STEP 16
(Start Up)
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
This equipment has internal arcing or parts that may spark and should not be exposed to flammable va-
pors. Motor should not be located in a recessed area or below floor level. NEVER expose motor to rain or
other damp environments. DAMAGE TO MOTOR CAUSED BY WATER IS NOT COVERED UNDER WAR-
RANTY.
During the START UP procedure, observe all operating components and check for proper installation and
adjustment. DO NOT attempt to raise vehicle until a thorough operational check has been completed.
1. Make sure the power unit reservoir is full with 12 quarts AW-32
hydraulic oil or Dexron III or VI automatic transmission fluid.
2. Spray the inside of the columns where the slide blocks glide with
white lithium grease.
3. Test the power unit by pressing the push button switch. If the motor
sounds like it is operating properly, raise the lift and check all hose
connections for leaks. If the motor gets hot or sounds peculiar, stop
and check all electrical connections.
4. Before proceeding, double check to make sure all cables are prop-
erly positioned within the grooves of all sheaves. Make sure all cable
sheave retaining pins and / or clips are secure.
5. Check to make sure that all safety locks are cleared and free.
6. Continue pressing the raise button until the cables get tight and the lift starts to move.
7. KEEP HANDS AND FEET CLEAR. Remove hands and feet from any moving parts. Keep feet clear of
lift when lowering. Avoid pinch points.
8. Check all main safety locks to make sure they move freely and spring back to the lock position when
released. Lubricate all safety pivot points with a white lithium grease.
9. Run the lift up and down a few times to ensure that the safety locks are engaging uniformly and that
the safety release mechanisms are functioning. Re-adjust if necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
There will be initial stretching of the cables with increased loads. The equalizer cables should be checked
weekly for equal tension. Failure to do this will cause uneven lifting. The cables should always be adjusted
so that they are equal tension when resting on the safety locks.
