Your thread has me noodling the nuances of proper lift installation. As a lift user, I always thought it was laughable how 8 bolts keeps all that potential energy in check, and for the most part it does. My brain goes to a concrete submerged steel matrix that connects with the lift much like structural rebar (if that's even a thing) giving the lift bases its support.

Curious what the manual recommends. I'm sure my solution is engineering overkill. See, I am leery of bolts in concrete for seismic reasons, especially if I'm under the lift when it starts shaking.
