2.3 UNPACKING AND HANDLING THE LIFTING COLUMN

Unpacking Procedure

· Remove all plastic wrap and cardboard. Be careful not to cut into the lower hydraulic hoses and

fittings or to scratch the paint or damage the safety decals.

· Carefully open the parts box, avoid cutting the enclosed communication cables.

· Take out all of the cable reels, battery clamps, spare parts and document packet.

Preparing Lift for Initial Startup

To transport the columns to a location within the service facility for setup, please use the pallet jack

attached to the column. Each column can be easily moved by lifting up and holding the lever on the

handle, by raising up & lowering down the pallet jack handle in a pumping motion, 3-5 times until the

column’s central base is lifted from the floor. You can now maneuver the lift columns to any location

by pulling the pallet jack handle to the desired location. Once you release the lever on the pallet jack

handle, the column will lower down to the ground. The lift shall not be operated unless the column

is fully lowered to the ground.

Filling the tank with hydraulic oil after the lower column cover is opened and the red plug on the

motor pump tank is removed. Use a clean funnel and add new hydraulic oil (AW-32) into the tank.

The oil level shall meet the indicating label on the tank. The approx. amount of oil per tank is 3.6Gal /

13.5 Liter.

After finished, reinstall the red plug back to the top of the tank. Close motor pump cover and secure

with bolts.

Note: The hydraulic system was tested during manufacturing. Each hydraulic cylinder and the power

unit tank was filled and cycled to test for leaks and for performance. During this process the

hydraulic cylinders were bleed to remove any air. The hydraulic oil was removed from the tank after

testing. Because residual oil at the bottom of the tank and inside the cylinder remain, additional

hydraulic system bleeding is not necessary.

To install the batteries, first take away the battery covers on both sides of each column. After the

battery is positioned, secure it with the battery clamps provided. Then connect the power cables to

the battery terminals. Repeat for other side.

Note: Ensure to correctly connect terminals: Red/Pos. = (+), Black/Neg. = (-)
