INTRODUCTION 

Golden is proud to introduce the Tornado Lift to our line of 
lifts. 

This  lift  is  a  free-standing  adjustable  hydraulic  lift 
manufactured  with  T-6  marine  grade  aluminum  and 
stainless-steel hardware. This lift is ideal for freshwater and 
saltwater applications where shore power might be an issue 
or code regulations prevent piling or fixed structure lifts. 

We  weld  all  components  that  are  not  adjustable,  which 
prevents  premature  loosening  of  parts  and  there  is  no 
contact of dissimilar metals in a saltwater environment, we 
enclose our hydraulic shafts in our exclusive Air Bellow. The 

‘Air  Bellows’  prevent  any  harmful  particles  and  marine 

growth  from  damaging  the  hydraulic  cylinders,  seals  and 
shafts. 

We use only eco-friendly biodegradable fluid.  It is 100 % 
water soluble and meets the strict guidelines of the US Fish 
& Wildlife Service as non-toxic.
