IMPORTANT NOTICE 1. Read this manual thoroughly before installing, operating, or maintaining this lift. 2. This lift is designed for indoor use only, and should not be installed in a pit or depression. 3. The floor on which the lift is to be installed must be 4" inch minimum thickness concrete, with a minimum compressive strength of 3000 PSI, and reinforced with steel bar. 4. The lifts have specific electrical equirements as described in the Installation Instructions section of this manual. 5.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. CARE MUST BE TAKEN as burns can occur from touching hot parts. 3. DO NOT operate equipment with a damaged power cord or if the equipment has been dropped or damaged until it has been examined by a qualified service person. 4. DO NOT let the power cord come in contact with hot manifolds or moving fan blades. 5. IF AN EXTENSION CORD IS NECESSARY, a cord with a current rating equal to or more than that of the equipment should be used.
22. ALWAYS ENSURE that the safety locks are engaged before any attempt is made to work on or near vehicle. 23. DRESS PROPERLY. Non-skid steel-toe footwear is recommended when operating lift. 24. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. This lift must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. Never connect the green power cord wire to a live terminal. This is for ground only. 25. DANGER! The power unit used on this lift contains high voltage.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS OWNER / EMPLOYER RESPONSIBILITIES • Shall ensure that lift operators are qualified and that they are trained in the safe use and operation of the lift using the manufacturer’s operating instructions; ALI/SM10-1, ALI Lifting it Right safety manual; ALI/ST-10 ALI Safety Tips card; ANSI/ALI ALOIM-2008, American National Standard for Automotive Lifts-Safety Requirements for Operation, Inspection and Maintenance; ALI/WL Series, ALI Uniform Warning Label Decals/Placards; and in the case o

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TOOLS REQUIRED 1. Rotary Hammer Drill Or Similar (If Anchoring) 2. 3/4” Masonry Bit (If Anchoring) 3. Hammer 4. Foot Level 5. Open End Wrench Set: Metric 6. Socket And Ratchet Set: Metric 7. Hex Key / Metric Allen Wrench Set 8. Medium Crescent Wrench IMPORTANT NOTICE! These instructions must be followed to ensure proper installation and operation of your lift. Failure to comply with these instructions can result in serious bodily harm and void product warranty.
Please note the differences on each side of the posts. The lock blocks extend further out on one side, this side should always face the inside of the lift. “X” Indicates your two options for Power Unit Location (Passenger Rear recommended). STEP 2 (Column & Cross Bar Installation) 1. IMPORTANT! DO NOT begin installation with lift close to wall. It is necessary to leave adequate clearance for installing safety linkage rods.
STEP 3 (Runway Installation) Fig. 5 1. Locate the runway with the cylinder attached underneath. This runway will be located adjacent the column with power unit bracket attached. 2. Position the 1/2" holes on the side of the runway near the power unit location. (See Fig. 5) 3. Line up the front of the cylinder runway with the cross bar bolt holes, then temporarily bolt in position using the M14 x 100mm hex bolt, nut and washers making sure to pass bolts through the front tire stops. (See Fig.

STEP 4 (Cable Installation) IMPORTANT! Do not damage the chrome cylinder rod during this process. This can ruin the seals of the cylinder resulting in fluid leakage 1. Inspect cylinder nut and tighten if necessary. Be sure to have at least 4-6 threads past the nylon on the nut. 2. Inspect cables to ensure proper lengths. All cables should have ID tags showing proper cable lengths. (See Table on page 11 for proper lengths.) 3.
sure to point the fitting towa ds the power unit. On the pipe thread side of the fitting use teflon tape or pipe sealer. DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE on JIC flared end. 5. Install the pneumatic push-to-connect 90-degree fitting at the cylinder port closest to the power unit making sure to point the fitting towards the power unit. On the pipe thread side of the fitting use Teflon tape or pipe sealer. 6.
STEP 7 (Connecting Safety Linkage Rods) Install the Linkage Rods as shown below, making sure to position the Safety Handle adjacent to the Power Unit. Pay careful attention to assemble the FRONT and REAR Linkage assemblies as shown. Improper assembly will result in Safety Lock failure. (See Fig. 10.1, 10.2 on previous page & 10.3 ) Fig. 10.3 Page 14 For technical questions, please call 877.432.
STEP 8 (Inspecting Pulley Guards) 1. After the lift is installed, lightly oil the cable roller shafts with lubrication (gear grease). 2. Before proceeding, double check to make sure the locking shaft collars for the cross bar cable pulleys and pulley guards are tightened securely. DANGER Locking Shaft Collar To prevent personal injury or death, cross bar lock collars must remain tight at all times.
STEP 9 (Anchoring: Optional) Proceed to Step 10 if not anchoring. 1. Concrete shall have compression strength of at least 3,000 PSI and a minimum thickness of 4" in order to achieve a minimum anchor embedment of 3¼". NOTE: When using (¾" x 5½") long anchors; if the top of the anchor exceeds 2¼" above the floor grade, you DO NOT have enough embedment. 2. Maintain a 6" minimum distance from any slab edge or seam. Hole to hole spacing should be a minimum 6½" in any direction.
POST-INSTALLATION CHECK-OFF ; Columns Properly Shimmed And Stable Anchor Bolts Tightened (Optional) ; Pivot / Sheave Pins Properly Attached ; Electric Power Supply Confirmed ; Cables Adjusted Properly ; Safety Locks Functioning Properly ; Slack Cable Safety secure and engaged.
STEP 10 ( Operational Test ) 1. Make sure power unit reservoir is full with 10-qts of AW-32 hydraulic oil or Dexron III or VI ATF. 2. Spray the inside of the columns where the slide blocks glide with a white lithium grease. 3. Press the UP SWITCH on the power unit. 4. The lift will slowly raise. 5. Once the lift starts to raise, simultaneously press the lowering handle at the same time you are pressing the raise button.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS PLEASE READ! LIFT OPERATION: To Raise Lift: 1. Position vehicle tires in the center of each runway. 2. Set parking brake and use wheel chocks to hold vehicle in position. 3. Before raising the vehicle make sure you replace the drive up ramps with the tire stops, make sure all personnel are clear of the lift and surrounding area. Pay careful attention to overhead clearances. 4. Raise the lift to the desired height by pressing the push button of the power unit. 5.
TO LOWER THE LIFT: 1. First, raise the lift to clear the safety locks. 2. Depress air safety release button and hold. (If not so equipped, release safety locks manually.) 3. Push the lowering handle and hold until the lift has descended completely. 4. If the lift is shaking, vibrating, or swaying, reduce the descending speed. WEEKLY MAINTENANCE: 1. Lubricate all rollers with general purpose lubricating oil. 2. Check all connections, bolts, and pins to ensure proper mounting. 3.
