Section 4: Installation

Your powered mobility lift is shipped in the box as factory pre-assembled. Once the vehicle wiring 

harness is connected, the lift can be installed to the vehicle hitch with help of the battery.

Measure from the bottom of the vehicle hitch to the ground to determine the orientation of the hitch 

adapter based on the vehicle’s hitch ground clearance. 

Measure from bottom of 

hitch receiver to ground

15" - 20"

10" - 15"

Non-Powered Method

Bolt the hitch adapter to the powered mobility lift with (2) bolts, 

(4) washers, and (2) nuts using the measured orientation.

Move the folded lift to the rear of the vehicle with the motor box 

folded down and away from the vehicle. It’s highly recommend-

ed to have at least two people lift the unit upward and place it 

into the vehicle hitch receiver. While holding the mobility lift in 

place, secure it to the hitch receiver with a hitch pin or pinch 

bolt. 

Powered Method

Install the hitch adapter into the vehicle hitch receiver using the 

orientation obtained from measuring, secure with hitch pin or 

pinch bolt.

Place the mobility lift at the rear of the vehicle with the motor 

box folded down and away from the vehicle. 

Plug the wiring harness previously installed in the vehicle, into 

the mobility lift. Turn the key and use the toggle DOWN switch 

to raise the motor box toward the hitch adapter. Continue to 

power the lift until the mounting holes line up with the hitch 

adapter.

Bolt the mobility lift to the hitch adapter with (2) bolts, (4) wash-

ers, and (2) nuts.

*Hex bolts MUST be at least one hole 

away from each other

Routing the Power Cord

Route the lift power cord down the lift, away from moving parts. The cord should follow along the mo-

tor box post and be secured with zip ties to allow the lift to operate without disconnecting or pinching 

the power cord.
