Place a flat washer and hex nut over threaded end of anchor, leaving approximately 1/4
inch of thread exposed above the nut (fig.3). Carefully tap anchor into the concrete until
nut and flat washer are against base plate. Be sure to only tap the top of the anchor and
not the nut. This could cause damage to the threads of the anchor.

Tighten the nut (fig. 4) to 85 ft-lbs of torque (typically this should only be two to three
full turns)�
DO NOT USE AN IMPACT WRENCH TO TIGHTEN ANCHORS!
6-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1)
After unloading the lift, place it near the intended installation location.
2)
Remove the shipping bands and packing materials from the unit.
3)
Remove the packing brackets and bolts holding the two columns together (do not
discard bolts, they are used in the assembly of the lift)
4)
Once the lift location is decided, chalk the center line in the bay and ensure that the
proper lift placement is observed from walls and obstacles. Also check the ceiling
height for clearance in this location. NOTE: the power unit column can be located on
either side�
5)
Position the columns facing each other
134-5/8” to outside base plates. NOTE: The
power unit column is referred to as the main side column and the non power unit
column is referred to as the offside column�
6)
Using a 3/4” concrete drill bit, drill the anchor holes in the main side column, installing
anchors as you go (see Fig. 1-4, page 8). Use a block of wood or rubber mallet to drive
anchor bolts in�
7)
Using a level, check column for side-to-side plumb and front-to-back plumb. Use 3/4”
washers or shim stock, placing shims as close as possible to the hole locations. This
will prevent bending the column bottom plates. Tighten 3/4” anchor bolts to 85-lbs.
NOTE:
DO NOT USE IMPACT WRENCH�
8)
Test fit the Floorplate in between both columns to confirm proper spacing between the
columns. Using a tape measure, measure diagonally from the face of one column to
the opposite face of the other, to ensure that the columns are square. After confirming
the dimensions, drill and anchor offside column as described in steps 7 (also see Fig.
1-4, page 8).
PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUCTION BEFORE STARTING TO OPERATE THE LIFT.
