ATTENTION

By following the instructions in this manual you can save 
yourself much time, frustration and money.  The installation of 
your lift will take 4-5 hours.  Do not rush.  It is better to spend 
a few extra minutes and do the job right.  If you will avoid the 
following common mistakes your lift will go together easily 
and serve you well for many years.

1.

Do not attempt to use the power unit to extend your 
cylinder.  This must be done manually.

2.

If you do not know how to wire your motor, get 
professional help.

3.

Make sure all cables are on pulleys before operating your 
lift.

4.

Always lower your lift onto the safety locks; this will 
protect your power unit.  Your power unit will not raise a 
car while the pump is loaded.

5.

Before using your lift, lubricate the inside of the four 
columns.  WD-40 or spray silicate works best.

6.

Do not over tighten the hydraulic fittings.

We have sold over 25,000 of these style lifts.  These six things 
are  the  most  common  mistakes  people  make.   If  you  will 
follow your manual and avoid these pitfalls, you will be proud 
of your lift.
