INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Standard area required for four post lift is a minimum of (44030) 15’-6” x 30’-0”’ or
(44030E) 15’-6” x 35’-0” or (44030X) 15’-6” x 40’-0” area. If 3 feet track
extensions are purchased then increase the length in increments of the 3’-0”
depending on the number of extensions purchased. If only one set is purchased,
the preference of the manufacture is to install them at the ramp end of the lift.
2. Using the chalk line layout a rectangle (44030) 12’-5 1/2” x 21’-5 1/4” or (44030E)
12’-5 1/2” x 26’-5 1/4” or (44030X) 15’-6” x 40’-0” at least 3’-2” from the ramp
location and 1’-6 1/4” from either side of the lift (
see Layout & Installation
Specification sheet
). This should give the lift 4” clearance in front of the ramps
and 1’-6 1/2” from the side of the any leg.
3. Unpacking lift, inspect lift for any damages due to transportation and check
shipping list for missing parts.
4. Determine the location for the lift. Keep in mind overhead clearances. Sixteen
feet is the minimum recommended ceiling height. A higher ceiling may be
required depending the height of the vehicles.
5. Determine which side of the lift the Top Rail and power unit is to be installed. This
is called the MAIN SIDE. The other side is referred to as the OFFSIDE. Ease of
entry and exit from vehicles, type of work being done, and required placement of
the power unit on the Top Rail side are all considerations.
6. After determining the Main side (the side the Top Rail is to be placed on), stand
the two Main side Legs upright inside the chalk lines, with each leg facing inside.
One of the two legs comes with factory installed power unit mounts. This leg is
to be placed as follows: If Top Rail/Main side is to be on the right as you
approach, this post must be at the right front corner. (See Installation Specs &
Layout Drawing.) If Top Rail/Main side is to be on the left as you approach, this
post must be the left rear corner. (Optional Main side Leg Location) This manual
will show the Top Rail/Main side being on the right side.
7. With both Main side Legs on the chalk lines, Step #1 (
see Fig. 5A
) is to drill holes
using a ¾” diameter carbide drill bit. Keep in mind the anchoring tips mentioned
previously in the manual. After drilling all 8 hole on the Main side Legs, anchor
them down with ¾-10
UNC
5 ½ anchor bolts (8 pcs-91578A501). Make sure legs
are level and plumb. Make sure all bolts are properly set and meet 75 ft. lbs of
torque. DO NOT USE AN IMPACT.
8. Locate Top Rail assembly as shown in Fig. #1. Step #2 is to mount Top Rail
assembly on top of Main side Legs (
see Fig. 5A & 5B
). Secure Top Rail to Main
side Legs using ½-13
UNC
x 2
HHCS
(8 pcs–91247A720), 1/2 flat washers top
and bottom (16 pcs–90126A033), ½ lock washers (8 pcs-91102A033) & ½-
13
UNC
hex nut (8 pcs–90473A223).
9. Next locate a Cross Rail assembly. Use a fish tape to pull the Cross Rail chain
through the Cross Rail tube. The chain runs under the roller on the offside and
over the roller on the Main side. Repeat with the other Cross Rail. Feed the fish
tape through the Cross Rail starting from the Main side by going over the Main
side roller and through the Cross Rail tube, then under the Offside roller and
straight up. (
See Fig. 3
)
10. Step #3 is to set Cross Rails on two 4 x 4 blocks at each end in front of Main
side Legs, with the machined Cross Rail connector towards the Main side Leg as
shown in Fig. #3 & #5A.
