Raising a Vehicle
This section describes how to position a Vehicle on the Lift and raise it.
Important
: Do not remove a Vehicle’s tires and then lower the Vehicle all the way to the ground.
The Lift requires some space between the ground and the underside of your Vehicle to
build up enough force to raise the Vehicle.
⚠
WARNING:
Never raise a Vehicle whose weight exceeds the rated capacity of the Lift. Do not
leave the Controls until the Lift is engaged on Safety Locks or fully lowered. Only
trained personnel should raise and lower the Lift. Only the Operator should be
within 30 feet of the Lift when it is in use.
To raise a Vehicle
:
1.
If you find any issues, resolve them
before
attempting to raise a Vehicle.
2.
Make sure both Platforms are fully lowered.
3.
Drive the Vehicle onto the Platforms—the wheels should be centered on the Extended Platform.
⚠
CAUTION
Make sure to situate the Vehicle so that neither the front nor the rear wheels are
over the Platforms. If you raise the Platforms with the wheels over the Platforms,
you could damage the wheels.
4.
Put the Vehicle in park, put on the parking brake, and turn off the Vehicle.
If the Vehicle is a manual transmission, put it into first gear before turning it off.
You do not want the Vehicle moving while it is raised.
5.
Walk around the Vehicle to make sure there are no obstructions or any other issues that will
interfere with the raising or lowering of the Platforms.
6.
Place the Lift Blocks under the factory-recommended Lifting Points of the Vehicle.
⚠
WARNING
Do not ‘eyeball’ the best location for the Lift Blocks.
You must use the
manufacturer-recommended Lifting Points
. If you do not know the factory-
recommended Lifting Points for the Vehicle, use
Vehicle Lifting Points for Frame-
Engaging Lift
and SAE Standard J2184,
Vehicle Lift Points for Service Garage
Lifting
, as resources to assist you in the proper positioning of a Vehicle for raising. If
the Vehicle has an additional or uniquely positioned payload, have a qualified
person calculate the Vehicle’s center of gravity or have the Vehicle’s center of
gravity determined at a Vehicle scale.
7.
At the Console, press and hold the
Raise
button; the Platforms start rising.
8.
Just
before
the Lift Blocks make contact with the Lifting Points on the Vehicle, release
Raise
.
The Platforms stop.
Check the locations where the Lift Blocks will hit the factory-recommended Lifting Points on the
Vehicle. If necessary, adjust the Lift Blocks so they are properly positioned under the Lifting Points
(you may need to lower the Vehicle some to adjust the Lift Blocks).
9.
After confirming the Lift Blocks are properly positioned, press
Raise
.
The Platforms start going up again and the Lift Blocks contact the Vehicle’s Lifting Points.
