LAYOUT
STEP 3
(Site Layout)
1. Select an appropriate site for where to install your new
state-of-the-art BendPak lift using the chart on page 10.
2. Now determine which direction you would like the lift to
face. A vehicle will approach the lift from the Rear Ramp
End and drive forward to the Front Ramp End. (See Fig
3.1)
3. Once a location is determined, use a carpenters chalk
line to layout a grid for the Sliding Pivot Baseplate loca-
tions. Make sure to snap the chalk line long enough for
the entire length of the ramp. This is needed to provide a
reference line for the Fixed Pivot Baseplates, as the these
baseplates are narrower.
4. All measurements are made from Baseplate center
anchor holes.
6. Keep all dimensions square within 1/8” (3mm) or mal-
function of the lift can occur.
7. CHECK ALL DIMENSIONS TWICE and make sure
that the layout is perfectly square.
