Raise the lift approximately one foot using the “UP” button. Then lower the lift
back to fully collapse, holding the “DOWN” button for approximately 60 seconds.
Repeat this process five to seven times to bleed any air out of the hydraulic
system.
6. Raise and lower the lift to make positioning adjustments and align the platform in
the pit with a proper clearance of ¾” minimum around the edges from the
platform to the pit angle.
DANGER !
Do not work under lift without Maintenance Device! To avoid
personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the load
is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely blocked in
the open position and the appropriate OSHA lock-out/tag-out
procedure is followed. See "Lift Blocking Instructions" section.
7. The base frame of the lift has pre-drilled holes for lagging it securely to the floor.
Mark hoes, drill, and install with anchors. Lifts with oversize platforms have
minimum pull out requirements of 2,000 lbs. for each anchor.
8. Make the permanent electrical connections and operate the lift through a few
cycles.
