Receiving Inspection

Before attempting to use this fork lift adapter, thoroughly read and understand this manual. Completely remove

all tape and packaging. Inspect the adapter components immediately upon delivery. If shipping damage is

evident, inform the delivering carrier immediately and contact customer service.

Introduction

The use of this fork lift adapter is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means;

rather only by the exercise of intelligence, care and common sense can such hazards be minimized or totally

eliminated. It is therefore essential to have personnel involved in the use and operation of equipment who are

careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper use when

servicing motor vehicles or their components. Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping, or slipping of motor

vehicles or their components caused primarily by improperly securing loads, overloading, off centered loads,

use of the forklift adapter on other than hard, level surfaces, and using the forklift adapter for a purpose for

which it was not designed.

The employer, owner, and/or manager must make this manual available to all personnel using this forklift

adapter at their direction. They must read and understand the contents of this manual. If language barriers or

other limitations require, the employer, owner, and/or manager must read and explain the contents of this

manual as necessary to ensure that all such persons understand and observe the proper procedures for use of this

forklift adapter.

Installation Instructions

The adapter components are heavy and will require two people to handle. If using a

CLHM system different than referred to in this manual, consult the manual supplied with

the CLHM for information on setting up and operating the lifts.

1) Make sure the master on/off switch on each lift unit is set to the OFF position. Turn the master on/off

switch on the first lift unit to the ON position (see CLHM Owner’s Manual “Component Identification”

for location of the master on/off switch). The Home screen will be shown with a series of icons on the

screen. Select the Lift Program icon to start the program used to lift a vehicle. After initialization of the

Touch Screen, the below screen will be displayed.

2) Select the desired radio settings. The default radio settings will be the settings selected the last time

the unit was used. Push the up and down arrows on the right side of the screen to change the radio

frequency and/or channel, if needed. All units that will be used together as a lift system to lift a

vehicle must be set to the same frequency and channel. When the desired radio settings are shown,

push the Confirm button to advance to the next screen.

3) Read through the Notice that is displayed on the next screen. If the operator agrees with and

acknowledges the statements made on the screen, push the Accept button to continue setting up the lift

system.

4) The display then changes to ask you how many lift units are going to be part of the lift system. Push the 2 button

to set the lifts up as a set of two.

5) On the following screen, choose Adapter Mode in order to raise the set of two lifts full height. WARNING! Only use

Forklift Adapter Mode with a manufacturer supplied forklift adapter.

6) The display will now appear as shown below with a picture of a vehicle asking for the current lift unit’s

position relative to the vehicle. Select the round button with a number inside it that matches the current lift

unit’s position. Once the position is selected the position button will turn green to indicate the selection.

7) Now move to the second lift unit and turn the master on/off switch to the ON position. The same screen

shown in Step (1) above will appear.

8) Select the same radio frequency and channel as was chosen in Step (2) above by pushing the up and down

arrows on the right side of the screen. When the correct radio settings are shown, push the Confirm

button.

9) The display will now show the same screen as shown in Step (6) above. Select the round button that

matches the position of the current lift unit relative to the vehicle. The position that has already been

selected will be shown by a yellow colored button.

10) Once both units are initialized (radio settings and position relative to the vehicle selected) the lifts will be

ready to operate.

11) Raise the Lift Carriages about 10 inches and install the Lift Platforms as shown in the figure below.

Ensure the Lift Platforms are centered on the carriage and that they are properly hooked on the carriage,

and the Lift Platform Tabs are fully inserted into the appropriate Carriage Slots.

12) Align the lift units so that they will be as shown in the figure below when the Forklift Adapter is fully

assembled. Ensure that they are directly across from each other.

13) Pull the lift units apart until the center lines of the ramps and tire supports will be the same as the center to

center tread measurement on the forklift to be lifted as shown in the figure below. After adjusting, lower

the bases of each lift unit to the ground. Ensure the lifts and adaptors are properly aligned.

14) With the Lift Carriages raised, install the four Tire Supports as shown in the figure below. The Tire

Support Platform must set on the lift unit’s base leg and the front wheel must protrude from the Tire

Support Platform such that the platform is retained on the base of the lift unit. The Tire Support Platforms

should be back as far as possible on the lift unit’s base legs.

Rev. 3/7/2017

15) Install the ramps as shown in the figure below. Ensure that the Ramp Attachment Hooks are fully inserted

into the Tire Support Ramp Hook Holes and the ramps are able to contact the floor.

16) Lower the Lift Carriages completely and back the forklift up the ramps. It is necessary to have a spotter in

order to keep the forklift tires centered on the ramps and tire support platforms. Position the forklift front

to back so that the center of gravity of the forklift is as close to centered on the lift platforms as possible.

The center of gravity of the forklift must be within the ends of the Lift Platform. Raise the forklift until its

tires are off the tire support platforms by 2 inches. Rock the forklift front to back to make sure it is stable

and can be lifted safely.

17) Once the check is made in step 16 above, the forklift is stable, and forklift is securely positioned, then the

forklift can be raised. Not ensuring that the forklift is stable can result in loss of load, which can result in

personal injury and/or property damage.

Structural Inspection

Equipment must be removed from service and inspected for damage immediately if subjected to an

abnormal shock or load. Failure to heed this warning may result in personal injury and / or property

damage. WARNING

It is critical that each piece of the adapter and each CLHM lift unit be inspected regularly for any signs

of wear or damage that might affect its ability to perform lifts safely. Any equipment that appears to be

damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally must be removed from service

until necessary repairs are made. Call customer service if you need to have equipment serviced or if

you have any questions about how to address any wear or damage observed on the equipment.

The employer, owner, and/or manager are responsible for maintaining the forklift adapter system and CLHM

lift units in good, serviceable condition. Employees must be trained on how to inspect the equipment. Before

each use of a CLHM lift unit, the operator must visually inspect the lift unit for any abnormal conditions. Any

equipment subjected to an abnormal load or shock must be immediately removed from service and given a

thorough inspection. The employer, owner, and/or manager must inspect (or appoint a knowledgeable person to

inspect) all equipment regularly. Regular inspections should be made weekly (if the equipment is used daily)

or monthly (if the equipment is used only intermittently). Regular inspections should include the following:

Check for any visual cracks, chips or other signs of excessive wear on all pieces of the adapter and all

CLHM lift units.

Raise and lower the lift carriage through its full range (up and down)—it should move smoothly. If the

lift stutters when lowering (i.e., it moves in a jerky fashion) the slide pads may need to be re-lubricated.

Refer to the CLHM manual.

Inspect the lift unit slide pad and roller contact surfaces for damage, such as gouging, warping, etc.

All controls should operate smoothly and freely.

Inspect the lift unit for oil leaks. If oil leaks occur, investigate and correct the source of the leakage

(refer to the “Adding Hydraulic Fluid” section of the CLHM manual). WARNING! Clean up any oil

leakage immediately. Oil left on the floor can create a slipping hazard.

Inspect the down stop catch pawl to make certain it rotates forward and backward freely. If the catch

pawl does not move freely it may need to be greased. Refer to the “Maintenance Instructions” section of

the CLHM manual.

Check the positioning of the down stop catch pawl. Refer to the “Maintenance Instructions” section of

the CLHM manual.

If you are not sure whether any identified wear or damage is “serious”, DO NOT use the equipment. The time

it takes to determine whether or not the problem is “serious” or to repair the problem is small compared to the

time it will take to deal with the consequences of a lost load (which could include severe injury or death to

personnel).

For more information about the CLHM lift units, refer to the manual that was furnished with the CLHM lift

units.
