Adjusting the limit switches
The Auton lift utilizes limit switches to control your preferred positioning of the unit.
The limit switches are located on the motor. Depending on the model you may have either a red or blue
limit switch motor head.

Limit switches are preset at factory
but may be changed.
Two (2) adjusting screws for the limit switches
are located at the right hand end of the motor
while facing the front of the unit.
Using a power tool to adjust the limits will void the warranty.
The #1 screw controls the up travel.
The #2 screw controls the down travel.
Turn the #1 screw clockwise (-) to decrease the up travel. Turn counterclockwise (+) to increase the up travel. Turn
the #2 screw clockwise (-) to decrease the down travel. Turn counterclockwise (+) to increase the down travel.
Before decreasing "up" or "down" travel, run the lift in opposite direction for approximately 6" and stop.
* If positioning requires more than 5 cycles of the lift, the built-in thermal overload protector will disable the
overheating and possible damage. The unit will automatically re-set itself within 10-15 minutes.
