not, tap the main lock forward or backward as needed with a rubber mallet to insure proper engagement on all 4 gears with
the arm restraint locks.

Cycle lift up and down to insure carriages are synchronized.

Place a vehicle on the lift and raise until swivel pads are contact with frame of the vehicle. Raise the vehicle about
3 feet and lower until the tires touch the floor. Keep raising and lowing the vehicle. Increase the height each time until the

the Motor to raise the Carriages off the locks. Release the Push Button and then pull the Lock Release Cable under each
carriage to release the locks. Run the lift all the way up and down two more times to bleed all the air from the system.
•
While running the lift, listen to safeties clicking. Each side should click simultaneously or with-in a 1/2 second of
each other. If they are not clicking together, then adjust the cables to compensate by tightening the side opposite the one
that is clicking last at the cable bolt at the top of the carriage on the same side.
