Follow these steps to install the Power Tote P-100 Lift:
1. Remove the pre-assembled mounting hardware from the
Class 1 hitch bracket or Class 2 or Class 3 hitch tube and
use it to attach the hitch bracket/hitch tube to the lift frame.
See figure 1.
2. If your vehicle is equipped with a Class 1 hitch receiver,
slide the hitch bracket over the hitch receiver, aligning the
mounting holes. Secure the hitch bracket to the hitch re-
ceiver with the supplied hardware. See figure 2.
3. If your vehicle is equipped with a Class 2 or Class 3 hitch
receiver, slide the hitch tube into the vehicle hitch receiver,
aligning the mounting hole closest to the lift with the mount-
ing hole in the hitch receiver. See figure 3.
WARNING! Lifting weight beyond your
physical capability can result in personal
injury. Ask for assistance if necessary
when attaching the lift frame to the hitch
receiver.
WARNING! Avoid pinch points! Do not hold
the lift frame by the pivot points when
mounting the lift frame to the hitch
receiver.
4. Secure the Class 2 or Class 3 hitch tube with the supplied
bolt and nut, inserting the bolt from the passenger’s side
through to the driver’s side of the hitch. See figure 3.
WARNING! Threading the bolt from the
wrong side or allowing the bolt to turn
while tightening the nut will dislodge the
threaded insert in the hitch tube.
WARNING! Do not attach a Class 2 hitch
tube to a Class 3 hitch receiver. Personal
injury or product damage may result.
