This warranty does not cover:
1. Parts needed for normal maintenance
2. Wear parts, including but not limited to cables, slider blocks, chains, rubber pads and pulleys

Fig.11 Fig.12
3. Connecting the air hoses from platforms to air valve on the control unit (Fig 10 & 12).
STEP 4 ANCHORING.
Fi
g.12 Fig.13
1. Using the base plate as a guide, drill each anchor hole in the concrete approximately 51/2”
deep using a rotary hammer drill and 3/4” concrete drill-bit. To assure full holding power, do
not ream the hole or allow the drill to wobble.
2. After drilling, remove dust thoroughly from each hole using compressed air and/or wire brush.
Make certain that the lift remains aligned with the chalk line during this process.
3. Assemble the washers and nuts on the anchors then tap into each hole with a block of wood
or rubber hammer until the washer rests against the base plate. Be sure that if shimming is
required that enough threads are left exposed.
4. Again using a leveler, check base plate leveling for both directions.(See Fig.12) If shimming
is required, use 3/4“ washers or shim stock, placing shims as close as possible to the hole
REV A-082913

locations. This will prevent bending the column base plate
5. With the shims and anchor bolts in place, tighten by securing the nut to the base then turning
2-3 full turns clockwise. DO NOT use an impact wrench for this procedure.
6. If there is more than enough space under the base plate after anchoring, fill up the space
with mortar.
