INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
J. GATE & ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION
1. Install the gate and enclosures following the layout on the GA drawing provided with
the enclosure package and referring to the Gate & Enclosure Installation Manual
that has been sent separately for this particular application.
2. All gates or doors accessing the lift must have electrical contacts and mechanical
locks to prevent the lift from operating if a gate is left open. The gate should lock
until the carriage is at the nearest landing. There are many variables that can affect
your installation: the type of gate; the type of door; conditions unique to a specific
site. One (1) to four (4) electrical sensing or signaling devices are supplied with
each gate that incorporates the standard interlock design.
K. SHAFTWAY BARRIER BAR KIT (for shaftway applications)
Figure 24 illustrates the contents and installation details for the shaftway barrier bar
system supplied for units in shaftway applications. The barrier bar system is
designed to leave (1) mid and (1) top rail across the door opening at the upper level
when the carriage is called to the lower level.
L. BACK-STOP KIT (when ordered)
Figure 25 illustrates the contents and installation details for the back-stop kit.
Installer must ensure that the finished distance between the edge of carriage and
the inside of the back-stop panels does not exceed 2 inches.
M. INSTALLATION WRAP-UP
1. After the unit is completely wired, make all necessary adjustments to the
interlocks, gate status switches, upper & lower lift status limit switches, and to the
top stop bolts to ensure proper operation of the lift and its safeties as required by
the schematic.
2. Ensure that all WARNING SIGNS AND DECALS provided with the unit which may
have been shipped loose for field installation (gate panel, etc.) are in place. Refer
again to Figure 1.
3. Clean up the area, paint and touch as needed.
4. Ensure that the appropriate person signs off on the Warranty Registration Card
and receives one Owner’s Manual per lift.
