top
of the Power
Disconnect Switch.
4. Have an Electrician connect your selected VAC power source to the
bottom
of the Power
Disconnect Switch.
Refer to
Wiring Diagrams for proper wiring information. Note that the cord from the power

⚠
DANGER All wiring must be performed by a licensed, certified Electrician. Do not perform
any
maintenance or installation on the lift without first making sure that main
electrical power has been disconnected from the lift and
cannot
be re-energized
until all procedures are complete.
Important electrical information:
•
Improper electrical installation can damage the Power Unit motor; this damage is not covered
under warranty.
• Use a separate circuit breaker for each Power Unit.
• Protect each circuit with a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
–
For a 220 VAC, single phase circuit, use a 25 amp or greater fuse.
– For a 380 VAC, three-phase circuit, use a 20 amp or greater fuse.
• Position the Power Unit near the circuit breaker and incoming power source; for Power Units
placed at a larger distance away, consult your Electrician.
• Use the proper wire size for your Power Unit.
–
For 220 VAC, 50 Hz, 1 Ph or 208-230 VAC, 60 HZ, 1 Ph, 2 HP, use a minimum 12 AWG
wire.
– For a 380 VAC, 50 Hz, 3 Ph, 2 HP, use a minimum 12 AWG wire.
– For a 110 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1 Ph, use a minimum 10 AWG wire.
5. Have an Electrician check all connections for loose wiring.
6. Fill the Hydraulic Fluid reservoir.
The Power Unit’s Hydraulic Fluid reservoir must be filled with Hydraulic Fluid or Automatic
Transmission Fluid
before
you begin operation. When you receive it, the reservoir is empty; the
Power Unit will not work correctly until it is filled with approved fluids.
Approved fluids are any general purpose ISO-32, ISO-46, or ISO-68 hydraulic oil or approved
automatic transmission fluids such as Dexron III, Dexron VI, Mercon V, Mercon LV, or any synthetic
multi-vehicle automatic transmission fluid.
⚠
WARNING Do not run your Power Unit without Hydraulic Fluid; you will damage it. Keep the
Power Unit dry; damage to the Power Unit caused by water, detergents, acid, and
other liquids is not covered by the warranty.
