7.11 DECK LEVELING PROCEDURE
7.11.1 Leveling Lift to Floor
Note: Read the Operation Label on the powerpack for instructions.
1. Now that all the hydraulic and pneumatic connections are completed, push the up
button on the powerpack to raise the lift off the jack stands.
2. Remove the jack stands and lower the lift completely to the floor.
3. Determine the highest corner of the lift and adjust remaining towers to level the lift,
front-to-back and side-to-side (See positions 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Figure 26 ). Use shims
under tower base plate, as needed. Individual towers should also be leveled in both
front-back and side-side directions.
7.11.2 Deck Leveling Procedure
1. Raise the lift so that it is fully supported by the cables and is not resting on the safety
ladders.
2. Using a self leveling laser (or 4’ level), check the level of the decks front to rear and
side to side as shown in Figure 26 .
3. Lower the lift onto the nearest safety.
Figure 26. Deck leveling (Lift may not be as shown).
4. Adjust the cable lengths by tightening or loosening the two (2) 7/8”-14UNF hex nuts
attached to each cable at the tower top plate to raise or lower each corner.
