Good fit if…
- You work on motorcycles, ATVs or similar equipment at or under 1,500 lb. The 20-page installation manual and the official MT1500X product page, both read November 10, 2026, list a 1,500 lb capacity.
- You want the 48-inch-wide table, which is the MT1500X: a 24-inch main table plus two 84 by 12 inch side extensions, per APlusLift's official specification table.
- You already have, or will supply, an air compressor, a hose and a foot-pedal fitting that can deliver 90-120 PSI. The manual states that the lift does not come with a compressor, a hose or the fitting to the pedal.
- You will use the table on a dry, level concrete surface. The manual forbids asphalt, expansion joints and cracked concrete, and later says to use a concrete surface a minimum of 4 inches thick.
- You will push the vehicle on with the table fully lowered, stay within the working temperature range of 41 to 104 F printed in the manual, and use the seven safety-lock positions plus extra stands when you work under a load.
- You will register and keep the 2-year parts warranty in mind as parts-only cover, and you will confirm that the live Amazon selector is set to the 48-inch MT1500X, not the 24-inch or 72-inch widths. See also our automotive workshop equipment hub.
Avoid if…
- You do not have an air compressor (or will not buy hose and pedal fittings). The manual says those items are not included and must be prepared by the customer.
- Your vehicle is over 1,500 lb, or you need the wider 72-inch MT1500XLT or the narrower 24-inch MT1500. Those are different widths in the same series; this page covers only the 48-inch MT1500X.
- You want an electric-hydraulic table. APlusLift's official page points that buyer to its Falcon 2,200 lb electric/hydraulic lift tables, and its FAQ says the 2,200 lb tables do not include a free service jack.
- You need a permanent parking stand, or you plan to work under the table without extra support. The manual says not to use the lift as a permanent stand, and not to work underneath without additional safety support devices such as tripod stands.
- You cannot accept parts-only warranty cover (2 years on the lift; 12 months on the included service jack, per the official page) with no labor warranty unless a listing explicitly adds one.
- The live listing is not set to MT1500X / 48-inch width, or the brand field is not APlusLift. This page covers only ASIN B075HTDCJQ in the 48-inch configuration.
What you are actually buying
The lift on this page is the APlusLift MT1500X, Amazon ASIN B075HTDCJQ, a 1,500 lb air-operated scissor lift table that is 48 inches wide with its side extensions installed. APlusLift's 20-page series manual, downloaded November 10, 2026, titles the MT1500 as the 24 by 110 inch table, the MT1500X as the 48 by 110 inch table, and the MT1500XLT as the 72 by 110 inch table. The Amazon page for this ASIN offers those widths as size options; you must confirm that 48-inch / MT1500X is selected.
The official product page, read the same day, says the table includes a front-wheel clamping vise, a drop-out tail, a three-stage adjustable front extension, a 20-inch approach ramp, two side extensions, anti-slip traction tape, and a service jack. Operation is pneumatic, through a butterfly foot pedal that APlusLift describes as having an auto-neutral position. The service jack is listed at 1,000 lb capacity, with a lowered height of 3.5 inches and a maximum height of 15 inches, and a 12-month warranty on the official page.
On November 10, 2026, a read of the Amazon US page showed an in-stock offer sold and shipped by APlusLift. A different width, seller or ASIN may come with different terms, so re-read before you buy.
Buyer Checkpoint has not assembled or run this lift. Every figure comes from APlusLift's official MT1500X product page, APlusLift's product FAQ (MT1500 / MT1500X / MT1500XLT section), the 20-page series manual, and the dated Amazon listing.
Spec conflicts to settle before you trust a number
Full rise height. The official product page and the Amazon specification table list a maximum lifting height, table top to ground, of 33 inches. The manual's specification table lists a lift height of 32 1/2 inches full rise. We show both figures and do not pick one.
Front-extension length. The official page and the Amazon table list table length without the front extension as 84 inches, with stage 1 as 97 inches, and with stage 2 as 110 inches. APlusLift's FAQ, in the MT1500 series section, tells the buyer to choose one of two fitting positions to make the table 96 inches or 110 inches long. The 96-inch FAQ figure conflicts with the 97-inch specification table. Measure the live table if overall length is the buying issue.
