13. Identify parts for hydraulic system installation (
reference diagram #7).
Tightly fasten
hydraulic lines to "T" fitting. Locate "T" assembly in overhead crossmember and route
the appropriate lines to cylinders and powerpack. Tightly fasten all hydraulic lines and
secure these lines to both columns and overhead crossmember using hardware provided
(7 positions - reference diagram #7)
. Insure that nothing will rub or wear the hydraulic lines.
14. Attach microswitch to overhead safety bar bracket on powerpack side of overhead
crossmember Install carriage upper limit microswitch on power side column extension
(use lower 4 holes for 138½ ” height and upper 4 holes for 148½ ” and 172” height – see
diagram #8).
NOTE: the following three procedures should be performed by a
certified electrician.
Wire overhead safety bar micro-switch and upper limit microswitch
to
the powerpack.
Wire powerpack to shop electrical system.
15. Fill powerpack reservoir with ISO 32 hydraulic oil.
16.
Operate the lift with no vehicle and no other weight.
Raise lifting carriages
approximately 30 inches. Confirm that safety locks on both sides engage properly while
lift is being raised. Verify that both lifting cylinders are properly seated in the baseplate
locator hole. Continue raising lift to full height confirming safety locks are engaging.
Adjust safety release cable to insure safety locks can be completely disengaged while
lowering lift (
reference diagram #5)
. Insure that no people or obstacles are near the lift
when adjusting the safety release cable. Lower lift completely. Raise and lower the lift at
least three times or until all air in the hydraulic system is removed.
17. After confirming that all air has been bled from the hydraulic system,
adjust equalizing cable tension as follows:
(also reference diagram #4)
(
Step 1)
Hold top of threaded stud with a wrench to prevent
it from rotating.
(
Step 2)
Tighten nut "B" until all loose slack is removed
from the cable. Do not over tighten.
(
Step 3
) Firmly tighten
nut "A" to lock cable in place. Repeat
this process for the other cable insuring both cables
have the same degree of tightness.
18. Raise lifting carriages approximately 12 inches off the floor.
Choose one arm and align arm restraint gear with locking
plunger insuring both components mesh smoothly and
totally
(reference diagram #6)
. Completely tighten all arm
restraint gear locking bolts to maintain this position. Lower
carriage to the floor to insure arm restraint disengages in
the down position. Raise the lift 12 inches off the floor to
insure arm restraint engages smoothly and totally. Repeat
this process with the remaining 3 arms. Raise and lower
the lift once more to confirm all arm restraints totally engage
and disengage smoothly.
19. Install safety lock cover on each column (
reference diagram #9).
20. To avoid damage, safety instruction and information decals are not applied at the factory
but shipped with the lift. The ALI - WL101 Series Label Kit must be applied to lift columns
before the lift is used (
reference diagram #10).
Insure that all lift operators are
trained in all points covered by this label kit.
Insure this manual along with all operation, inspection and maintenance
instructions are delivered to the owner/user/employer
