpak Scissor Lifts

Genesis is the exclusive distributor for
Bendpak in Australia and can source any car scissor lift from the Bendpak
range.

With lifting capabilities ranging from
2700kgs to 5500kgs, to help ensure you get the right lift for you needs we
suggest asking yourself these three questions:

1. Do I need centreline access under the vehicle? This will help shortlist your perfect scissor lift. Some models in the Bendpak range don’t offer open centre access making them more suited to performing wheel and brake services.
2. How much height do I need to achieve?
3. What is the max vehicle weight I will be lifting?

Scissor Lift Alternative

EXPERT TIP: If you’ve had your eye on a
scissor lift, it’s also worth looking at whether a 2 post or 4 post vehicle
hoist will be more suited to your requirements. In our experience, some
workshops could exponentially increase their productivity and efficiency with a
better all-round lifting system and greater underbody access.

Find out more about our 2 post hoists here, or 4 post hoists here.

On the flipside, scissor lifts tend to
boast a smaller footprint and eliminate the need for bulky side posts found in
2 and 4 posts which may clutter your workshop or garage.

So, you’ll need to weigh up the pros and
cons for your personal situation to determine which style and model works for
you.

Mid Rise Scissor Lifts Australia

Top Tips To Create A More Profitable Service Department

Maintaining profitability in your service department is one of the best ways to ensure that your dealership turns a profit, even when new vehicle sales are off the boil. It’s true, the service department often gets overlooked and lost in the shuffle of daily operations, however, by doing a few easy things, you can ensure your service department gets the attention it needs to stay profitable and keep your customers coming back for more.

Get More Involved
Managers often have the tendency to only visit the service centre when something goes wrong. While understandable due to the service division being highly technical and service technicians can usually solve service problems on their own, the independent nature of the service department doesn’t mean that owners and managers should completely remove themselves from their day-to-day operations.

By talking to your service technicians, understanding the way their department works, and forming a rapport with the techs, you can create a better work environment while identifying areas of the service department that could use support or improvement.

Develop Your Digital Presence
The internet and social media play a huge role in our day to day personal and business lives. The easiest and cheapest way to be found online is to have a strong social media presence. Social media platforms, like Facebook and Instagram, can be set up easily and can be run internally, or by an external agency, quite cost effectively. Dealerships that post to their social media pages each day with interesting and uplifting stories, have a much better chance of being discovered online, which helps your business reach a larger pool of potential customers.

Never Stop Improving
Complacency can be a dangerous thing when it comes to the automotive industry. Just because something has been done the same way for the last 20+ years doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the right way to do it now. Taking an unbiased look at how your dealership is running and consulting other people within the company, can help to create newer and better ways of doing things and deliver or strengthen income streams.

Switch Up Your Suppliers
While loyalty is an admirable quality, if it’s costing you money, you could be doing yourself a disservice. It is important to regularly look at all the prices of your parts and materials. Making a spreadsheet that includes the supplies you need and their prices at each supplier may reveal that prices vary substantially between vendors and you may be paying much more than you should. If that’s the case, you can either switch suppliers, or ask them if they can match competitor price points. Everything from shop towels and engine parts, to hoists and jacks, should be looked at for potential savings.

Invest in Innovation
New, innovative products can potentially do more for a dealership’s service centre than you realise. Updating old technology or replacing antiquated servicing equipment can turn a small investment into a huge time and money saver.

Implementing one, some, or all of these tips, can do more than just increase service department profitability. They can help to bring you more business, make your employees happier, save time, money and so much more.

Top 3 Reasons Why Your Service Department Needs More Return Customers

As a business owner you understand the importance of customer retention and creating a loyal client base, however, many dealerships struggle with this practice in their service departments. As the cost of customer acquisition continues to rise, here is a refresher on why return customers are so important for your business.

Repeat Customers Spend More
According to business.com, repeat customers spend up to 67% more than those who are new to your business. With customer acquisition costing 5-10 times more than selling to a current customer, the quickest way to increase your bottom line is to encourage repeat customers. When the service department is trustworthy, convenient, and loyal, repeat business will add up over time. It is crucial for dealers to look at the potential lifetime value of a customer and invest in keeping them.

Repeat Customers Trust You
For new customer acquisition, you have to sell yourself, your dealership and your servicing. Even under the best circumstances, new customers will be guarded and sceptical of your advice and suggestions.

However, when working with repeat customers, those barriers to spend are minimised. If you are looking to raise your profits, focusing on repeat customers can be a cost-effective option.

New Customers Acquisition is Expensive
Advertising, discounts, and service specials are all expenses for a dealership’s service department. These expenses may be necessary, but they are not always profitable. Unfortunately, most new customers drive away with not much more than basic, routine, maintenance.

Your customer acquisition plan should look beyond that first visit and focus on retention in order to see costs fall. Long-term business success is built on customer loyalty, and dealerships are no exception to the rule.

A dealership’s service department has the ability to become its very own profit centre, independent of the sales department. If your service department has a solid customer base, it can help future proof your dealership and help carry you through the tougher times, but it all starts with customer retention.

Mitsubishi is Future Proofing their Training Facilities with Genesis

Genesis Equipment, in conjunction with Mitsubishi Brisbane, have been working hard on engineering the future in workshop spaces and transforming the Mitsubishi Brisbane division of their Australian Technical Training Centre facility.

Working closely with Mitsubishi, we have delivered on an intensive construction time frame for the installation project, delivering an automotive servicing facility that will complement Mitsubishi’s commitment to ongoing training.

The new training centre, now located at Tingalpa, will be the venue for further enhancing the capabilities of Mitsubishi’s dealer and servicing personnel, while simultaneously improving work efficiency and productivity through various trainings and simulations of daily operations.

With the automotive industry progressing at a rapid rate, Mitsubishi chose to pre-empt the evolution and future proof their business in anticipation of the increase technology and servicing growth requirements. On top ensuring a smooth move from South Brisbane to Tingalpa, Genesis Equipment supplied and installed 2 post vehicle lifts, workstation benches as well as mobile work benches for the project.

Strong local business advocate and Technical Training Centre Manager of the Mitsubishi, Nigel Palmer said, “So often businesses outgrow their facilities inside 4-6 years, and the cost is unsustainable. We have a strong vision for the next decade and beyond, so we chose the strategy of sustainable investment within reliable technology now, knowing it will pay off in the long run.”

Mitsubishis’ new Technical Training Centre servicing facility is the latest in Australia to install the Werther 2 Post Hydraulic Lifts. The highly sophisticated yet simple and dependable design requires very little service or maintenance for an overall lower cost of ownership and increased longevity. Coupled with the added safety features for their staff and increased benefits for education in safety, Mitsubishi see their investment as a safe bet.

Stephen Clifford, Sales Manager at Genesis Equipment said, “Mitsubishi Australia is ahead of his time. We engineered their vision and shaped the Brisbane workshop into a benchmark facility that has impressed Mitsubishi Australia wide.”

The new Brisbane centre is set to launch in late September.
