INSTRUCTION MANUAL English
Introduction
The Drywall Lift allows one person to lift a drywall panel that is up to 4ft x 16ft in size, without assis-
tance. The panel can be raised to a maximum height of 11ft for attachment to level ceilings-or (with the
lift's cradle tilted) to sloped ceilings or side walls. For higher ceilings, an Extension Accessory is avail-
able that increases maximum lift to 15ft.
The Lift's cradle lowers to 34 in. off the floor for easy panel loading, and can support up to 150lbs.
These instructions explain how to assemble the Lift, operate it, disassemble it after use for easy
transport and storage, and order replacement parts. We urge you to read the Important Precautions
below, and the Operation sections, before trying to use the Lift.
