IMpORTANT! before first use, check for proper hydraulic fluid level in the Ram. Then thoroughly test the
Lift for proper operation prior to its actual use. If the Lift appears
not
to be working properly, it may be
necessary to
bleed
its hydraulic system of excess air.
1. Pull out the rubber Fluid Fill Plug from
the side of the Ram housing.

2. Have an assistant hold the Release Pedal down.
3. Use stable weights, such as sand bags (not
included) to weigh down the Wheel Brackets evenly.
4. Pump the Foot Pedal quickly several times.
5. Check the Fluid Fill Hole (where the Fluid Fill Plug
was removed from) and, if necessary, top off the
Fluid Fill Hole with hydraulic fluid (not included).
6. Replace the Fluid Fill Plug.
7. Test the Lift several times for proper operation
before attempting to lift a load.
If the Lift still
does
not
appear to be working properly after
bleeding, do not use the Lift until it has been
repaired by a qualified service technician.
Lifting
WARNING! Set Lift and vehicle on a flat, level, hard, ground surface
safely away from oncoming traffic. Turn off vehicle’s engine.
1. Determine the wheel width of the mower/ATV
and adjust the Wheel Bracket supports to
match that width. Lock them in place using the
Width Pins.
WARNING! Adjust them so that they
are equally distant from the center of the Lift,
or else the Lift will be unstable and might tip.
2. Examine the bottom of each mower/ATV wheel that
is touching the floor. Adjust the depth of both Wheel
Brackets to be slightly larger than that distance.
3. Press the Release Pedal to lower the Lift.
Once the Lift is fully lowered,
release the Release Pedal.
4. Use the mower/ATV’s steering
to straighten its wheels.
5. Press the fronts of the Wheel Brackets straight
against the fronts of the mower/ATV’s wheels.
Push the Wheel Brackets under the wheels until
both wheels rest in the center of the Wheel Bracket.
6. Secure the load to the D-Ring on the Lift Arm
using appropriate tie-down straps (not included).
7. Lower the two Safety Lock Levers to their locked
position to enable the locking mechanism.
Refer to Components on page 7.
8. Place the vehicle’s transmission in NEUTRAL.
Hold the Handle and pump the Foot Pedal.
Use smooth, full strokes for best results.
9. Raise the vehicle to the desired height. As the load
is lifted the locking mechanism will automatically
engage to lock the Lift Arm in one of three positions.
10. After the vehicle is lifted, use wheel
chocks (sold separately) to block the rear
wheels that are
not
being lifted.
11. Make sure the Lift Arm is locked in one
of the three available positions before
working on the mower/ATV.
Lowering
1. Remove all tools, parts, etc. from under the vehicle.
Remove the wheel chocks from the rear wheels.
2. Pump the Foot Pedal slightly to remove
weight from the locking mechanism.
3. Raise the two Safety Lock Levers to the horizontal,
unlocked position to disengage the locking
mechanism. Refer to Components on page 7.
4. Keep clear while pressing the Release Pedal
to lower the mower/ATV. Once the Lift is
completely lowered, remove the tie-down straps
and roll Lift out from under the mower/ATV.
5. When not in use, store Lift in a safe, dry
location out of reach of children.
