2. Only use the lift in a suitable, well lit work area.

3. Keep the work area clean and tidy and free from unrelated items.

4. Use the lift on level and solid ground, preferably concrete. Avoid soft/
unmade ground as the lift may sink in.

5. Ensure the engine is switched off and the transmission is in 1st or reverse
gear.

6. Ensure a minimum distance of 0.5 m between the motorcycle and static
objects such as doors, walls, etc, to allow for the motorcycle tilting.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: BEFORE LIFTING, ENSURE THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE
STRICTLY FOLLOWED.

WARNING: BEFORE USE, ENSURE THAT THE MOTORCYCLE HAS A SUITABLE
STRUCTURE AND CENTRE OF GRAVITY TO ACCOMMODATE THE LIFT
SUPPORTS WITHOUT DAMAGING THE MOTORCYCLE.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE LIFT IF IT WILL FOUL ON THE EXHAUST OR
OTHER VULNERABLE PARTS. IF NECESSARY REMOVE ANY LOWER FAIRING
AND ENSURE THAT THE MOTORCYCLE IS STABLE ON THE SUPPORTS
BEFORE OPERATING.

POSITIONING THE LIFT

NOTE: If required, the lift can be bolted to a floor or bench as a

permanent installation using the mounting bolt holes in the base.
(Mounting bolts not supplied).

The lift is raised by turning the spindle with the 21mm box wrench provided. DO
NOT attempt to use a power tool.

1. Position the motorcycle in a suitable area, checking that the surface
on which the lift will be placed is solid and flat (preferably concrete).

2. Ensure there is good access and clearance beneath the motorcycle for the
lift.

• The lift can be also be used in conjunction with a motorcycle

that is already raised on a motorcycle lift. Ensure that the lift is
fully located on the lift platform.

3. Slide the two sliding brackets
over the platform of the lift.

4. Inspect the underside of the
motorcycle for suitable
support points, bearing in
mind the centre of gravity of
the motorcycle and which
wheel is to be lifted from the
ground.

5. Screw the saddles into the
sockets of the sliding brackets.

6. Place the lift under the motorcycle in the approximate position required.

LIFTING THE MOTORCYCLE

1. Use the box wrench to raise the platform until the saddles reach the
intended points of contact on the underside of the motorcycle. Adjust
the position of the lift and/or sliding brackets as necessary and proceed to
raise the motorcycle.

2. Lock the position of the sliding brackets for greater security using the bolts
on one side.

3. Turn the box wrench slowly and evenly to ensure no sudden movements of
the motorcycle.

4. For additional security it is advisable to retain the motorcycle on the
stand with suitable straps, especially if the motorcycle is already raised
from the ground on a motorcycle lift.

LOWERING THE MOTORCYCLE

1. When work is complete, check under the lift platform to ensure that there
are no obstructions and that it is safe to lower the unit.

2. Slowly turn the box wrench anti-clockwise to lower the motorcycle.

WARNING: ALWAYS LOWER IN A SLOW AND CONTROLLED MANNER AND
ENSURE THERE ARE NO PERSONS OR OBSTACLES BENEATH THE
MOTORCYCLE, OR IN THE PATH OF ITS DESCENT.

3. When the lift is fully lowered, ensure that the motorcycle is standing on its
wheels and is supported in the upright position.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Keep the lift clean and lubricate all moving parts with oil if required.

2. Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any
visible damage to welds, saddle, frame and all parts including pins and
other fasteners. If any suspect item is found remove jack from service and
take necessary action to remedy the problem.

3. DO NOT use the lift if believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or
shock. Inspect and take appropriate action.

4. Store the lift in its lowest position in a dry location.
