ASSEMBLY – MOUNTING THE ACTUATOR
IMPORTANT!:
The Actuator has 18” or 24” of travel. Position the Lift Assembly as high as possible, typically the distance from the
ground to the upper bolt is as follows: 18” Actuator: 24 to 26 inches or 24” Actuator: 30 to 32 inches.
1.)
Align the holes on the Actuator with the holes on the Receiver Attachment (or optional Swing-Away).
2.)
Insert the 1/2 x 3.5 bolt and washer into the upper holes. Attach the washer and nut but do not tighten at this
point.
3.)
Adjust the tilt of the Actuator by turning the adjustment bolt until you have the desired angle (Note: It is
recommended the top of the Actuator tilts slightly towards the vehicle). Tighten the nut on the adjusting bolt to
secure the setting of the actuator.
4.)
Insert the second 1/2 x 4 hex bolt with the washers and nut into the lower, slotted holes.
5.)
Using a 3/4 wrench and socket wrench, firmly tighten the nuts on the 1/2 x 4 hex bolts.
