10AP Series Two-Post Lifts 44 P/N 5900265 — Rev. A10 — September 2023
Connecting the Hydraulic Hoses
Some of the Hydraulic Hoses were put into place much earlier in the installation. It is now time to finish
installing the Hydraulic Hoses and connect them to the Power Unit.
If they were not put into position earlier, you must do so now, before beginning the following
procedure. Refer to Routing the Hydraulic Hoses for full instructions.
The following illustration shows how to connect the Hydraulic Hoses in both Lift configurations.
Drawing shows side of Powerside Post. Not drawn to scale. Not all components shown.
To finish connecting the Hydraulic Hoses:
Locate the Ø10mm Short Hydraulic Hose and the remaining Elbow ORB Hydraulic Fitting
(5550183).
On the Power Unit, locate a Hydraulic Pressure Port on the Power Unit (labeled P, P1, or P2),
remove the shipping plug, and then install the Elbow Hydraulic Fitting. Place a few drops of
hydraulic fluid on the O-ring before installing on the Power Unit.
See the drawing on the following page for possible Hydraulic Pressure Port locations.
Note: There are multiple Ports on the Power Units that are used with 10AP Series Lifts. However,
each 10AP Series Lift uses only one Hydraulic Pressure Port (labeled P in the drawing