Shipping versus item weight. The official page and the Amazon product-description shipping line list a shipping weight of 600 lb and a carton of 88 by 26 by 17 inches. The Amazon item-weight field on November 10, 2026, listed 550 pounds. We show both.
Residential liftgate billing. APlusLift's official MT1500X page says free shipping to a commercial address in a business zone with a forklift on site, or free terminal pickup, and that residential or farm addresses with liftgate service cost an extra fee (curbside only). The Amazon listing the same day advertised residential liftgate service included and treated that service as a listed value rather than an add-on. Treat the live checkout freight line as the figure that matters, and do not assume a free residential liftgate from a dated Amazon bullet.
Buyer Checkpoint Fit score
Fit 89/100 for a US home or small shop that works on motorcycles or ATVs at or under 1,500 lb, wants the 48-inch MT1500X, can supply a 90-120 PSI compressor with hose and pedal fitting, and will use the table on flat concrete with the safety locks and extra stands. This score is not raised to fill a publishing slot.
Method: Buyer Checkpoint Fit score for the target buyer profile on the 30/25/20/15/10 framework (Use-case & safety / Documented capability / Integration / Ownership / Supporting evidence). It is an editorial score built from documents, not a laboratory or hands-on test. A hard stop for that profile overrides the total. Other profiles are described under “Avoid if…” without a second numeric score. See the public scoring method.
| Checkpoint | Points | Why this score |
|---|---|---|
| Use-case & safety | 26 / 30 | APlusLift documents a 1,500 lb rating, seven lock positions, a drop-out tail, a front vise, and clear bans on asphalt, overloaded or partial lifts, riding the table, and working underneath without extra stands. Points stay off 30 because the table is air-operated only with a customer-supplied compressor, and the manual forbids using it as a permanent stand. |
| Documented capability | 20 / 25 | A 20-page series manual, an official specification table and a FAQ section cover widths, air supply, the jack, assembly and safety. APlusLift's own documents disagree on full-rise height, stage-1 length and weight, and the official page disagrees with the Amazon freight bullet on residential liftgate billing, which holds this row at 20. |
| Integration | 20 / 20 | The table needs 90-120 PSI, a hose and a pedal fitting that APlusLift says the buyer must supply (the FAQ notes the pedal hole is 1/4-inch female NPT and that the cylinder-hose coupler will not fit a compressor hose). Assembly is mostly done, but the FAQ warns not to let the scissor frame sit on the cylinder hose. |
| Ownership | 13 / 15 | The manual and official page state a 2-year parts warranty on the lift. The official page gives the included service jack a 12-month warranty. Labor is not included unless a listing explicitly adds it. Unwanted returns in the lower 48 states carry a 10% restocking fee plus return shipping. |
| Supporting evidence | 10 / 10 | The official product page, FAQ and 20-page manual back the specs used here, and a November 10, 2026 read of the Amazon US listing showed an in-stock offer sold and shipped by APlusLift. Evidence stops at 10 because that read was not a delivery-ZIP 10001 recheck and no hands-on test was done. |
Total: 26 + 20 + 20 + 13 + 10 = 89. No 90-120 PSI air supply, a vehicle over 1,500 lb, a live listing set to the 24-inch or 72-inch width, or a listing that no longer reads MT1500X is a hard stop for this profile and overrides the 89.
Buying facts that change the decision
Each row pairs a sourced fact with what it changes for the buyer.
