INSTALLATION

Improper installation can cause accelerated wear, resulting in catastrophic failure which may cause property damage and / or bodily injury. Manufacturer will assume no liability for loss or damage of any kind, expressed or implied, resulting from improper installation or use of this product. Read this installation manual in its entirety before attempting to install or operate the lift.

STEP 1 SELECTING SITE

Before installing your new lift, check the following.

z OVERHEAD OBSTRUCTIONS: The area where the lift will be located should be

free of overhead obstructions such as heaters, building supports, electrical lines etc.

z FLOOR REQUIREMENTS: Visually inspect the site where the lift is to be installed

and check for cracked or defective concrete. This lift must be installed on a solid level concrete floor with no more than 2 degrees of slope. A level floor is suggested for proper i

nstallation and level lifting. If a floor is of questionable slope, consider a survey of the site and/or the possibility of pouring a new level concrete slab. This lift is designed to be installed on a minimum of 4" thick, 3500psi, steel reinforced concrete. Do not install this lift on asphalt, wood, or any other surface other than described. This lift is only as strong as the foundation on which it is installed.

z DO NOT install this lift outdoors unless special consideration has been made to protect

the power unit from weather conditions. The Power unit is not water proof!!!

z DO NOT install lift close to wall. It is necessary to leave adequate clearance for safety

walking. Suggest clearance be 1 meter (3 feet) at min.
