STEP 10
(Installing Hydraulic Hoses)
1. Install the Hydrualic Tee Fitting into the Power Side
Column. The through hole is located approximately 90
inches from the floor on the back wall of the Power Side
Column.
2. Connect the
Power Side
Hydraulic Hose to the Tee
Fitting. Make sure to route the hose through the Retainer
Clips inside the posts.
3. Route the Off Side Hydrualic Hose (Crossover
Hose) up through the Column and across the Overhead
Assembly, down the Column and connect it to the Tee
Fitting. (See Fig 10.1)
STEP 11
(Routing the Equalizer Cables)
See drawing on page 13 for reference.
1. Raise and lock each Carriage approximately 28”
above the ground. (See Fig. 11.1)
2. With the Carriages locked at 28” off the floor, route the
Equalizer Cables up to the Top Trough.
3. Route the cables through the sheave brackets and
reinstall the Cable Sheaves. (See Fig. 11.2)
Note
: The Cable Sheaves should have been removed in
Step 6.
4. Insert the threaded end of the Cable through the
hole on top of the carriage. Place M22 Washer and M22
Nylock Nut on threaded cable end. Tighten cable nuts
until taut, checking that both cables have equal tension.

WHEN THE CABLE ADJUSTING NUTS BOTTOM OUT
ON THE THREADED END OF THE CABLE
CONNECTOR AND THERE IS STILL SLACK IN THE
CABLES, THE CABLES HAVE STRETCHED BEYOND
THE SAFE USEFUL LENGTH AND NEED TO BE
REPLACED WITH FACTORY APPROVED CABLE
ASSEMBLIES. DO NOT PLACE WASHERS, SPACERS
OR OTHER DEVICES TO “SHORTEN” THE
EFFECTIVE CABLE LENGTH AS DAMAGE TO THE
LIFT OR INJURY TO PERSONS MAY OCCUR.
Fig 11.1
MAKE SURE THAT THE SAFETY LOCKS ON EACH
POST ARE FULLY ENGAGED BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO ROUTE EQUALIZER CABLES AND/OR HOSES.
CARRIAGES MUST BE EQUAL HEIGHT FROM THE
FLOOR BEFORE PROCEEDING.
