Operation
8.17 Moving the lift unit in the work area
If a lift unit needs to be moved in the work area, either
move it manually (with the handle and wheels) or with a
forklift. A lift unit can be manually wheeled to the work
area over smooth, level surfaces for short distances.
Jolting caused by the lift unit’s wheels catching
on uneven surfaces can cause physical strain and
personal injury. A lift unit should be transported by
forklift if traveling over longer distances and/or
rough or uneven surfaces. A forklift must also be
used if the lift unit is being removed from a pallet
(e.g., when the lift unit is shipped to the customer).
Moving the lift unit with the handle
1.
To move the lift unit for positioning, push down on the
actuating lever (Fig. 14) to move it into the Raise
position.

1.
Then, pump the handle by pulling it toward you until the
base of the lift unit is raised the desired amount above
the floor. The base can be raised a maximum of about
1 inch.
2.
Once the base is at the desired height, move the lever
up to the Neutral position. The lift unit can now be
maneuvered to the desired location.
3.
Once the lift unit has been positioned, the base should
be lowered to the floor. The base is lowered by gently
pulling up on the actuating lever to move it into the
Lower position. The farther the actuating lever is pulled
up the faster the base will lower to the floor.
Remember, the base of the lift unit should always be
lowered to the floor prior to lifting a vehicle.

Moving the lift unit with a forklift
You can move the lift unit by forklift, using the two forklift
pockets (Fig. 15) provided on each lift unit
.
Be sure the forklift forks are fully inserted into the forklift
pockets and the lift carriage is fully lowered before lifting.
Use only these pockets to move the lift units with a forklift
.
