GrandPrix Two-Post Lifts 60 P/N 5900209 — Rev. D3 — Feb. 2020
About Safety Locks
Your Lift has 11 Safety Lock positions, spaced every four inches; having multiple Safety Lock positions
lets you lock the Lift at the best height for what you want to do.
A Safety Lock
position is when the Lift is engaged on both of the Lift’s Safety Locks at the same
height on both Posts.
Important: Always make sure both Safety Locks are engaged at the same height on both Posts.
You do not want the Lift engaged on Safety Locks of two different heights or the Safety
Lock on one Post engaged but the Safety Lock on the other Post not engaged.
Safety Lock positions are created by the Safety Lock Weldments, which are on the back of the Lift
Heads. Safety Lock Weldments hit the Safety Locks and then move past them as the Lift Heads rise.
Drawing not necessarily to scale. Not all components shown. Posts not shown for clarity. Offside
Safety Lock not shown.
As they move past the Safety Locks, the Weldments push the Safety Lock and the Safety Lock
Release Handle down (the Safety Lock Release Handle is found on the Powerside Post only). When
the Weldment is completely past the Safety Locks, the Safety Locks clank back into position between
Weldments. This happens each time Safety Locks are passed, so you will generally be hearing multiple
clanks as the Lift rises and lowers.
To engage the Lift on a Safety Lock position, wait until the Vehicle reaches the desired height for the
work you are going to do, then listen for the clank as the Weldments pass the next Safety Lock
position. When you hear the clank, release the Up Button and then hold down the Lowering Handle
(on the front of the Power Unit) for a second or two to back the Weldments down onto the just-passed
Safety Locks;
do not hold down the Safety Lock Release Handle.
⚠ WARNING Only leave the Lift either fully lowered or engaged on Safety Locks. If you leave
the Lift raised but not engaged on Safety Locks, the Vehicle is not
secure
. It could fall, possibly damaging the Vehicle, the Lift, and injuring or even
killing anyone nearby.
