OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The lift is very simple to operate. Turn on the power
supply first. Then press and hold the START button
on the motor to activate it. The motor operates an
internal pump that forces hydraulic oil into the lift
cylinder, which extends the roller chain and raises the
lift. (Fig.18)
As the lift rises, an internal safety latch will pass over the
steel stops (rectangular latch blocks which protrude from
the back, inside of the lift column), and you will hear
“clanks” as it does so. This sound is normal, and
indicates that the safety latch is passing over the stops
properly. Release the START button when the lift has
reached its desired position. For safety, every time it is
suggested to lock the lift by pressing down the
RELEASE handle, until the lift rests on the latch block.

To Lower Lift:
You first need to raise up the lift a little by pressing down the START button, if lift is in the raised locked
position. Then pull the Lock Release Cable (one time) to release the latch. After that, press down and hold
the RELEASE handle. The lift will lower down by gravity. No extra power is required to lower the lift.
After the installation is complete, before the first time application, raise the lift without load about three feet
high and then lower it to floor. Repeat this process for two or three times. And then top off the hydraulic oil
reservoir again, if necessary. This assures that hydraulic oil is distributed everywhere in the system that it
needs to be.
NOTE: Only top off the reservoir when the lift is in the lowest position. If you fill the reservoir in a
raised position, there will be too much hydraulic oil in the system when the lift is lowered, which the oil
will squirt out of the reservoir!!
