Select a Site
Keep the following in mind when selecting a site for your P-9000LT/F:
• Enough space. Make sure there is adequate space on all sides, plus enough space above for
the vehicles you will be raising. See Clearance Around the Lift for more information.
• Radial Shift. When you raise the Lift, the geometry of the scissor arms moves the Platforms up
at an angle, towards the Hinged Ramp end of the Lift. The amount of radial shift for the P-9000LT
is approximately 12 inches. Note that radial shift is always this direction, towards the Hinged Ramp
end of the Lift, no matter which way the vehicle is facing.
• Check for overhead obstructions. The site must be free of overhead obstructions.
• Concrete specifications. Do not install the lift on cracked or defective concrete. Make sure the
concrete is at least 4.25 inches thick, 3,000 psi, and cured for at least 28 days (if newly poured).
Make sure the floor is defect-free, dry, and level. For flush-mount models, there must be 4.25
inches of concrete below the bottom of the concrete cutout.
⚠ WARNING Do not install the Lift on a surface with 3° of slope or more. A 3° degree slope or
greater could lead to property damage, personal injury, or death; the slope makes
the Lift less stable, which could lead to vehicles falling off of it.
• Power. You will need a 208 to 240 VAC power source available near the Console. Use a 25 amp
or greater fuse for a 230 VAC, 1 phase circuit.
• Operating temperature. The Lift is designed to be used between temperatures of 41º to 104ºF
(5º to 40ºC).
• Outdoor installation. The Lift
cannot be installed outside. It is for indoor use only.
• Second floor installs. Do not install the Lift on a second floor or elevated floor without first
consulting the building architect and getting their permission.
• Dress properly. Always wear protective gear (like safety goggles, helmet, heavy gloves, suitable
working clothes, safety boots, ear protection, and so on) when installing the Lift.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry; contain long hair; keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from
moving parts.
⚠ WARNING Always wear appropriate protective gear when installing the Lift.
