AYOUT

 

 

Note:  

 This lift can be installed at three different heights 

and three different widths. The Cable adjustment 
for the Height variation will be accommodated by 
the  Lower  Sheave  Bracket.  The  Cable 
adjustment  for  the  Width  variation  will  be 
accommodated  by  the  take-up  tube  in  later 
steps. 

 

 The height and width must be established before 

beginning,  as  this  will  determine  the  lower 
sheave  position  and  cable  take  up  tubes  to  be 
used.

 

1)  Once  the  lift  location  has  been  established, 

ensure  that  the  vertical  clearance  and  flooring 
requirements have been met per page 3. 

2)  See 

Fig 1

 for the lift layout. Determine which side 

of  the  bay  that  the  power  unit  will  be  on  and 
identify the column assembly with the power unit 
bracket. Layout the service bay according to the 
architect’s plans or owner’s instructions 

(see Fig. 

1b

). 

Failure  to  install  in  this  orientation  can 

result  in  personal  and  property  damage.   

Be 

certain that the proper conditions exist, see pg. 3.

REPARATION

 

3)  With column assemblies lying flat, remove cable 

and hose rolls from inside the column. 

4)  Manually push carriages up enough to unhook the 

cylinder hose from the base plate tabs. Proceed 
with pushing the cylinder and carriage up enough 
to  access  all  three  sheave  locations  on  the 
sheave bracket, see 

Fig 2
