FLOOR INSTALLATION

DANGER

!

Do not work under the lift without the 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. See
“Lift Blocking Instructions” section.

1. Make sure installation area is clean before starting.

2. If the permanent electrical work is not complete, some means of temporary lines with

an on-off device for the power supply should be set up for testing purposes.

3. Place the lift in the installation area.

CAUTION!

When moving the lift, do not attempt to pick it up by the platform; it is
hinged and could be damaged. Pick up the lift from under the base frame
ONLY using lifting eyes or a strap sling.

4. Remove the shipping straps (the lift is shipped in a slightly raised position for

checking rotation).

5. Check wiring connections to the motor for proper rotation of the spiral mechanism.

6. Make temporary electrical connections. Raise the lift just high enough to engage the

safety locks. Once the “UP” limit switch is functional, raise the lift to the top of its
travel. Make positioning adjustments and check for the proper height. If needed,
shim to the desired height. DO NOT “Spot” shim. Shim the full length of the base
frame. This will prevent the frame from sagging under an exceptionally heavy load.
