STEP 13
(Power Unit Connection)
1. Have a certifi ed electrician run the power supply to
motor. Refer to the data plate found on the motor for
proper power supply and wire size.
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
This equipment has internal arcing or parts that may spark
and should not be exposed to fl ammable vapors. Motor
should not be located in a recessed area or below fl oor
level. NEVER expose motor to rain or other damp
environments. DAMAGE TO MOTOR CAUSED BY
WATER IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
STEP 14
(Lift Start Up / Final Adjustments)
1. Make sure the power unit reservoir is full with four
(4) gallons of 10-WT hydraulic oil or Dexron-III automatic
transmission fl uid.
2. Apply light axle grease to the inside of the posts where
the slide blocks glide,
3. Test the power unit by pressing the push-button
switch. If the motor sounds like it is operating properly,
raise the lift and check all hose connections for leaks. If
the motor gets hot or sounds peculiar, stop and check all
electrical connections.
4. Before proceeding, double-check to make sure all
cables are properly positioned within the grooves of ALL
sheaves. Make sure all cable sheave retaining pins and/or
clips are secure.
5. Check to make sure that all safety locks are cleared and
free.
6. Continue to press the button to raise lift until the
cables get taut and the lift starts to move.
7.
KEEP HANDS AND FEET CLEAR
. Remove hands and
feet from any moving parts. Keep feet clear of lift when
lowering. Avoid pinch points.
8. Check all MAIN SAFETY LOCKS to make sure they
move freely and spring back to the lock position when
released. Lubricate all SAFETY PIVOT points with light
spray-oil.
9. Cycle the lift up and down a few times to ensure that
the safety locks are engaging uniformly and that the safety
release mechanisms are functioning. Re-adjust if
necessary.
NOTE:
CAUTION NEVER OPERATE THE MOTOR ON LINE
VOLTAGE LESS THAN 208V. MOTOR DAMAGE MAY
OCCUR WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
HAVE A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN RUN APPROPRIATE
POWER SUPPLY TO MOTOR. SIZE WIRE FOR 25 AMP
CIRCUIT. SEE MOTOR OPERATING DATA TABLE.
USE SEPARATE CIRCUIT FOR EACH POWER UNIT.
PROTECT EACH CIRCUIT WITH TIME DELAY FUSE OR
CIRCUIT BREAKER. FOR SINGLE PHASE 208-230V,
USE 25 AMP FUSE. THREE PHASE 208-240V, USE 25
AMP FUSE. FOR THREE PHASE 400V AND ABOVE,
USE 15 AMP FUSE. ALL WIRING MUST COMPLY WITH
NECK AND ALL LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
