EX Upgrade Kit for The MAXI

The MAXI is already the world's #1 steel dent repair station — trusted by collision technicians on every continent for its raw pulling power, versatility, and bulletproof reliability. But when you're spending hour after hour working dog-legs, rocker panels, and lower door skins, comfort and workflow matter just as much as power. That's exactly where the EX Upgrade Kit comes in.

Designed specifically for MAXI owners who are ready to work smarter, the DF-505UP delivers the three signature upgrades that define the MAXI EX configuration: a padded vegan leather seat that brings you to eye level with the repair area, two accessory trays that keep your consumables staged and within arm's reach, and an extended handle with integrated cable hooks that tames the power and welding cables so they stay out of your way as you move around the vehicle.

The result is a fundamentally better repair experience. Less bending, less searching for parts, fewer cable tangles — and more time focused on the repair itself. The MAXI EX configuration is proven to increase technician productivity while reducing daily physical strain. The upgrade is bolt-on simple, and the $265 kit price represents a savings of over $100 compared to buying the three components individually.

The EX Upgrade Kit is designed for collision repair technicians who own the Dent Fix MAXI (DF-505/220V or DF-505/110V) and perform light to moderate steel panel repair on a daily basis. It is ideally suited for shops where technicians regularly repair:

• Dog-leg and lower door panel damage

• Rocker panel and quarter panel collision repair

• Hail damage on body panels

• Crease and fold repairs requiring precise, eye-level access

• Any repair where the damage sits at or below the technician's waist line

The seated EX position places the technician at the optimal height and angle relative to lower panel damage, reducing fatigue and improving repair accuracy on every cycle.

Seat, Trays & Extended Handle in One Kit: A Everything you need to convert your MAXI to EX spec ships together in a single package. No hunting for individual parts, no separate orders — just one purchase and you're transformed.

Padded Vegan Leather Seat (DF-505MS): The contoured, padded seat is upholstered in durable vegan leather for all-day comfort. It mounts directly to the MAXI chassis, positioning the technician at eye level with lower panel damage — the natural ergonomic working height for rocker, dog-leg, and door repairs. Working at the correct height improves accuracy, reduces body strain, and cuts fatigue on long repair cycles.

Hidden Under-Seat Storage: When the seat is installed, a concealed storage compartment is revealed beneath it. This hidden space is perfect for stashing electrodes, spare pull keys, and other small consumables — keeping your most-used items secure, protected, and immediately accessible without cluttering your work area.

Dual Accessory Trays (DF-505AT x2): Two steel accessory trays mount to the MAXI frame, providing dedicated staging areas for your consumables, electrodes, and pulling tools. When everything is organized and within arm's reach, you spend zero time searching and more time repairing. Rapid deployment of the right tool at the right moment directly translates to faster cycle times and higher shop throughput.

Extended Handle with Integrated Cable Hooks (DF-505PHXT): The extended handle replaces the standard MAXI handle and adds two dedicated hooks specifically positioned to secure and route both the power cable and the handle/welding cable. Cable tangles are eliminated, the unit moves with ease around the vehicle, and the streamlined cable path reduces trip hazards. The result is a safer, more professional working environment.

Smart Storage — Hidden in Plain Sight When the MAXI Seat is installed, it creates a protected storage cavity beneath the seat cushion. This built-in compartment is completely concealed when the seat is in use and is ideally sized for the consumables and small accessories that technicians need most:

• Pull key electrodes and spare stud pins

• Wiggle wire and welding tips

• Shrinking electrodes and trigger switches

• Small measuring tools and markers

By keeping critical consumables secure beneath the seat — rather than scattered across a cart top or workbench —technicians eliminate the time lost searching for parts mid-repair. The hidden storage is a simple, elegant solution that keeps the work area clean and the technician focused.
