Wheel Lift Setup
CAUTION
Always DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL
POWER before servicing equipment. This
prevents electrical shock or accidental
movement of the systems operated by the
electrical power.
CAUTION
Always DISCONNECT AIR SUPPLY before
servicing equipment. This prevents accidental movement of systems operated by compressed air which may result in personal
injury. BLEED THE AIR SYSTEM by actuating
all the valves.
CAUTION
STAY CLEAR OF MOVING PARTS when
reconnecting the unit of the air supply. The
position of control valves may have changed
during the servicing of the machine.
50xx, 60xx, 70xx Series Instructions
Before beginning this modification or attempting
any maintenance, remove the electrical power and air
source from the machine; also, bleed off any stored
compressed air by exhausting through the air blast foot
valve.
1. Remove the lower bead loosener pad; reserving
the bolts.
2. Next, align slots in the anit-tip bracket with the
holes in the chassis were the lower bead loosener pad
was attached.

CAUTION
Do not operate machine without the anti-tip
bracket installed. It is required for maximum
machine stability, when wheel lift is operated under load that would shift the center
of gravity.
3. Now reassemble the lower bead loosener pad over
the anti-tip bracket, as shown.
