5. Walk around the vehicle and make sure there are no obstructions or any other issues that will
interfere with the raising of the Platforms.
6. Place the Lift Blocks under the manufacturer recommended Lifting Points of the vehicle.
7. At the Console, press and hold the Raise button.
8. Raise the vehicle to four inches off the ground, then check the position of the Lift Blocks. Lower
the vehicle and adjust any Lift Block that is not correctly situated.
9. Watch the vehicle and the Platforms as they rise.
If the Lift becomes unstable or the vehicle starts moving, release the Raise button immediately.
10. When the Platforms are just past the desired height, release the Raise button.
The Lift stops rising.
11. Press the Lower button briefly to move the Platforms back down, which engages them on the
most recently passed Safety Lock.
If you do not go far enough past the lowest Safety Lock, then lower the Platforms, you may miss
the Safety Lock. This would mean that if you continue to hold the Lower button, the Platforms will
go all the way back to the ground.
If you miss the lowest Safety Lock, simple hold Raise again and go somewhat further past the
lowest Safety Lock, then hold Lower again to lower the Platforms onto the lowest Safety Lock.
About Safety Locks
Your lift comes with multiple Safety Lock positions; they serve two important functions:
• Safety. Safety Locks hold the P-9000LT Platforms in place. Once your P-9000LT is engaged on
the desired Safety Lock, the weight of the vehicle holds the Platforms in place. If the power goes
out, the Safety Lock holds the P-9000LT Platforms, and anything on them, in place.
⚠ WARNING Always leave your P-9000LT on a Safety Lock or on the ground. Although rare, it is
possible for Hydraulic Fluid in the Hydraulic Cylinders to leak, causing the Platforms
to slowly come down.
Always leave it your Lift either fully lowered or
engaged on a Safety Lock.
• Adjustable height. Having multiple Safety Locks means you can raise the vehicle to just the
right height for the work you are performing.
Lowering a Vehicle

This moves the Platforms off the Safety Lock.
