11.2 Quick assembly instructions
The lift components are already preasse-
mbled ex works. When assembling these
must simply be joined together, electric,
pneumatic, and hydraulic lines must be
properly connected.
1. Determine the installation site of the post lift.
Check the foundation. If necessary, reinforce the
foundations at the point where the lift columns will
be positioned.
2. Make preparations for installation. Prepare elec-
trical and pneumatic connections.
Check the foundation for unevenness and level it
out. Use spacers and shims.
3. Set down both runways and prepare them for
assembly.
4. Set down both cross beams and prepare them for
assembly. Disassemble the cable sheaves.
5. Set up the cables. To do so, pull out the cables
from the cross beams and tension them.
6. Fasten the runways to the cross beams.
7. Insert the latch bars into the latch bar brackets.
8. Stand the lift columns upright, anchor and secure
to the floor.
9. Secure the latch bars and cables.
10.Attach flexible hoses.
11. Assemble the hydraulics module. Fill the
hydraulics tank.
12.Connect the electrics.
13.Power up the post lift and connect the pneumat-
ic lines (when it stops, it will automatically lock in
the latch bars).
14. Carry out initial commissioning.
Make minor adjustments to the post lift.
15. Fit the automatic wheel chocks, drive-on ramps
and other additional components.
