COATS 520 Wheel Lift - Manual (Page 7)

Operation
Control Identification
Toggle switch (Fig. G) is used to raise and lower the
wheel:
- move the switch upward (Position 1) to clamp
the wheel and raise it until the wheel is auto-
matically centered with the balancer stub shaft.
- move the switch to the center (Position 0) to
release the wheel from the clamps so that the
carriage can be moved backwards (do this only
when the wheel has been clamped onto the
balancer stub shaft).
- move the switch downward (Position 2) to
lower the wheel clamps to load or unload a
wheel.
Figure G- Toggle Switch
Adjustable Muffler
Disconnect the air supply
line before attempting any
adjustment.
This wheel lift has been equipped with an adjustable
muffler. The purpose of this muffler is to allow the
operator to control the rate at which the wheel
descends. It is recommended that the muffler be set
as follows:
1. Turn the muffler clockwise until it is finger tight
against the valve.
2. Turn the muffler counterclockwise two revolu-
tions.
This has been preset at the factory. The further the
muffler is adjusted counterclockwise the faster the
wheel will descend. Caution should be used when
setting the descent rate. The muffler can fall off if
adjusted too far. The lift MUST have the muffler in
place to operate.