| Checkpoint | What the documents say | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Model on this page | APlusLift MT1500X, 48-inch width (24-inch main table plus two side extensions) | The Amazon selector also lists 24-inch and 72-inch widths; this page applies only when 48-inch / MT1500X is selected. |
| Capacity | 1,500 lb (manual and official page). Included service jack: 1,000 lb, 3.5-15 in (official page) | The manual says to know the vehicle weight first and not to exceed 1,500 lb, including dynamic loading. |
| Table size | 84 in long without the front extension; official/Amazon stage 1 97 in, stage 2 110 in; width 48 in with extensions | The FAQ's 96 in stage conflicts with the 97 in table; confirm if overall length matters. |
| Air supply | 90-120 PSI. Manual: compressor, hose and pedal fitting are not included | FAQ: the pedal hole is 1/4-inch female NPT; the cylinder-hose coupler does not fit a compressor hose. |
| Rise height | Official page and Amazon: 33 in table top to ground; lowest lock 19.5 in; minimum height 7 in. Manual spec table: 32 1/2 in full rise | Show both rise figures. The seven lock heights are listed on the official page. |
| Site | Manual: dry, level concrete, not asphalt or expansion joints; a later note requires a minimum 4 in concrete slab. Working temperature 41-104 F | The table is air-operated. The FAQ says lubricant oil in the cylinder can appear on the floor and should be wiped off; the table does not use hydraulic fluid as its power source. |
| Warranty | 2-year parts on the lift (manual cover and official page). Official page: 12-month warranty on the included service jack. No labor unless a listing says otherwise | APlusLift's general FAQ says labor warranties are not included unless explicitly stated. |
| Freight | Official page: free to a commercial address with a forklift, or free terminal pickup; residential liftgate is an extra charge. Amazon on November 10, 2026: residential liftgate included | Confirm the live checkout line. Delivery is curbside on a paved road; the official page says no placement inside a building or backyard in the standard terms. |
MT1500X vs the 24-inch MT1500 and the 72-inch MT1500XLT
The short answer: buy the MT1500X if a 48-inch table is the width you need. The MT1500 is the 24-inch table without those side extensions. The MT1500XLT is the 72-inch table, with four side-extension boards, aimed at wider ATVs, UTVs and snowmobiles. Capacity stays 1,500 lb on all three, per the series manual.
| Checkpoint | MT1500 | MT1500X (this page) | MT1500XLT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Width, per series manual / official pages | 24 in | 48 in (24 in table plus two 12 in side extensions) | 72 in (four side extensions, per the official XLT description) |
| Capacity | 1,500 lb | 1,500 lb | 1,500 lb |
| Power | Air, 90-120 PSI, compressor not included | Same | Same |
| Buy it when | A 24-inch table is wide enough for the bike | You need the 48-inch platform | You need the 72-inch platform for a wider ATV, UTV or snowmobile |
APlusLift's official MT1500X page also mentions Falcon 2,200 lb electric/hydraulic tables as a different line. Those are not scored here. This page does not recommend a width you have not measured against the vehicle you will actually roll on.
Air supply and site limits
Air comes first. The manual states a required supply of 90-120 PSI and says the lift does not come with a compressor, a hose, or the fitting to the foot pedal. APlusLift's FAQ adds that the factory changed to a pedal that can stop at a neutral position automatically, that the middle hole connects the pedal to the compressor hose, that the hole is 1/4-inch female NPT, and that the coupler on the cylinder hose is not the fitting for a compressor hose. You will need a matched coupler from a hardware store or from APlusLift.
The FAQ also says the table is mostly assembled: flip it, connect the cylinder hose to the pedal, connect the compressor, install accessories, and test it, and do not let the scissor frame sit on the cylinder hose. If you see oil on the floor, the FAQ says the table is air-operated and does not use hydraulic fluid; the factory adds lubricant oil in the cylinder to limit rust, and you may wipe it off.
The manual requires a dry, oil-free, flat, level concrete surface, forbids asphalt and expansion joints, and later specifies a minimum 4-inch concrete slab, ground floor unless an architect authorizes an upper floor, and no lifting of only part of a load. It also tells the operator not to work under a raised load without additional stands, not to leave a loaded lift unattended, not to use the table as a permanent stand, and to push vehicles on with the table fully lowered and with no passenger on the vehicle.
Warranty, returns and the freight conflict
The series manual's cover, read November 10, 2026, lists a 2-year parts warranty. The official product page states a 2-year (24-month) warranty on the 1,500 lb table and a 12-month warranty on the included service jack. APlusLift's general FAQ says labor warranties are not included unless explicitly stated in the listings. The Amazon legal disclaimer on November 10, 2026, also said parts replacement only, with no labor warranty on this product, and a 10% restocking fee on returns.
