Shipping Information

Your equipment was carefully checked before shipping. Nevertheless, you should thoroughly inspect

the shipment

before

you sign to acknowledge that you received it.

When you sign a bill of lading, it tells the carrier that the items on the invoice were received in good

condition.

To protect yourself, do not sign until

after

you have inspected the shipment.

If any of

the items listed on the bill of lading are missing or are damaged, do not accept the shipment until the

carrier makes a notation on the bill of lading that lists the missing and/or damaged goods.

If you discover missing or damaged goods

after

you receive the shipment and have signed the bill of

lading, notify the carrier at once and request the carrier to make an inspection. If the carrier will not

make an inspection, prepare a signed statement to the effect that you have notified the carrier (on a

specific date) and that the carrier has failed to comply with your request.

It is difficult to collect for loss or damage after you have given the carrier a signed bill of lading. If this

happens to you, file a claim with the carrier promptly. Support your claim with copies of the bill of

lading, freight bill, invoice, and photographs, if available.

Our willingness to assist in helping

you process your claim does not make us responsible for collection of claims or

replacement of lost or damaged materials.

Additional Products

There are additional products you can use with your Lift:

•Aligner. An Aligner is a hardware/software product that lets you perform wheel alignments. If you

already have an Alignment Lift, like the HDS-18EA, simply purchase the Aligner and you can start

performing wheel alignments.

Refer to the Aligner page on the BendPak website for more information.

•Rolling Bridge Jack. A Rolling Bridge Jack raises the wheels of a vehicle off the Runways of a

Lift, like an HDS-18EA, making it much easier to perform service such as brake jobs and

suspension work while the vehicle is still on the Lift.

You can raise two wheels off the Runways if you have one Rolling Bridge Jack. It takes two Rolling

Bridge Jacks to raise all four wheels off the Runways.

Refer to the Rolling Bridge Jack page on the BendPak website for more information.

•WSA-100 Air/Electric Workstation. The Air/Electric Workstation adds air and electric

capabilities to your Lift. It includes four electrical outlets and specialized air service outlets, among

other features. Refer to the WSA-100 Air/Electric Workstation page on the BendPak

website for more information.

Note that SKU 5210436 is optimized for the HDS-18EA Alignment Lift.

Components

The main components of your Lift include:

•Power Post. The Post that holds the Power Unit.

You must put the Power Post in the

Front left position

(refer to the drawing on the following page for orientation information). You

can tell the Power Post from the other Posts because it has two Mounting Brackets on it.

•The other three Posts. These Posts are interchangeable, although their Labels are different.

•Power Unit. An electric/hydraulic unit that connects to an electric power source and then

provides hydraulic fluid to the Hydraulic Cylinder that raises and lowers the Runways.

•Powerside Runway. The Runway on the same side as the Power Post. The Powerside Runway

has the Hydraulic Cylinder and the Cables under it.

•Offside Runway. The other Runway. It does

not

have an Hydraulic Cylinder or Cables under it.

•Utility Rails. Hold the optional Rolling Bridge Jacks.

Utility Rails must go on the inside of

the Lift.

•Crosstubes. One at the Front of the Lift, one at the Rear. The Crosstubes are hollow; the Cables

that raise and lower the Runways are routed through the Crosstubes. The Crosstubes are not

interchangeable: the Front Crosstube has a small opening (called a ‘Window’) that faces the inside,

the Rear Crosstube has a larger Window that also faces the inside of the Lift.

Windows open to

the inside of the Lift only

. Cables go into the Crosstubes through the Windows.

•Ramps. One for each Runway. Use them to drive onto and off of the Runways.

•Tire Stops. Located at the Front of the Lift, Tire Stops prevent the vehicle’s front tires from going

any further forward. Additionally, we strongly recommend chocking the vehicle’s rear tires.

•Turn Plates. Movable plates that go near the Front of each Runway; required for alignments.

You must orient both Runways so that their Turn Plates are at the Front of the Lift, whether you are

doing alignments or not.

•Filler Plates. Two per Runway, they sit on either side of the Turn Plate. Gives you the ability to

align vehicles with a wide variety of wheel sizes.

