5. Lift Setting: Position columns in bay using
dimensions shown in Fig. 1a & Fig. 1b. Place column
with power unit mounting bracket on vehicle passenger
side of lift. Both column base plate backs must be square
on center line of lift. Notches are cut into each base plate
to indicate center line of lift.
Use appropriate equipment to raise carriage to first latch
position. Be sure locking latch is securely engaged.

appropriate dimension. Install (4) 3/8"-16NC x 3/4"
HHCS & 3/8”-16NC Flanged Locknuts, do not tighten.
Mount switch assembly towards power unit column as
shown, using (2) 1/4"-20NC x 3/4" lg. HHCS, 1/4”-20NC
Nuts and 1/4" Star Washers. For Narrow Bay installation,
see step 7b, all others go to step 7c.
7b. For Narrow Bay installation only: Cut off 11” from
the length of the bar and cushion on the end opposite the
1/4” mounting hole. Continue to step 7c.
7c. Continued Overhead Assembly: Insert 1/4"-20NC
x 2" HHCS through pivot hole in end of switch bar. Insert
opposite end of bar through slot in switch mounting
bracket. Then secure HHCS and Switch Bar to overhead
as shown, using 3/4" spacer and 1/4”-20NC Locknut.
Tighten Hex bolt leaving 1/16” gap between the spacer
and the overhead assembly.
8. Overhead Installation: Install overhead assembly to
column extensions with (2) star washers and (8) 3/8" x 1"
HHCS and 3/8” Flanged Locknuts, Fig. 4. Tighten bolts
at center of overhead assembly.

9. Power Unit: First install (1) star washer onto one of

Concrete and Anchoring: Concrete shall have a
compression strength of at least 3,000 PSI and a minimum
thickness of 4-1/4" in order to achieve a minimum anchor
embedment of 3-1/4". When using the standard supplied
3/4” x 5-1/2” lg. anchors, if the top of the anchor exceeds
2-1/4” above the floor grade, you DO NOT have enough
embedment.

the (4) 5/16"-18NC x 1-1/2" HHCS. This is very
important for grounding. Put the (4) 5/16"-18NC x 1-1/2"
HHCS thru holes in power unit bracket using Push-Nuts
to hold in place, Fig. 7a & Fig. 7b. Mount unit with motor
up to column bracket and install (4) 5/16” star washers
and 5/16” Nuts. Install and hand tighten Branch Tee to
pump until O-ring is seated. Then tighten locknut to 35-40
ft-lbs, and connect supply hoses to Tee, Fig. 8a or Fig. 8b.
NOTE: Over tightening locknut may tear O-ring.

CAUTION DO NOT install on asphalt or other

similar unstable surfaces. Columns are
supported only by anchors in floor.

6. IMPORTANT: Using the horse shoe shims

provided, shim each column base until each column is
plumb. If one column has to be elevated to match the
plane of the other column, full size base shim plates
should be used (Reference FA5112 Shim Kit). Recheck
columns for plumb. Tighten anchor bolts to an
installation torque of 150 ft-lbs. Shim thickness MUST
NOT exceed 1/2” when using the 5-1/2” long anchors
provided with the lift. Adjust the column extensions
plumb.

deep in concrete floor using holes in wheel spotting dish
as guide. Drive both anchors, provided, into concrete to
secure dish.
16. Arm Restraints & Superstructure: Before
installing arms, install arm Restraint Gears as follows:
Install Restraint Gear into arm clevis, as shown in Fig. 17,
so that the rounded edge (top side) of the gear teeth is
facing upward. Then, install the (2) 3/8"-16NC x 1-1/2"
HHCS (8 total for all 4 arms) and 3/8" Spring
Lockwashers into the gear and arm as illustrated Fig. 17,
but do not tighten.
After installing Restraint Gears, raise carriages to a
convenient height. Grease swivel arm pins and holes with
Lithium grease. Raise Gear Block by pulling upward on
pin-ring to allow enough clearance for the Restraint Gear
and arm to slide into the yoke clevis and under the teeth
of the Gear Block, Fig. 18. Install 1-1/2" diameter arm
pin(s) and 3/16" x 2" cotter pin(s), Fig. 19. After
installing arm pin, torque the two Restraint Gear bolts to
30-34 ft.-lbs. Let the Gear Block down allowing the teeth
of the Restraint Gear and Gear Block to mesh together,

CAUTION If fill-breather cap is lost or broken, order
replacement. Reservoir must be vented.
18. Door Bumper Installation:
A) Press long bumper on column edge, Fig. 20.
B) Press short bumper on top edge of carriage tube, Fig.

19. Latch Cable Adjustment:
A) Check to make sure the latch will properly engage
and disengage. Slowly release the latch handle. A 1/8”
gap between the top of the latch dog and the column
is allowable.
B) When raising, listen to latches to be sure that both
latch dogs fall into latch slots. If they do not, loosen
clamp and adjust tension as necessary.
C) Install left latch cover using 5/16-18NC x 3/8” lg
PHMS.
