Raise lift until the lift stops and lower until the Safeties

Lock is ONE INCH (1”) above the Top Lock Position. The
Cable Nuts MUST be tightened until there is at least one
inch of threads protruding through the nut.

Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
All Cable Nuts MUST be tightened on each end until there
is at least one inch of threads protruding through the nut.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

as outlined above a week after first use, then every three to
six months thereafter depending on usage and/or to com-
pensate for stretch.
