G. Position columns
1. Position the columns so the base plates line up with the chalk line. It is
recommended to install the power side column on the passenger side of the
vehicle. Meanwhile, assemble the overhead top beam. Spread the columns
to approximately 122-5/8” from inside column to inside column. Install the
overhead top beam.
2. Level and plumb the columns and shim where necessary.
3. Drill 3/4” holes. If the top of the anchor exceeds 2 inches above the floor
grade, you DO NOT have enough embedment. Tighten the anchor bolts
between 60 and 86 foot pounds.

1. Adjust equalizing cables
Test Run
Use a wrench and hold the cable fi tting,
meanwhile use a wrench to tighten the cable
nut. Make sure the two cables have the same
tension and the two carriages lift at the time.
Replace the plastic cover on the lifting head.
2. Adjust safety lock cable
Lift the carriages and lock at the same height, pull the safety cable and then
release a little, and then tighten the cable nuts. Make sure the safety locks click
at the same time.
3. Bleeding the cylinders
Lift the carriages to about 12 inches and
loosen the bleeding plugs, Lower the lift until
hydraulic fl uid seeps from the tops of the
cylinders, Tighten the plugs.

4. Adjust the lower speed (Only for PEAK power unit) (Adjust with a
load on the lift)
You can adjust the lowering speed of the lift if necessary: Loosen the locking
nut on the throttle valve, and then turn the throttle valve clockwise to decrease
the lowering speed, or counterclockwise to increase the lowering speed. Do not
forget to tighten the locking nut after the lower speed adjustment has been
completed.

5. Test with load
After fi nishing the above adjustment, test run the lift with a load. Run the lift in low
position several times, make sure the carriages lift and lower at the same time, the
safety lock device should click at the same time. Test run the lift to the top.
NOTE: If the lift vibrates while going up, lubricate all pulleys, pins and
wear blocks. If the lift vibrates on the way down, bleed the cylinders.
