ABOUT MYLIFTER
The myLIFTER system is designed for home and garage use; it is not to be used in commercial or industrial applications.
The myLIFTER unit is designed to lift 50 pounds straight upward or 100 pounds with the
included pulley system. If you load the myLIFTER unit with more than 50 pounds without the pulley system or more than 100 pounds with the pulley system, the unit?s weight sensors will prevent myLIFTER from lifting the load. The myLIFTER unit also uses an internal brake system that locks the spool automatically when the cable is not moving or if the unit loses power.
PARTS IDENTIFIER
Note: You will also need a ladder, stud finder, cordless drill, ½" wrench, Phillips screwdriver, and pencil. Do not attempt to install the system if parts are damaged or missing. If any of your parts are damaged or missing, please email support@GarageSmart.com.
