6. The Wheel Kit

6.1. Your lift was shipped with a detachable Wheel Kit. We will discuss the Wheel Kit now because you may choose to use it

in the next steps.

The Wheel Kit consists of two 8" wheels and their axle bolts. These wheels allow the lift to be tilted backwards and wheeled

over a smooth hard surface.

Here is a photo of the Wheel Kit after installation:

While this is an easy way to move the lift, it is still a two person operation.

These wheels should always be removed prior to actually using the lift.

6.2. Wheel Kit Installation or Removal:

1. Locate the wheel mounting points on the back of the Base. Use a pry bar to lift the corner of the base up about 1".

2. Place the bolt through the wheel as shown in the photo above.

3. Use a wrench to secure the wheel by tightening the bolt.

4. Reverse this process when removing the Wheel Kit.

6.3. Using The Wheel Kit:

1. With one person at the back of the lift and one person at the front, tilt the lift backwards so that it is balanced on its

wheels.

2. Carefully move the lift along a flat, hard surface to its desired position.

3. Remove and store the Wheel Kit once the lift is in place.

7. Unpack Your Lift

7.1. Keep in Mind: As you unpack, watch out for any shipping damage. If you sign for a damaged lift without noting

shipping damage you will not be able to make a claim later.

7.2. Small Parts: Look inside the grey Controller Storage Box to see what small parts and paperwork it contains.

7.3. Zip Ties: Remove any zip ties that secure cables or rope to the Column. Do not remove any other zip ties at this point.

7.4. Unbolt the Platform: The Platform has long bolts through its floor holding it to the pallet. Use a wrench to unbolt and

remove them. If there are additional screws through anchor holes in the Armed Base, remove them as well. Slide the lift

from the pallet.

7.5. Wheel Kit option: You have an attachable Wheel Kit that is useful for moving the lift across a flat, hard surface.

Attaching the wheels will let you tilt the lift back as if it were on a dolly. If this would help you move your lift, consider

attaching the wheels now. See the

Wheel Kit Section

for wheel attachment instructions.
