2. Loosen the arm restraint gear ring bolts and adjust the arm restraint gears so that the teeth on the gear ring mesh
smoothly with the teeth on the gears of the arm gear stop. (See gure 22)
1. Raise the lift high enough so that the arm gear stops. Attempt to automatically engage the restraint gears on the
arms.
3. Tighten the gear ring bolts
4. Verify the operation of the arm gear stops by pulling up on the
key ring of the arm gear stops. Pivot the arms back and forth
and test the operation of the arm gear stops in various positions.
When releasing the arm gear stop, the pin should drop and the
gears should engage. (See gure 23)
6. Adjust the gear ring on the arm as necessary to ensure smooth
operation and solid engagement of all four arm restraint pins.
Each arm restraint assembly must be inspected and adjusted
as needed before each and every time the lift is operated. Do
not operate the lift if any of the four arm restraint systems are
not functioning properly. Replace any broken components or
components with broken teeth only with authorized or approved
replacement parts.
5. Ensure that the arms do not move when a force of at least
100 pounds is applied laterally to the fully extended arms. If
they move, readjust the arm restraint gear ring and/or tighten
the arm restraint gear ring bolts.
