FIRST USE AND ADJUSTMENTS
Use these diagrams to help place the lift
Note:
Lift
must
move into Over-Center position when fully raised.
First test lift on dry ground for oil leaks, remote control function and correct operation.
NOTE:
Follow this “first use section” during your first loading of a boat onto the boat lift. These are required adjustments to
make the lift work correctly.
1.
Place the boat over the lift to the following specifications:
a.
If your boat is an outboard, inboard/outboard, or V-drive, the transom should be 2 inches off of the end of the bunk
boards.
b.
If your boat is a mid-engine or shaft-drive, the transom should be 12 to 24 inches off of the end of the bunk boards.
2.
Disembark and raise the boat slowly. If more than two inches of settling occurs, stop, carefully lower the lift to remove the
boat and re-level the boat lift. Continue repeating this step until the boat can be raised into the full Over-Center
tm
position
without settling.
3. Remove the boat. Ve rify that the lift frame is level. Re-level the framework if necessary.
NOTE:
If you purchase a new boat, be sure it is within the weight capacity limits of the lift. Also remember that
these adjustments will have to be done again to accommodate the new boat.
NOTE:
The hydraulic fluid should be completely changed every two years to ensure successful continued use.
Your Basta Boatlift
tm
requires very little maintenance once installed.
Occasionally wipe the solar panel with a clean, damp cloth to preserve its charging performance.
Every 6 months, we recommend:
Inspect the hoses, cylinders and fittings for leaks and wear.
Check the wire terminals for snugness and corrosion.
Check the hydraulic fluid and battery electrolyte levels:
The battery electrolyte should be slightly above the indicator ring in each cell.
Carefully add DISTILLED water if necessary. Do not over-fill.
The hydraulic fluid level should be about one inch below the top of the reservoir with the lift DOWN.
DO NOT add fluid with the lift in the raised position!
Use only Basta approved fluid.
We recommend Chevron Clarity® AW ISO 32 or CITGO Aquamarine® 46 hydraulic oils.
