COLUMN ASSEMBLE
Assemble the column extensions and the positive carriage stop brackets to each
column using 12 sets of 12x35 hex bolts, flat washers, lock washers and nuts.
Repeat for opposite column and extension. Determine if the lift will be in the tallest
or lowest position at this time. Note that the TLT211-AS column extensions are
already assembled and may be preassembled at either the short or tallest position.
It is recommended that the TLT211
-AS lift be installed at the tallest position to
accommodate large and taller vehicles. Recheck the bolt tightness on the TLT211-
AS the bolts may
have loosened from shipping and handling. See illustration
below for reference. (Tallest position shown below)
INSTALLING THE COLUMNS
 Raise the completed power side column upright to the chalked location. Align
the baseplate of column with the chalk line layout. Using the baseplate as a
template, drill holes into the concrete slab and use the five concrete anchor
bolts to attach the column to the floor. (Note: the TLT211-AS lift uses six (6)
anchor bolts) During the drilling process, do not allow any movement of the
column from the chalk line.
 Note: Power side column should always be installed first. After the
power side column is installed the slave column is raised into
position
but not anchored to the floor. Installing the overhead beam must be
completed before the slave side column is anchored to the floor.
 Use a four foot level on both sides of the column and use shims under
baseplate to level the column in both directions. Ensure that the base plate is
completely supported by shims including near the center where it does not
contact the floor.
Note: If theTLT-211AS lift is
installed at the tallest position,
this carriage stop bracket is
not to be used.
