Clamp Inspection

For each sliding adjustable pad mount on the lifter, inspect the

clamp for damage and worn parts. Make sure that the

neoprene contact pad is not so worn that metal is exposed.
Engage each clamp to make sure that the pad mount is held
securely in place. Correct any deficiency before using the
lifter. See the following section for adjustment instructions.

Clamp Adjustment

In order to securely hold the sliding adjustable pad mount in position on the pad frame, the

clamping force of the pad mount may require adjustment. To increase the clamping force,

release the clamp, loosen the upper adjustment nut and tighten the lower adjustment nut. To
reduce the clamping force, release the clamp, loosen the lower adjustment nut and tighten the
upper adjustment nut. Adjustments in 1 revolution increments are recommended. After making
an adjustment, slowly engage the clamp, making sure that the neoprene contact pad fits freely

through the hole in the pad mount tube. Once the clamp is engaged, make sure the clamp holds
the pad mount securely in place. Be sure to verify the clamp adjustments before resuming
normal operation of the lifter.