•Slip Plate. A large movable plate on both Runways towards the Rear of the Lift; used for

alignments.

•Safety Locks. Once engaged, they hold the Runways in position, even if the power goes out or

there is a leak in the Hydraulic Lines. Your Lift has 13 Safety Locks, spaced every four inches (100

mm). This lets you lock the Lift at just the right height for what you want to do. The Lift also has a

backup Slack Safety system; refer to About Safety Locks for more information.

Only leave

your Lift fully lowered or engaged on a Safety Lock.

•Pushbutton Air Valve. Holds the pushbutton that moves the Safety Locks away from the

Ladder so that they do not engage as you lower the Runways.

•Ladder. A piece of steel that is installed at the back of each Post. Each Ladder has 13 holes in it,

which are part of the Safety Lock system.

•Aligner. An optional, separate product that lets you perform vehicle alignments. Refer to the

aligner page on the BendPak website for more information.

•Rolling Bridge Jacks. An optional, separate product that raises wheels of the vehicle on the Lift

off the Runway, making it easier to perform brake jobs and suspension work while the vehicle is

still on the Lift. Refer to the Rolling Bridge Jack page on the BendPak website for more

information.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What kinds of vehicles can I put on my Lift?

Answer: Cars, trucks, SUVs; anything that fits on the Runways, up to 18,000 lbs (8,165 kg).

Q: What is an ‘alignment’ Lift?

A: A Lift with special components that allow it to be used to perform automotive alignments. The

HDS-18EA is an Alignment Lift. An alignment is an adjusting of the angles of a vehicle’s wheels to

the manufacturer’s specifications, which generally reduces tire wear and makes the vehicle drive

without pulling to one side. The HDS-18EA can also be used as a Service Lift or a Parking Lift. A

Service Lift gives access to the underside of a vehicle for maintenance tasks. A Parking Lift lets

you park one vehicle on the Runways and a second vehicle under the Runways.

Q: How long does it take to raise or lower the Runways?

A: About 75 seconds.

Q: Does the Lift have to be anchored in place?

A: If you are using it as an Alignment Lift, then yes, you must anchor it. If not, then it is up to you. A

four-post Lift is pretty stable, but for safety reasons we recommend anchoring it.

Q: How high does the ceiling have to be?

A: It depends on the height of the vehicles you are putting on the Runways and how high you raise

the Runways. If you are going to put a tall vehicle on the Runways and raise it all the way up, you

should measure, in advance, to make sure there is enough room.

Q: Does it matter if I drive my vehicles in front first or back them in?

A: We recommend driving your vehicle in front first, because that makes it easier to center the

vehicle’s wheels on the Runways. Nevertheless, you are not required to drive them in front first.

Whichever way you drive the vehicle in, remember to put the wheels at the Front of the Lift up

against the Tire Stops and chock the wheels at the Rear.

Q: Will the Cables really hold my vehicles?

A: Yes. Your Lift has .63 inch (16 mm) thick, aircraft-quality Cables (technically wire rope) that runs

through oversized sheaves, reducing friction on them and extending their life with minimal

maintenance.

Q: How long can I leave a vehicle on a raised Runway?

A: As long as you want. Once the Lift is engaged on its Safety Locks, gravity holds it in position, so a

loss of power does not make it come down; it is going to stay where you left it. You should always

leave your Lift either fully lowered or engaged on its Safety Locks.

Q: Can I install my Lift outside?

A: Your Lift is approved for indoor installation and use only.

Outdoor installation is prohibited

Q: How many Safety Lock positions does my Lift have?

A: 13, spaced every 4 inches / 100 mm.

2Can vary depending on wheel size.

3 The Lift supports less weight than its rated capacity when the vehicle’s wheelbase is shorter; this is

because the wheels of such a vehicle are closer to the middle of the Runways, where there is less

strength. For example, the maximum weight allowed on the Lift for a vehicle with a wheelbase of

135" is 50 percent of the Lift’s rated capacity (9,000 lbs when the rated capacity is 18,000 lbs).

4Special voltages available on request.
