Selecting a Location
When selecting the location for your Lift, consider:
•
Architectural plans
. Consult the architectural plans for your desired installation location. Make
sure there are no issues between what you want to do and what the plans show.
•
Available space
. Make sure there is enough space for the Lift: front, back, sides, and above.
•
Overhead Clearance
. Check for overhead obstructions such as building supports, heaters,
electrical lines, low ceilings, hanging lights, and so on. Use the maximum lifting height of your Lift
plus the height of the tallest Vehicle you plan on raising to determine how much height you will
need at the Lift location.
•
Power
. You need an appropriate power source for the Power Unit.
•
Outdoor installations
. Your Lift is approved for
indoor installation and use
only
.
•
Floor
. Only install the Lift on a flat, concrete floor; do not install on asphalt or any other surface.
The surface must be level; do not install if the surface has more than three degrees of slope.
⚠
WARNING
Installing your Lift on a surface with more than three degrees of slope could lead to
injury or even death; only install the Lift on a level floor. If your floor is not level,
consider making the floor level or using a different location.
•
Shimming
. If your concrete floor is not completely level, you can use Shims under the bases of
the Posts, as needed, to level the Lift. To estimate your Shim requirements, use a transit level and
targets to check for flatness. Use the provided Shims as necessary.
NOTICE
Do not shim a Post more than half an inch using the provided Shims and Anchor
Bolts. A maximum shim of 2 inches is possible by ordering optional Shim Plates.

•
Concrete specifications
. Do not install the Lift within 6 inches of cracked or defective
concrete. Make sure the concrete is at least 4.25 inches thick, 3,000 PSI, and cured for a
minimum of 28 days.
⚠
CAUTION
BendPak lifts are supplied with installation instructions and Concrete anchors that
meet the criteria set by the current version of the American National Standard
“Automotive Lifts – Safety Requirements for Construction, Testing, and Validation”,
ANSI/ALI ALCTV. You are responsible for any special regional structural and/or
seismic anchoring requirements specified by any other agencies and/or codes such
as the Uniform Building Code (UBC) and/or International Building Code (IBC).
Be sure to check your floor for the possibility of it being a
post-tension slab
. In this case, you
must contact the building architect
before
drilling. Using ground penetrating radar may help you
find the tensioned steel.
⚠
WARNING
Cutting through a tensioned Cable can result in injury or death. Do not drill into a
post-tension slab unless the building architect confirms you are not going to hit
tensioned steel or you have located it using ground penetrating radar.
If colored
sheath comes up during drilling, stop drilling immediately
.
