WARNING

VERTICAL CLEARANCE

Check the height of the area where the lift is to be

installed. Clearance should be calculated based on

the full raised height of the lift.

Failure by purchaser to

provide adequate clearance

could result in unsatisfactory

lift performance, property damage, or personal

injury.

FLOORING

Be certain you have the proper concrete floor to

properly handle the loaded lift. Floor should be in

generally good condition with no large cracks,

spalling or deterioration.

Minimum requirements for concrete are 4 inches

minimum depth, with steel reinforcement, 3500

psi, cured for 28 days per local commercial

practice. Floor should be level within 3/8 inch over

the installation area. No anchors should be installed

within 8 inches of any crack, edge, or expansion

joint. If these conditions cannot be met, a pad may

be poured to accommodate the lift.

Check with local building inspectors and/or permits

office for any special instructions or approvals

required for your installation.

A qualified person should be consulted to address

seismic loads and other local or state requirements.

Failure by purchaser to

provide the recommended

mounting surface could result

in unsatisfactory lift performance, property

damage, or personal injury.

LOCATION

This lift has been evaluated for indoor use only with

an operating ambient temp. range of 5 – 40°C (41–

104°F)

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

For lift installation and operation it is necessary to

have a dedicated circuit with circuit breaker or time

delay fuse. Refer to wiring diagram for circuit sizing.

AIR REQUIREMENTS

This lift is equipped with an air operated lock release

system. The air supplied to the lift must be clean,

dry, lubricated, and regulated to 90-120 psi, FRL

(Filter/Regulator/Lubricator). The FRL must be

within 30 feet of lift. Failure to provide clean, dry,

lubricated, and pressure regulated air will void

warranty on pneumatic components.

FINAL ADJUSTMENTS HYDRAULICS

36) Lower the lift to the floor and raise the lift

approximately one foot.

37) Start with Idler side first. Slowly and carefully

loosen the bleed plug on top of the cylinder just

enough to allow the entrapped air to escape.

Repeat for power side.

38) Raise lift 6 inches. Repeat step 36 until no air

comes out of cylinder.

39) Pressure test hydraulic system. Energize power

unit, raise lift to full rise and continue to run

motor for additional 10 seconds. (NOTE:

pressure relief will make a high pitch squeal

sound for these 10 seconds.) Check hydraulic

system for leaks.

40) Energize power unit again for 10 seconds. With

a clean rag, wipe down both cylinder rods. (The

cylinders are shipped with a small amount of

clear anti-corosive lubricant that will be forced

out through the wiper when the lift reaches full

rise.) If lubricant is not wiped clean from the

cylinder rod, the cylinder will apear to be

leaking. SYNCHRONIZING CABLES

41) Raise lift and insure carriages lower into same

lock position.

42) Adjust synchronizing cables so the tension is

equal in both cables and carriages are firmly

sitting on locks.

43) Cycle lift to insure that latches operate

simultaneously. Adjust if necessary.

FINAL CHECKOUT PROCEDURE

44) Demonstrate the operation of the lift to the

owner/operator/employer using a typical vehicle

and review correct and safe lifting procedures

using the Lifting It Right booklet as a guide.

45) Return all provided literature (including this

manual) to the literature pack envelope and

deliver the envelope to the

owner/operator/employer.

46) Complete the online warranty registration (refer

to the included warranty statement).
