TROUBLESHOOTING
The following chart is intended to assist with troubleshooting your vertical lift. While not all inclusive, the chart outlines
the most common causes of a problem and the recommended course of action.
SYMPTOM
CAUSE AND CORRECTIVE ACTION
Winch resists platform raising.
Winch has been reeved incorrectly—winch must turn clockwise
to raise platform. See Section 3.7.
Sheaves binding—inspect/lubricate/replace.
Winch cable is rubbing against the winch frame—repeat winch
reeving if necessary following Section 3.7.
Winch fails to hold the platform in a given position
as described in the test procedure of Section 4.2
Contact your authorized dealer—tampering with the winch
mechanism can cause equipment damage that may invalidate your
warranty.
Winch is operating properly, but platform raising is
either difficult or impossible.
Platform is binding because frame is either not square, or not set
level in the water—refer to Sections 3.3 and 3.9.
One or more wires are broken—refer to Section 5. 2
Sheaves binding—inspect/lubricate/replace.
One or more cables are excessively worn—replace as required
and follow monthly wire rope inspection procedure described in
Section 5.2.
Load exceeds rated capacity— Reduce load weight as needed.
User or dealer installed locking devices are in place—remove
these.
Auxiliary equipment such as boating hardware is being
improperly hung on lift—remove this equipment permanently.
Boat is not lifting level—stern is lifting higher or
lower than the bow.
Frame is not level in the water—readjust height of extension legs.
Frame is level in the water but spreader tube cables are not tight
enough—
1.
Tighten down the cable stud nut to add tension to the
B-C spreader tube cable.
2. Tighten down the cable stud nut to add tension to the A-D
spreader tube cable. Check that the B-C and A-D spreader
tube cables are equal in tension and that the platform is
level.
Boat shifts position when operating the lift.
Boat is not properly secured on the lift—failure to properly secure
boat can cause equipment damage and/or serious personal injury.
