1. Remove all load from the platform. Never block the lift when loaded.
2. Raise the platform sufficiently for the base rollers to rollback past the flip-over
maintenance locks, located on the base frame of the lift.
3. Engage both maintenance locks by flipping them into the base frame (see Figure 8).
4. Lower the platform until the base rollers come into contact with and rest against the
maintenance locks. Always hold the “DOWN” switch a few seconds more until all
pressure is gone and the platform is supported entirely and safely by the
maintenance locks.
5. Always shut off the main electrical switch, when blocked, to prevent someone from
turning it on.
DANGER
!
To avoid personal injury, NEVER go under the platform until the load is
removed and the lift is securely blocked in the open position.
6. To remove the maintenance locks, raise the platform by activating the “UP” valve to
provide sufficient clearance for the removal of the maintenance locks.
DANGER
!
Maintenance locks that are bent, damaged, or non-functional must be
replaced immediately to avoid personal injury. Contact the Autoquip
Service Department for replacement parts and installation instructions.
