Set-Up Instructions
Follow these instructions to ensure a satisfactory set-up
and operation of the lift.
• After set-up and inspection of the lift, please return this
booklet to the literature package and give to lift owner/
operator. Literature package should be kept attached to
controls for easy access.
1. Unloading: Rotary’s Mobile Lift System units are shipped
in the vertical position.
2. After unloading, remove and discard protective
wrapping.
NOTE: Unit is shipped without power unit fluid.
Installation of fluid MUST be completed prior to lift
operation.
Failure to do so will result in air entering
the system. The unit will then have to be bled.
3. To move the column, remove protective banding and
wheel clamps from wheel jack. The forklift brackets can be
removed from the side of the column if desired.
4. Open power unit cover by removing the 3 M8 BHCS
(Button Head Cap Screw). Fill power unit tank with ISOVG32
hydraulic oil. Tank capacity is approximately 10 - 12 quarts
(11.5 liters) depending on model. Fill until fluid is full mark on
side of the tank. Short filling may cause vapor lock to occur.
5. If model ordered which includes batteries, if column
includes lockable disconnect, remove wire tie securing lift
in off position, if column does not have lockable disconnect
one wire will need to be connected to wire up column. For
columns not supplied with batteries, install two batteries in
location shown, Fig. 1. Deep cycle marine batteries should
be used, unless shop plans to keep column plugged in while
in operation, in those shops AGM (Advanced Glass Mat)
Batteries are recommended.

• 12V DC Sealed Deep Cycle Battery (*AGM if will be stay
plugged in).
