User Controls
A) Speed Control Brake Lever – used for slowing and stopping the momentum of the CooLift. This brake
does not act as a parking brake.
B) Foot Brake Lever - the foot brake is used as a parking brake for when the CooLift is in transit in the back
of a vehicle, or if the CooLift is left unattended.
C) Pump release valve – when valve is closed, the deck can be lifted. Open the valve to release the deck.
D) Containment Strap – should be used to secure loads during transport.
E) Operator Handles – foam cushioned, ergonomic handles for lift control.
F) Manual Pump Handle – handle and retention strap for when not in use.
G) Lift Assist Handle (optional) - handles pivot upward to give additional leverage when lifting back of CooLift
Deck Operation of the Magliner Manual CooLift
The CooLift deck is raised and lowered using the hand pump handle provided with the unit.
To raise the deck:
1. Rotate the valve handle toward the back of the CooLift (i.e. clockwise direction).
2. Carefully remove the retention strap from the pump handle.
3. Make sure the pump handle is securely inserted into the pump handle receiver located at the top of the
pump.
4. Firmly grasp the handle and swing downward until it reaches the limit of travel - this increases pressure
in the hydraulic line to apply lifting force to the deck. Return handle to upright position.
5. Repeat step 3 until the load is lifted to desired height.
6. Replace the retention strap on the pump handle in the upright position.
Note: The heavier the load, the more pumps it may take to raise the deck to the top position. With a 1,000
lbs. load, this could take approximately 18 pumps
of the handle to lift the deck to the top position.
To lower the deck:
1. Rotate the valve handle toward the front of the CooLift (i.e. counter-clockwise direction).
2. The rate of descent can be controlled by how much the valve handle is rotated toward the front of the
CooLift. The deck can be lowered part way and then held in place by rotating the handle toward the back
of the unit until descent stops.
3. The deck will lower into the lowest position.
Operating the Foot Brake
The foot brake prevents the rear casters from rotating and from swiveling.
To engage, press down on the foot pedal until it locks in the down (locked) position. To disengage, pull up on
the foot pedal until it is released and in the up (unlocked) position.
