1. UNLOADING PROCEDURE & LIFT PACKAGE CONTENTS For your information: All lift components are packaged together in one module held together by steel frames Optional accessories (ex. rolling jacks) are packaged separately. UNPACKING PROCEDURE: When the lift arrives on site: 1. If possible have lift unloaded in the installation area and on two 4"x 4" x 24" Wooden Blocks (required for unpacking). 2. Check for freight damage and report immediately to the trucking company who delivered the lift. 3.
2. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using your garage equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. Read all instructions 2. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or if equipment has been dropped or damaged – until it has been examined by a qualified service person 3. To reduce risk of fire, do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers of flammable liquids (gasoline) 4.
and lift area and remove all obstructions. Before removing vehicle from the lift or lift area, confirm an unobstructed exit. 10. DO NOT PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE OR INSTALLATION OF ANY COMPONENTS WITH OUT FIRST ENSURING THAT ELECTRICAL POWER HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED AT THE SOURCE OR PANEL AND CANNOT BE RE-ENERGIZED UNTIL ALL MAINTENANCE AND/OR INSTALLATION PROCEDURES ARE COMPLETED (ANSI 244.1).
3. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS & LIFT SPECIFICATIONS 12,000 lb. (5454 kg) Capacity - 6,000 lbs. (2727 kg) each Runway constant supply of 230V 1PH 60Hz 20A electrical power is required for this lift.
4. TOOLS REQUIRED & PRE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES TOOLS REQUIRED 30ft. measuring tape, chalk line and chalk, 2 x 4 ft.
EACH BASEPLATE MUST MAINTAIN A MIN.
5. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 1. Remove protective wrapping from the lift and clear installation area of packaging materials. Place two wooden blocks under the lift to enable fork lift or other access and to allow for removal of shipping frames. Unbolt steel shipping frames and remove from installation area. Take adequate precautions when working with runways, columns and other components. 2.
12. Powerpack Installation: Install hydraulic powerpack to mounting bracket on “front-left” post. Remove shipping plug. Run the hydraulic hose (which is already connected to the cylinder) to the powerpack using hose clamps already installed on the runways, crossbeams, and posts. Connect hose to hydraulic powerpack. 13. Open the hydraulic oil tank and add hydraulic oil (ISO 32). Close tank when filled. Oil cannot be shipped with the lift and must be provided by the installer.
17. Locate hardware to anchor posts in place. Place a nut and washer on each anchor, then with a hammer, tap one anchor into each hole until the anchor is fully inserted and the washer is resting on the post base. If shimming is required, leave enough thread exposed on anchor to plumb post. After all anchors bolts have been inserted, check posts for plumb. If adjustments are necessary, use shims to plumb posts and then tighten anchor bolts securely. 18.
FOUNDATION and ANCHORING REQUIREMENTS: Lift should only be installed on level concrete floors with no more than 3º of slope and a minimum of 4 inches (102mm) and 3000 psi (20.7MPa) concrete that has been aged a minimum of 30 days. A qualified person should be consulted to address seismic loads and other local requirements. Do not install the lift on asphalt or outdoors. Maintain a 6’’ minimum distance from any slab edge or seam. Hole depth should be a minimum of 4’’.
6. Operating Instructions & Lift Maintenance Insure this manual along with all operation, inspection and maintenance instructions are delivered to the owner/user/employer LIFT OPERATION: Before lifting a vehicle, insure all operators are qualified, have been trained and are following all safety instructions. Insure that every vehicle will be securely positioned on the lift. When using air/hydraulic rolling jacks, always use vehicle manufacturer's recommended lifting points (see picture below).
PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST Trained Lift Operator All lift operators must be fully trained and qualified to safely and effectively operate the lift described and covered in this manual. Absence of All Obstructions The total work area must be free of any and all obstructions and be generally clean of oil and debris. Visual Inspections Every lift operator must thoroughly inspect the lift noting any problem area. An inspection of the floor area and anchor bolts must also be completed.
LIFT OPERATION WITH A TYPICAL VEHICLE Lift Operation Perform pre-operation check list item by item Ensure lift is completely lowered Position vehicle on the lift Caution Avoid sudden "starts and stops" during loading and unloading of vehicle To Load a Typical Vehicle Position vehicle on the lift runways by using the approaching ramp. Make sure the center of gravity is located evenly between the columns. The individual axle weight should not exceed 50% of the lift capacity.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Maintenance is to be performed by factory trained lift service personnel only. The following is a minimum maintenance schedule: DAILY: Raise and lower the lift (with no vehicle) at the beginning of each shift to verify the runways are level, safety locks are engaging, and the lift is operating properly. Check all hydraulic fittings and lines for damage and leaks. Check electrical wiring for damage. Check all moving parts for uneven or excessive wear.
The following criteria will determine when a lifting cable is no longer acceptable for service: 12 randomly distributed broken wires in one lay or four broken wires in one strand in one lay in running ropes one outer wire broken at the contact point with the core of the rope, which has worked its way out of the rope structure and protrudes or loops out from the rope structure wear of one-third the original diameter of outside individual wires kinking, crushing, bird caging, or any other damag
Note: Attention shall be given to end connections. Upon development of two broken wires adjacent to socket end connections, the rope shall be resocketed or replaced. Resocketing shall not be attempted if the resulting rope length will be insufficient for proper operation. CABLE&LOCKING LADDER ADUSTMENT 1. Adjust cable with lift fully lowered. Loosen nuts and then tighten them on cable stud on top of column until each cable is not slack (slightly tightened). 2.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING The following are suggestions to consider if you have problems with the lift. Please call a qualified lift technician and/or a qualified electrician for further clarification and information. Problem Lift Will Not Raise or Lower 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Possible Causes Blown fuse or circuit breaker Incorrect voltage to motor Bad wiring connections "UP" switch burned out Motor windings burned out 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Lift Will Not Raise 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
Problem Slow Drift Down Possible Causes 1. Mechanical safety locks not engaged 2. Powerpack lowering valve contamination 3. Hydraulic system leaks Solutions 1. Raise lift to engage all safety locks then lower lift and confirm all safety locks are engaged 2. Back flush powerpack by opening manual overright valve. Engage "up" switch and down lever at the same time and run approximately 10 seconds 3. Check cylinder and all fittings for any hydraulic oil leak Lift Going Up Out of Level 1.
