Final Leveling
It is very important that the Lift’s Runways are level, or as close to level as possible. The following
procedure describes how to fine tune how level your Lift is.
The goal is that the four Safety Locks on the Lift engage at the same time.
To do final leveling on the Lift:
1. Raise your Lift to the first Safety Lock position (the Primary Safety Locks, not the Slack Safety
Locks).
2. Use a transit level or other leveling mechanism to evaluate how level the Posts and Runways are to
each other.
3. If you need to adjust a Runway, use the Top Nut and Stop Nut on the Top Cap of each Post to
make adjustments to the Ladder in that Post (which impacts the levelness of the Runway and
when the Safety Locks engage).
4. Raise the Lift to full height, listening as the Safety Locks engage.
If you hear the Safety Locks engaging at the same time, no further adjustments are necessary.
If the Safety Locks are not engaging at the same time, check the leveling, make necessary
adjustments, and then raise the Lift again and listen as the Safety Locks engage.
5. When you are satisfied the Lift is level, firmly secure the Nuts at the top of each Post.
