Step 8 (Final Setup)
Mount the floor plate.
Hydraulic Fluid
Remove the vent plug from the top of reservoir. You are going to fill the tank with fluid.
AW 32 or 46 Hydraulic oil is recommended. We do not recommend the transmission
fluid as it is too thin. The unit will hold approximately 2.64 gallons (10 liters) of fluid.
If the arms go all the way to the top, hydraulic oil will flow to two cylinders. If the arms
go all the way to the bottom, hydraulic oil will flow back to the pump.
Check Assembly
Check all bolts and nuts to make sure they are tight. Do not use an impact gun on
concrete Anchors.
Check all fittings or leaks. If necessary, make sure the arm lock restraints are engaging
properly and smoothly. If not, tap the main lock forward or backward as needed with a
rubber mallet to insure proper engagement on all 4 gears with the arm restraint locks.
Cycle lift up and down to insure carriages are synchronized.
Test & Adjust Lift
With the power properly hooked up and hydraulic oil in the Pump Reservoir, push the
Push Button on the side of the Motor to raise the Carriages off the locks. Release the
Push Button and then pull the Lock Release Cable under each carriage to release the
locks. Run the lift all the way up and down two more times to bleed all the air from the
system.
While running the lift, listen to safeties clicking. Each side should click simultaneously
or with-in a 1/2 second of each other. If they are not clicking together, then adjust the
cables to compensate by tightening the side opposite the one that is clicking last at the
cable bolt at the top of the carriage on the same side.
Remember not to over tighten cables – they should be firm, much like a banjo string or
a fan belt in a car.
Bleed Air from Cylinders
Place a vehicle on the lift and raise until swivel pads are contact with frame of the
vehicle. Raise the vehicle about 3 feet and then lower the vehicle until the tires touch
the floor. Keep raising and lowering the vehicle a few times and increase the height
each time until the vehicle completely reaches to the top. This procedure pumps all the
air from the system.
Lifting speed will be faster (be normal speed) after air is bled out.
Please check Operation, Safety, and Maintenance before use.
