F. Install columns

Lay down the two columns on the installation site parallel, position the power side column
according to the actual installation site. Usually, it is suggested to install power side column
on the front-right side from which vehicles are driven to the lift. This lift is designed with
2-Section columns. Adjust the height according to the ceiling height and connect the inner
and outer columns.

1. When the ceiling height is over 4500mm (177 1/8”), connect the outer columns with the
lower hole

(See Fig. 17).

2. When the ceiling height is between 4200mm (165 3/8”) to 4500mm (177 1/8”), connect
the outer columns with the middle hole

(See Fig.18).

3. When the ceiling height is less than 4200mm (165 3/8”), connect the outer columns with
the upper hole. For this height setting you will need to purchase the shorter cables
(part#217063)

(See Fig.19).

G. Position columns (Do not drill anchor holes at this time)

Position the power side column in its designated place. Place the off side column
approximately 12 1/2” from the power side column. Install the overhead top beam. Once
the overhead top beam is in place and secured, the anchor holes can be drilled.

Ⅴ. TEST RUN

1. Adjust synchronizing cable (See Fig. 47)

Spanner to hold the cable fitting. Meanwhile,

Use
use ratchet spanner to tighten the cable nut.
Make sure two cables have the same tension

Cable nut

so the two carriages locks click at the same time.

Fig. 47

Replace the plastic covers on the carriages.

If the carriage does not synchronize when lifting, please tighten the cable nut.

2. Adjust the safety cable
Lift the carriages and lock them at the same height, strain the safety cable and then

release a little, and then tighten the cable nuts. Check for proper operation.

Bleeding plug

3. Exhaust air

This hydraulic system is designed to bleed air by loosing
the bleeding plug. Lift the carriages to about 12”
and loosen the bleeding plugs. Lower the lift until fluid
comes out og the bleeding plugs. Retighten bleeding plugs.

(See Fig. 48).

4. Adjust the lower speed

(Only for PEAK power unit)

Fig. 48

You can adjust the lowering speed of the lift if needed: Loosen the fixing nut on the

throttle valve, and then turn the throttle valve clockwise to decrease the lower speed, or
counterclockwise to increase the lower speed. Do not forget to tighten the fixing nut after
the lowering speed adjustment has been done.

5. Test with load
After finishing the above adjustment, test run the lift with a load. Run the lift in low
position several times first, make sure the carriages raise and lower at the same time. The
safety locks should lock and release at the same time. Test run the lift to the top.

Ⅵ. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please read the safety tips carefully before operating the lift
To lift vehicle

1. Keep clean of site near the lift;

2. Position lift arms to the lowest posit ion;

3. To shortest lift arms;

4. Open lift arms;

5. Position vehicle between columns;

6. Move arms to the vehicle’s lifting point;

Note: The four li ft arms must at the same time contact the vehicle’s lifting point where
manufacturers recommended

7. Press the UP button until the lift pads contact underside of vehicle totally. Recheck to

make sure vehicle is secure;

8. Continue to raise the lift slowly to the desired working height, e nsuring the balance of

the vehicle;

9. Push lowering handle to lower lift onto the nearest safety lock. The vehicle is ready t o

repair.

To lower vehicle

1. Be sure clear of around and under the lift, only leaving operator in lift area;

2. Press the button of UP to raise the vehicle slightly, and then release the safety locks,

lower vehicle by pushing lowering handle.

3. Open the arms and position them to the shortest length;

4. Drive away the vehicle.

IV. MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Monthly:

1. Re-torque the anchor bolts to 80-100ft lbs.

2. Check all connectors, bolts and pins to insure proper mounting;

3. Lubricate cable with lubricant;

4. Make a visual inspection of all hydraulic hoses/lines for possible wear or leakage;

5. Check safety locks and make sure they are in good condition;

6. Lubricate all rollers and pins with 90wt. Gear oil or equivalent;

Note: All anchor bolts should take full torque. If any of the bolts do not tighten, DO NOT

use the lift until the bolt has been replaced.

Every six months:

1. Make a visual inspection of all moving parts for possible wear, interference or damage.

2. Check and adjust as necessary, equalizer tension of the cables to ensure level lifting.

3. Check columns for plumb.

4. Check rubber pads and replace as necessary.

5. Check the condition and function of the safety locks
