1.
Determine where you will install the LED Light Strips on your runways and where the AC Transformer Power
Supply will be located (See Figure 3 & Detail A).
IMPORTANT
:
Make sure there will be no interference with
any accessory components used on the lift
. Clean the surface area of the inside horizontal rail of the lift or wall
of the lube pit using a grease cutting solvent. Allow the surface to dry completely. Apply the primer stick
mixture in a thin straight line along the complete length of the lift runway or lube pit wall where the LED Light
Strip will be installed. This will remove any residual oil that may still be on the surface. This is critical for the
adhesion of the double stick tape to the metal or concrete wall (for lube pit application). Repeat on the
opposite runway or wall.
2.
Prior to installing the LED Light Strips be certain that the plug end of the Light Strips will be positioned so the
power cords from the AC Transformer power supply will be able to reach them. It is recommended to use a
guide when applying the LED Light Strips to keep them straight on the runways. Remove about a foot of the
protective cover from the double stick tape from the plug end of one length of light strip. AGAIN
– be sure you
are attaching the LED Light Strip so the light shines
up
.
From the plug end of the LED Light Strip and working back to the terminated end, peel about a foot of the
protective cover off at a time and attach the LED Light Strip to the thin straight line that was cleaned in step 4
until the entire LED Light Strip is installed. Press firmly along the entire length of the LED Light Strips to assure
proper adhesion. Repeat on the opposite runway or wall.
3.
The LiftLyte
™ is designed to accept power from the left or from the right. Position the AC Transformer Power
Supply (2) where electrical power will be easily available. Attach the plug ends of each Light Strip to the plug
ends of the AC Power Cord and Transformer. To prevent damage to the plug contacts be sure to match up the
alignment tabs on the plugs when attaching the power cords to the LED Light Strips. Use the supplied zip ties
and mounts to secure the wiring as required. Clean the areas where the tie down points will be located with a
grease cutting solvent and allow it to dry. Additionally clean those spots with one of the provided primer sticks.
DO NOT APPLY ELECTICAL POWER TO THE TRANSFORMER AT THIS TIME.
4.
Clean the area you have chosen to mount the power supply with a grease cutting solvent and allow it to dry.
Additionally clean that area with the primer sticks if provided. Remove the protective surface from the Velcro
strip on the backside of the AC Transformer power supply. Stick the AC Transformer Power Supply to the
cleaned area and press firmly. DO NOT place the transformer in an area where it can be damaged by raising or
lowering the lift or by automobile tires or other items.
IMPORTANT
: Carefully raise and lower the lift completely
several times to make certain there are no areas where power cords could get snagged on or crushed by any
parts of the lift.
5.
Run an extension cord to the AC Transformer Power Supply. Apply electrical power at this time. Push the on/off
button on the transformer. The LiftLyte
™ should activate within 2 seconds. Note that there is a very slight delay
between activation and illumination of the LED Light Strips.
