OPTION D
Determine motor mounting location on the ceiling
□
Choose a location in your garage where you would like to install your Hoist – an unobstructed operating space of at least 3 feet by 4
feet is required. The motor mounting plate (A) should be installed at least 3 feet away from walls or any other obstructions and close to
a power supply (preferably a ceiling outlet).
□
The motorized hoist is designed to be installed either perpendicular or parallel to the ceiling joists and can be installed on joists with
16 in. or 24 in. spacing.
□
In the chosen installation area determine the direction of the ceiling joists and the exact location of the ceiling joists by visually
checking or using a joist finder or a very fine drill bit.
□
Four installation options are illustrated below. Note how the motor mounting plate (A) and motor hoist (B) are positioned for your
installation – in particular the location of the 4 fixed threaded bolts on the motor mounting plate and the 4 ½ in. spacer channel bar
attachment tab on the motor hoist. Determine how the motor mounting plate should be rotated – where the fixed, threaded bolts
should be located – prior to fastening to the joists. Identify your installation option.
