HD-7P / HD-7W Four-Post Lifts 25 P/N 5900041 — Rev. M — July 2019
Installing the Ladders and Top Cap
Your Lift has four Ladders (one per Post); each Ladder gets installed on the inside back of a Post.
Ladders are secured at the top and the bottom. All four Ladders are identical.
It is
not
necessary to slide the Ladders in from the very top of the Post.
The Top Caps secure the Ladder at the top of each Post and hold the ends of the Lifting Cables.
Note: It is much easier to secure the bottom of the Ladders once the Crosstubes have been
raised, so that portion of installing the Ladders is described in Securing the Ladders.
Each Ladder has 17 holes in it, spaced four inches apart; these holes are for the Safety Locks. Each
Ladder has a Bolt Hole at the bottom and a Threaded Bolt at the top.
⚠ WARNING Make sure to install the Ladders correctly. If they are not installed correctly, the
Safety Locks on your Lift may not hold the weight of a Vehicle, putting anyone
under and around the Lift in danger.
Not necessarily to scale. Not all components shown. Front and side views combined. Make sure to
install each Ladder through
both Slots
on each Crosstube Gusset.
