Installation Procedure

1. Determine the location for the lift installation. Fig. 1 gives the overall dimensions

of the lift, including the drive on ramps. The area must be level and there must

be free access to load and unload the vehicles.

There must be enough overhead clearance to raise vehicles six feet above the

floor. Thirteen feet is the recommended ceiling height.

The floor must be 3000 psi concrete with a minimum thickness of four inches and

steel reinforced per local commercial practice. If pads are used, they must be

two feet square with a minimum thickness of twelve inches and steel reinforced

per local commercial practice. Fig. 2 gives the pad layout dimensions.

2. Refer to Fig. 3, General Arrangement. For muffler work, it is satisfactory to erect

the lift with the cylinder beam on the left, or drivers side. For alignment and work,

which require access to the front seat of the car, the top rail can be positioned on

the right side so it is out of the way.

3. Refer to Fig. 2 to get the dimensions for the post base locations. Refer to Fig. 1

to determine where to locate the sides and ends of the post base plate with

respect to walls and other obstacles at the installation. Include additional

clearance where required near walls and obstacles.

4. Once the location is determined, use a chalk line to mark base line A-B to locate

one side of the lift, refer to Fig 4. Use the width dimension from Fig 2 to measure

off the dimensions A-D and B-C. Draw arcs as illustrated in Fig. 4. Draw a chalk

line D-C tangent to the two arcs to establish the other side of the lift.

5. Mark on one of the two parallel lines the points 1 and 2 to establish the ends of

the post base plate as determined from Figs. 1 and 2. From points, 1 and 2

measure diagonally to the opposite parallel line to determine points 3 and 4.

Draw a chalk line between points 1 and 4 and points 2 and 3. The four lines

locate the four outside corners of the post base plates.

6. Position the cylinder beam and the two main side posts as shown in Fig. 5. The

main side post which has the drilled hole pattern on one side is the power unit

post. Bolt the cylinder beam to the main side posts using ½-13 x 1 3/4 bolts,

washers, and nuts (use shipping bolts). Use 2 bolts on the power post and 3 on

the other main side post.

7. Lift the assembled cylinder beam to the upright position. Place the post base

plate into their corners of the chalk line rectangle. Check the centering of the

bolting slots of the top rail and main side leg tops. Correct as necessary, the

main side post must be plumbed before tightening.

8. Review the concrete anchor bolt instructions near the back of this manual. Drill,

install, but do not tighten the 4 anchor bolts for the rear leg. DO ONLY THE

REAR MAIN SIDE POST AT THIS TIME.

9. Plumb the post so that it is perpendicular. Use the level and check both side-to-

side and front to rear. Use shims, 3/4" steel flat washers or 1/16 or 1/8 thick by

1" wide steel flat, strips are recommended for shims. Tighten the anchor bolts

and recheck for plumb. Adjust if necessary.

10. After anchoring the rear MAIN SIDE post, align the front post with the chalk lines.

Check and adjust plumb of the front post. The base plate may vary from the

measured dimensions slightly, but it is more important that the post be plumb and

parallel with the other post. Install the anchor bolts in the front main side post.

After completion of steps 8 & 9 tighten cylinder beam mounting bolts.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT DRILL OR SET OFF SIDE POST ANCHOR BOLTS AT THIS TIME.

THE LIFT MUST BE CORRECTLY ALIGNED AND CYCLED BEFORE THE

ANCHOR BOLTS ARE INSTALLED.

11. Position cross rails in their approximate locations. Note: The tapped holes on

the cross tube must be facing out for proper anti-sway installation. The

lifting chain connector must be at the MAIN SIDE post location. See Fig. 6.

12. Use a pull wire to pull the cross rail chain through the cross rail tube. The chain

runs over the sheave at the main side end and under the sheave at the off side

end. See Fig. 7. Repeat for the other cross rail.

13. Attach the cross rail chain to the main side post chain anchor with a 5/16 headed

pin and cotter key. Repeat for the other cross rail. See Fig. 6.

IMPORTANT

THE CROSS RAIL CHAIN MUST HAVE THE CENTER LINK AND IT MUST

BE IN A VERTICAL POSITION, NOT COCKED TO THE FRONT OF THE

CHAIN ANCHOR. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS REQUIREMENT COULD

RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

14. Position a 2 x 4 block under the safety latch on the main side end of the cross rail

as shown in Fig. 6. Remove the packing pin from the cross rail end assembly.

Install a 3/4 nut onto the safety rod. Turn down the nut to the bottom of the

thread on the rod. Insert the safety rod into the space previously occupied by the

packing pin in the cross rail end assembly. Insert the threaded end of the rod

into the rear hole at the top of the main side post. Secure the top of the safety

rod with a 3/4 nut. The top 3/4 nut should be flush with the end of the safety rod

and the bottom nut should be tightened against the post top cap. Remove the

wooden block. Repeat at each post.

15. Remove the cap from the front cylinder port. Manually extend the cylinder ram.

Attach the lifting chains to each cross rail chain connector using a 5/16 x 3 grade

8 shoulder bolt and lock nut. See Fig. 6.

DAMAGE.

16. Install the bolt end of the cross rail chain into the hole at the top of the off side

posts. Attach the 1" washer and nylon lock nut to the bolt. Hold the chain with a

crescent wrench and tighten the nut to remove most of the slack from the chain.

Repeat for the other cross rail.

17. Attach the power unit to the front main side post using the 5/16" hardware

provided.

18. Attach the hydraulic hose between the fitting at the rod end of the cylinder and

the fitting just above the power unit tank. Secure the hose to the cylinder with

the tie wraps.

19. Connect the power unit to a dedicated 30 amp electrical branch circuit, using

wiring methods prescribed by local codes. Refer to Fig. 8 for wiring schematic.

20. Using a funnel in the breather cap fitting on the power unit reservoir, fill the

reservoir with 11 quarts of clean petroleum or vegetable based hydraulic oil.

DO NOT OVERFILL THE RESERVOIR. The oil level should be no higher than 2

inches below the mounting flange of the tank. Check by removing the screw just

below the reservoir cap, and filling until oil comes out of the hole. Replace the

screw.

21. Using the power unit, raise the cross rails about 6 inches. Level the cross rails

by adjusting the cross rail chain tension at the top of the off side posts. Use a

level to check the cross rails.

22. Position the runways on the cross rails. Place the runways equal distance from

the center of the cross rails. 36 ½" Between the runways is suggested for model

24012LR, 38 ½" for all other models. Install the “U” bolts provided to each

outside corner of the runways, but DO NOT tighten at this time. If an oil pan or

jacking beam is to be installed, do not install the “U” bolts at the end the jack or

oil pan will be rolled on from until the equipment is installed.

23. Position the off side posts and plumb so that the cross rail chain in the off side

posts hangs straight, the lifting chains in the main side posts hang straight, the

cross rails hang in the center of the post openings and the runways are

positioned correctly on the cross rails.

DO NOT AT THIS TIME DRILL OR INSTALL THE ANCHOR BOLTS FOR

THE OFF SIDE POSTS. THE LIFT MUST BE CYCLED UP AND DOWN AND

CHECKED FOR CORRECT ALIGNMENT BEFORE THE BOLTS ARE

INSTALLED.
