tighten one side a half dozen turns then the opposite side a half dozen turns. After getting both cables equally tight(YOU
SHOULD BE ABLE TO MOVE THE CABLES ABOUT AN INCH BACK AND FORTH WITH SLIGHT PRESSURE
LIKE A FAN BELT OR A BANJO STRING) raise the lift all the way up by pressing the UP Button on the power unit. Do
not bottom the lift out at the top by holding down on the switch.
•
Raise the lift off the latch(lock) by pushing the power button, this will enable you to pull each release cable ring
located at the bottom of both carriages. See Figure 6. Pull down on the lowering valve handle(lever) on the power unit and
lower the lift all the way to floor. Raise the lift again and listen for the clicking of the safety locks in each column.
Determine which side is slower and tighten the adjusting bolt on the opposite side carriage
. Remember to only tighten
a few turns at a time until the both locks click at the same time when raising the lift. Cycle the lift up and down. Repeat the
adjustment until the carriages are within a 1/4
”
of each other or the clicks are almost at the same time with each side. When
cables are adjusted properly they should be fairly tight.

FINAL ASSEMBLY
•
Check all bolts and nuts to make sure they are tight. Do not use an impact gun on concrete Anchors.
•
Check all fittings or leaks. If necessary, make sure the arm lock restraints are engaging properly and smoothly. If
not, tap the main lock forward or backward as needed with a rubber mallet to insure proper engagement on all 4 gears with
the arm restraint locks.
•
Cycle lift up and down to insure carriages are synchronized.
•
Place a vehicle on the lift and raise until swivel pads are contact with frame of the vehicle. Raise the vehicle about
3 feet and lower until the tires touch the floor. Keep raising and lowing the vehicle. Increase the height each time until the
vehicle is completely to top. This procedure pumps all the air from the system.
TESTING AND ADJUSTING LIFT
•
With the power properly hooked up and hydraulic oil in the Pump Reservoir, push the Push Button on the side of
the Motor to raise the Carriages off the locks. Release the Push Button and then pull the Lock Release Cable under each
carriage to release the locks. Run the lift all the way up and down two more times to bleed all the air from the system.
