After you have extended the chrome rod, attach the cable to the top caps in the 

legs.  Make sure each cable is on the pulleys.  Place both nuts on top of the top 

cap and tighten them together. 

 

Safety Latch Linkage Installation: 

Locate and identify the components needed 

to install the safety latch linkage rods. Install the spacers from on the straight 

threaded end of the 

1/2” x 50” (1/2” x 70” for the XLT) bent rod 

and the 

threaded end of the 

1/2” x 126” straight safety latch linkage rod. 

 

Install the 

1/2” x 50” (70” XLT) bent safety latch linkage rod 

into the main side 

track adjacent to back end of the cylinder (opposite the cylinder rod). Safety 

latch linkage rod should pass through guide tubes on underside of track. 

 

Install the 

1/2” x 126” straight safety latch linkage rod 

into the main side track 

from the opposite end. The rod should pass through two guides on the 

underside of the main side track.

 

 

 

Attach the 

71” hose 

to the fitting on the power unit.  Attach the other end of the 

71” hose 

to outside fitting in main side track.  Attach hose from cylinder to track 

fitting. 

 

Place a funnel into vent cap hole and fill the tank with one of the following fluids: 

AW-32 

or 

ISO-32 

hydraulic oil. 

Mobil DTE 24, or Texaco HD32. DO NOT USE 

DEXRON

® 

IN THIS LIFT! 

This tank will hold approximately 12 quarts. 

 

Relocating or changing components may cause problems. Each component in 

the system must be compatible; an undersized or restricted line will cause a 

drop in pressure. All valve, pump, and hose connections should be sealed 

and/or capped until just before use. All parts should be supplied from 

manufacture. Air hoses can be used to clean fittings and other components. 

However, the air supply must be filtered and dry to prevent contamination. 

Most 

important - cleanliness 

- contamination is the most frequent cause of 

malfunction or failure of hydraulic equipment. 

 

Check Pulley Cover and Lock Collars: 

Before proceeding, double check to 

make sure the locking shaft collars for the crossrail cable pulleys are tight and 

secure. Check the pulley cover (2-RIGHT and 2 LEFT) over the shaft located on 

the pulley side of each crossrail. CHECK the pulley and cover are firm against 

the locking shaft collar already in place. Check the additional lock collar on the 

outside of the shaft is tight and secure. To prevent personal injury or death, 

crossrail lock collars must be tight. If they are ever removed - always make sure 

the locking shaft collars are tight and secure.
