MH-400EA MH-400EB MH-400EC
The MH-400 operates on a cable and winch lift system. The lift hieght is limited by the height of
the upright boom. Currently, three different lift heights are offered. They are the 400A, 400B and
400C. Their respective maximum lifts are shown in Fig. 1-1.
The 400A and the 400B have similar footprints, while the 400C is slightly larger. Their respective
sizes are shown in Figs 1-2, 1-3 & 1-4.

1-3: Care and Maintenance
The RollRunner is relatively maintenance free, generally only re-
quiring periodic inspections. Over time, you may need to replace
the lift cable, which is simply performed by removing the old ca-
ble and inserting the new cable and crimping at the open end.
1-4: Safety
The RollRunner is equipped
with a safety brake which will
automatically engage in the
event of lift cable breakage.

Section 2: Machine Setup
2-1: Uncrating & Inspection
After carefully removing your
RollRunner from the crate,
check to assure that all the
bolts are tight and that no
components have come loose
during shipment. Carefully
inspect all 4 wheels making
sure they roll freely and are
free of damage. If any visible
damage has occurred in ship-
ment, contact AZTECH imme-
diately.
2-2: Safety Brake Inspection
As noted in 1-4, your RollRun-
ner is equipped with a safety
brake which will prevent a load
from falling in the event of a ca-
ble break. To assure it is work-
ing properly, check to see
that the 2 springs that activate
the safety brake have tension
and are attached at both ends.
2-2 Battery Connection
The RollRunner’s motorized
lift utilizes a 12 Volt deep-cycle
battery (not provided) which
may be purchased at virtually
any automotive or department
store. To connect the battery,
simply connect red cable to
the positive (+) terminal, and
the other cable to the negative
(-) terminal. The RollRunner
comes with an auxillary battery
charger and will need to be
charged periodically dependant
on use. Generally the higher
the cold cranking amps (CCA)
the battery is rated at, the less
frequently it would need to be
charged.
2-4: Winch & Cable Inspec-
tion
Before lifting a load for the
rst time, remove the protec-
tive winch cover and visually
inspect to assure that the
cable is seated properly in the
grooves of the pulleys.
-Operate the ROLL RUNNER without the safety cover.
-Lift load over people
-Exceed the 400 LB weight limitation
-Use the ROLL RUNNER to transport people
