Installation
How to install to your vehicle:
To avoid serious injury or death:
Always use a Class 2 or Class 3 hitch system. The lift has been
designed for attachment to a Class 2 or Class 3 vehicle hitch
system. Do not use with any other class of vehicle hitch
system. Before installing the lift make sure the hitch has been
properly installed, has no rust, corrosion, wear or damage and
the front and rear vehicle suspension is in proper working
order.
Do not alter or modify the lift in any way.
Do not attempt to raise the rear of your vehicle with the lift
or damage to your vehicle and lift may result.
The lift is heavy. Exercise caution when attempting to lift into
place. Ask for assistance. To prevent injury, do not attempt
lifting beyond your capacity
.
Follow these instructions to install the lift onto the vehicle:
If a license plate light is required the vehicle and hitch should be prewired for
12 volts so it can be plugged into the lift license plate light plug. A standard
four way, flat style trailer hitch lighting plug is provided on the lift.
Position the lift into the hitch tube and align the mounting holes for the lift tube
and hitch. Attach the lift hardware and tighten. See Figure 1A for Class 2 or Class
3 installations. After the hitch is installed, make sure there is adequate ground
