INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Improper installation can cause accelerated wear, resulting in catastrophic failure which may cause property damage and / or bodily injury. Manufacturer will assume no liability for loss or damage of any kind, expressed or implied, resulting from improper installation or use of this product. Read this installation manual in its entirety before attempting to install or operate the lift. 1. Remove plastic wrap from top Runway and remove all hardware.
5. Now unbolt the top Mainside Runway (#3) taking the necessary safety precautions to support runway, as it will need to be flipped over. Note: Using some type of hoist is recommended to carefully flip the Runway over, so it’s no longer upside down. 6. Locate the Mainside Runway in your bay with the Hydraulic Fitting (#61) facing toward your previously chosen corner for the Power Unit. 7.
10. If you have means for securely lifting the Crossbeam, lower it into the tops of the Columns. If not, the Columns will have to be placed horizontally, in order to install the Crossbeams into the Columns. Then, the entire end structure (two columns and crossbeam) will need to be stood up as one. Top Cap Cable mount hole 11. Unpack the Lock Ladders (#11) (Fig. 5) from the package and slide them into the precut slot the Rub Blocks (#67) inside each column.
14. Stand up and arrange the two end structures (Columns & Crossbeams) so that the outside of the Crossbeam rail to the outside of the other Crossbeam rail measures 188.5”. Compare the measurements from the left and the right until they are diagonally within 1/2”. Note: The ½” variance will help in mounting the runways later. 15. Lift and position each Runway into place and secure to top of Crossbeams with the provided Hex Bolts (#24), Lock Washer (#25), Flat Washer (#26), as shown in Fig. 6.
16. Begin cable routing installation to Column Top Caps by first ensuring the pre-installed steel Cables are properly routed around each Cable Sheave and are not in a bind. Note: if Cable(s) comes off the Cable Sheave, it will be required to remove the Cable Sheave assembly to reinstall the Cable, due to welded cable guide brackets. 17.
18. Install Lock Rods & Linkage components per the drawing Fig.8. Also, install the Crossbeam Bracket (#96) to middle / outside of each Crossbeam and secure with the provided Hardware shown in Fig.6. Note: Crossbeam Linkage Rods may be pre-installed to Crossbeams. Also, ensure pre-installed T-Bar ‘linkage’ Rod is properly routed through guide ring weldments located on the underside of the Mainside Runway.
20. Install the “wire braded” Hydraulic Hose (#43) to the Fitting on the side of the Main side Runway and attach the other end to the 90 degree Fitting on the Power Unit as shown in Fig.2. 21. Now raise the complete unit (Lift) and set at one of the bottom lock positions. Place level on crossbeam. 22. Tighten Lock Ladder Rod Nut (#14) located on the top of each Column. This will raise the corner of the lift to adjust for leveling. Each Column has this adjustment. Adjust the proper columns to level the lift.
CASTER KIT ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION 1. Raise the Lift two to four feet high. 2. Assemble Caster assemblies as shown below. 3. Position each of the four Caster assemblies below the Crossbeam rails, as shown on page 6 and on Fig. 9. 4. Install the four Pivot Pins (#53) and Hairpin Cotter Pins (#52) to secure Caster assembly to each Column. 5. Lower the Lift confirming that the Caster assemblies engage the underside of Crossbeams and all four Columns rise to clear the floor.
FOUNDATION and ANCHORING REQUIREMENTS 1. Concrete shall have compression strength of at least 3,000 PSI and a minimum thickness of 4-1/4” 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 6-1/2” in any direction.
