APPROACH 12' 0" (3658mm) minimum to nearest obstruction 12' 0" (3658mm) minimum to nearest obstruction Power Unit NOTE: Lift can be installed so power unit can column can be located on either side. However, to save operation steps it is recommended that it is placed on passenger side of lift. 9000 lbs. Floor Plate Lift 5 IN60001 Rev.
FOUNDATION and ANCHORING REQUIREMENTS 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 3 1/4”. NOTE: When using the standard supplied 3/4” x 5 1/2 long anchors, if the top of the anchor exceeds 2 1/4” 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 61/2” in any direction.
TOOLS & EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR INSTALL The installation of this lift is relatively simple and can be accomplished by two men in a few hours. The following tools and equipment are needed: • • • • • • • • • • • Hoist or Forklift (optional) Two 10’ to 12’ step ladders ISO 32 Light Hydraulic Oil (approx.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE STEP 1: After unloading the lift, place it near the intended installation location. STEP 2: Remove the shipping bands and packing materials from the unit. The Power Unit will be unpacked from the top. Note: Be careful not to drop power unit. STEP 3: Remove the packing brackets and bolts holding the two columns together (do not discard bolts; they are used in the assembly of the lift).
2. Keep the drill in a perpendicular line while drilling. 3. Let the drill do the work. Do not apply excessive pressure. Lift the drill up and down occasionally to remove residue to reduce binding. 4. Drill the hole to depth equal to the length of anchor. Note: Drilling thru concrete (recommended) will allow the anchor to be driven thru the bottom of foundation if the threads are damaged or if the lift will need to be relocated. 5. For better holding power blow dust from the hole.
STEP 10: Installing the equalizing cables: (see diagram below) Loosen the two Cable Retaining Bolts as shown. Route the first cable as shown. Tighten nut on one cable stud so that the end of stud passes the nylon on the nut. Pull the other end of cable and run nut on it. Repeat above for second cable. Once installed tighten the Cable Retaining Bolts. NOTE: DO NOT tighten cables at this time. Just start them on the threads.
STEP 11: Cylinder centering and chain installation: Make sure the “Tip” on the bottom of the cylinder is properly located into the center hole on top of the cylinder mount in base. STEP 12: Connect the Hydraulic Hoses and Fittings, as shown.

STEP 13: Mount the Power Unit on lift as shown. STEP 14: Mount the Floor Plate as shown below. Drill 3/8" holes using holes in plate as guides. Following drill steps/directions used when anchoring columns. Tighten to 25 ft-lbs. 3/8” Anchor Floor Plate STEP 15: Install the swing arms on the carriages using the included 1-1/2" diameter pins. Check for proper engagement of the arm lock – the teeth on the lock should fully engage the gear on the arm.
STEP 17: Remove the vented fill cap from the power unit and fill the reservoir. Use a Ten Weight (ISO AW32) non-foaming, non-detergent hydraulic fluid (i.e. Texaco HD32 or equal). The unit will hold approximately twelve quarts of fluid. If a replacement fill cap is required order from your distributor, a vented cap MUST be used. STEP 18: Electrical: Have a certified electrician run appropriate power supply to motor, Fig. A & B. Size wire for 20 amp circuit. See Motor Operating Data Table.

STEP 19: Do not place any vehicle on the lift at this time. Cycle the lift up and down several times to insure latches click together and all air is removed from the system. To lower the lift, both latch releases must be manually released. Latches will automatically reset once the lift ascends approximately 17” from base. If latches click out of sync, tighten the cable on the one that clicks first. STEP 20: With lift fully lowered, recheck power unit fluid level. Fill as required.
• Shall establish procedures to periodically maintain the lift in accordance with the lift manufacturer’s instructions or ANSI/ALI ALOIM-2000, American National Standard for Automotive Lifts-Safety Requirements for Operation, Inspection and Maintenance; and The Employer Shall ensure that lift maintenance personnel are qualified and that they are adequately trained in the maintenance of the lift.
the person’s name, at least 3” x 6” in size, an easily noticeably color, and states not to operate device or remove tag. If this device is a non-lockable circuit breaker or fuse, replace with a “dummy” device and tag it appropriately as mentioned above. 4) Attempt to operate lift to assure the lockout is working. Be sure to return any switches to the “OFF” position. 5) The equipment is now locked out and ready for the required maintenance or service.
When using your garage equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 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 cord or if the equipment has been dropped or damaged - until it has been examined by a qualified service person. 4. Do not let a cord hang over the edge of the table, bench, or counter or come in contact with hot manifolds or moving fan blades. 5.
Ensure lift operators review safety and warning labels prior to operating lift. 9000 lbs. Floor Plate Lift 20 IN60001 Rev.
Safety and Operating Instructions Only authorized personnel are to operate lift Read operating and safety procedures manual completely before operating lift. • Properly maintain and inspect lift in accordance to owner’s manual. • Do not operate a lift that is damaged or in need of repair. • Allow only authorized personnel in the lift bay. • Stay clear of Lift when raising or lowering (NO RIDERS) • Keep hands and feet away from pinch points at all times.
Refer to the manufacturer’s specific vehicle lifting points. Some vehicles display these points on a label inside the right front door lock face or are identified by triangle shape marks on the vehicle’s undercarriage, reference SAE J2184. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE The periodic Preventive Maintenance Schedule given is the suggested minimum requirements and minimum intervals; accumulated hours or monthly period, which ever comes sooner.
1. Check anchor bolts torque to 80 ft-lbs for the 3/4 in. anchor bolts. Do not use an impact wrench to tighten anchor bolts. 2. Check hydraulic oil level. 3. Check cylinder pulley assembly for free movement or excessive wear on cylinder yoke or pulley pin. 4. Check cable pulley for free movement and excessive wear. • Yearly Maintenance 1. Lubricate chains 2. Grease rub blocks and column surface contacting rub blocks 3.
TROUBLESHOOTING The common problems that may be encountered and their probable causes are covered in the following paragraphs: • Motor Does Not Operate Failure of the motor to operate is normally caused by one of the following: 1. Breaker or fuse blown. Repair or replace. 2. Faulty wiring connections; call electrician. 3. Defective up button; call electrician for service.
• Motor Hums and Will Not Run If the motor hums but fails to run, take the following actions: 1. Lift overloaded. Remove excessive weight from lift WARNING!! The voltages used in the lift can cause death or injury to personnel. In the following steps, make sure that a qualified electrician is used to perform maintenance 2. Faulty wiring..….... Call electrician 3. Bad capacitor..….. Call electrician 4. Low voltage........... Call electrician • Lift Jerks Going Up and Down 1.