Freight is the term most likely to surprise a residential buyer. APlusLift's official page charges extra for residential or farm liftgate service and describes that delivery as curbside only. The Amazon listing the same day said residential liftgate service was included. Re-read the live checkout freight line rather than a dated bullet. Commercial addresses in a business zone with a forklift, or terminal pickup, are the free cases on the official page.
How to confirm the live listing without trusting a dated note
Open ASIN B075HTDCJQ and read the title, the brand and the size selector. You want APlusLift MT1500X with APlusLift as the brand and the 48-inch width selected. If the page is set to 24-inch or 72-inch, or names a different model, stop: this page does not apply.
Then confirm the current seller, the delivery date, the freight line for a residential liftgate, and the price on that same page. A November 10, 2026 read of the Amazon US page showed an in-stock offer sold and shipped by APlusLift. That read is not a promise that the same seller, stock, freight term or price will be there when you buy, and it was not a delivery-ZIP 10001 recheck. Adding the lift to your cart does not reserve it and does not lock a price.
APlusLift MT1500X verdict in brief
Each line below stands on its own and names its source date. None of it comes from a hands-on test.
- The APlusLift MT1500X is a documented fit as a 1,500 lb, 48-inch air-operated motorcycle and ATV lift table, because APlusLift's official product page and 20-page series manual (read November 10, 2026) list that capacity and that width.
- The compressor is not in the crate: the manual (read November 10, 2026) says the required air supply is 90-120 PSI and that the compressor, hose and pedal fitting must be prepared by the customer.
- Full-rise height is stated two ways. The official page and the Amazon table list 33 inches, table top to ground; the manual's specification table lists 32 1/2 inches full rise (both read November 10, 2026).
- Residential liftgate billing conflicts. APlusLift's official page (read November 10, 2026) charges extra for a residential or farm liftgate; the Amazon listing the same day said that liftgate service was included. Confirm the live checkout line.
- Warranty is parts-only: 2 years on the lift, and 12 months on the included service jack per the official page read November 10, 2026, with no labor cover unless a listing explicitly adds it.
- On November 10, 2026, Amazon ASIN B075HTDCJQ was titled APlusLift MT1500X with APlusLift as brand, and a read of the Amazon US page showed an in-stock offer sold and shipped by APlusLift; the 48-inch width must still be selected on the live page.

FAQ
Does the APlusLift MT1500X include an air compressor?
No. The 20-page series manual says the required air supply is 90-120 PSI and that the lift does not come with a compressor, a hose, or the fitting to the foot pedal. The FAQ adds that the pedal hole is 1/4-inch female NPT.
What is the difference between the MT1500, MT1500X and MT1500XLT?
Width. The series manual titles the MT1500 as a 24 by 110 inch table, the MT1500X as a 48 by 110 inch table, and the MT1500XLT as a 72 by 110 inch table. Capacity is 1,500 lb on all three.
How high does the MT1500X rise?
APlusLift's official page lists 33 inches from table top to ground, with seven lock positions from 19.5 to 30 inches. The manual's specification table lists 32 1/2 inches full rise. Both figures were read November 10, 2026.
Is a service jack included with the MT1500X?
Yes, on the official product page and the Amazon listing read November 10, 2026. The official page lists a 1,000 lb jack, 3.5 to 15 inches, with a 12-month warranty, which is shorter than the 2-year parts warranty on the lift.
Can I use the MT1500X as a long-term stand?
The manual says no. It tells the buyer not to use the lift as a permanent stand, to use it only while making repairs, and then to remove the equipment immediately. It also says not to work underneath without additional safety support devices such as tripod stands.
Is residential liftgate delivery included?
It depends on the live terms. APlusLift's official page, read November 10, 2026, charges extra for a residential or farm liftgate. The Amazon listing the same day said that liftgate service was included. Confirm the checkout freight line before you buy.

The November 10, 2026 Amazon read was not a delivery-ZIP 10001 recheck.
