1.2. THE PRODUCT
miniLIFT “Lift & Move” is a small size scissor lift with two pneumatic actuators,
designed for those workshops which also require a machine that is capable of
partially lifting vehicles up to 5,000 lbs. This lift is able to perform three different
movements highlighting the following: lifting of the front and rear axle and shifting
of the car. This means that, using the miniLIFT, the car will always have the front
or rear wheels raised.
miniLIFT “Lift & Move” is a very versatile and manageable product. Thanks to
the steering wheel, we can move the lift effortlessly to any point of the workshop
and we can also control the lifting of the vehicle.
The pneumatic system is easy to connect so you only need an air intake.

3.2. HANDLING OFCONTENTS
The pallet can be manipulated with a forklift or pallet truck. Then, cut the strips that
secure the structure to the pallet and leave the lift so that the wheels are in contact
with the pavement.
If a crane to move the lift is used, work should be performed by qualified staff,
meeting safety standards. Do not touch or place under the load radius of the
crane. Please follow these recommendations:
•Place the Lift in a horizontal position and fix the crane to the Lift with two
ribbons or slings at each end to carry the structurecorrectly.
•Ensure that the ribbons are in good condition and properlyplaced.
•Place the lift on the pavement so that the wheels are in contact with the
pavement.
4. BEFORE USING THEMINILIFT
4.1. WARNINGS
The miniLIFT is a mobile lift that must be used within a workshop with a perfectly
leveled floor, with enough features to support the lift and its maximum load and
protected from adverse factors such as temperature, humidity, wind, rain, etc. it
should not be used on a rough surface or other types of surfaces not meeting the
minimum requirements for proper functioning. However, the miniLIFT is prepared
to also work in preparation areas with grid surfaces, as long as it is free of
obstacles and special attention is paid.
This product has been developed to repair vehicles, not to lift people. The lift is not
designed to work underneath it.
Before starting the installation, the entire area should be rid of any obstacle.
The operation with the lift must be performed by skilled and responsible staff. In
addition, the operator must comply with safety and prevention of occupational risks
in the workplace.
Any other operation not described in this manual will be a risk borne by the owner
and will be considered negligence, which will automatically entail the loss of
warranty.
NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible in any way for any damage
caused to persons or property due to misuse of the lift.

4.2. SECURITY ZONE
In order to get the necessary security it is advisable to set the space where you
will use the lift at a certain distance from another object orwall.
The operations the user does, like handling, lifting and lowering the car should be
done carefully. There should be no one in the work area except the operator.
4.3. PERSONAL PROTECTION
The operator must always wear appropriate work clothes and take all necessary
measures to maintain security in compliance with the regulation of occupational
risk prevention. During handling, the user must ensure his own personal safety
and the safety of people and objects around him. The operator must take into
account all the recommendations contained in thismanual.

of the spring that is in the steering wheel. In order to easier understand the
procedure, assemble the steering wheel as follows:

5.3. SUPPORTS FITTING
Attach the supports as shown in the following image:
5.4. PNEUMATIC CONNECTION
The pneumatic system that contains the miniLIFT allows an important freedom of
movement and a clean of oil devoid job.
The drawing of the pneumatic circuit is as follows
The valve that we manipulate to lift and lower the lift is at the steering wheel. To
complete the installation, a fitting must be installed on the valve with a quick
coupling system that fits the needs of the workshop. ESCO does not provide said
fitting. Attach the fitting exactly as indicated in the figure below.

5.5. START UP
After making the connections, it is time to make the necessary checks to ensure
that the lift goes up and down properly:
WARNING: Before performing this operation, make sure that no
person or object is under or next to the lift.
To raise the lift, actuate the joystick upward. To lower, press the joystick down. In
any situation, the lift will go up or down as we continue pressing and remain
inoperative when we stop.

6. DIRECTIONS FORUSE
If the operations described in section 5.5 were successful, the Lift & Move is ready for
use. Such operations must be controlled before performing any operation.
In addition, make sure that the vehicle mass to be handled does not exceed 5,000 lbs,
maximum authorized by the lifting load.
6.1. LOCATION OF THE LIFT
The Lift & Move is easily movable thanks to the steering wheel that has an
anatomical shape. It also contains two swivel casters allowing directing it
comfortably and effortlessly.

Make sure that the lift is well perpendicular to the length of the car. Otherwise, the
miniLIFT may suffer and not work properly.
Before placing the lift under the vehicle, we must remove the nearest support at
the steering wheel. After entering the miniLIFT, we put the steering wheel in a
horizontal position and place the support again.
The steering wheel is articulated to avoid tripping around the perimeter of the car.
It is advisable to fold and secure it with the bolt.

6.2. SET UP THE LIFT ATTACHING IT TO THE VEHICLE WITH REGULARSUPPORTS
The support system is capable of reaching a large number of points under the
vehicle. This is due to the length of the arms. Support should be moved until it is
under the ideal spot in order to be able to lift (where normally the jack is placed;
generally, the tab or heel). Keep in mind that the two supports have to be placed at
the same length in relation to the platform, as shown in the image, without
exceeding the maximum.

In addition, regular support can be adjusted to different heights depending on
vehicle characteristics and location of the tab or heel. This is due to the
configuration between said supports and the holder. The maximum and minimum
height can be seen in the following image.

6.3. SET UP OF VEHICLE WITH SKATES (ACCESSORIESINCLUDED)
The main peculiarity of the miniLIFT Lift & Move, unlike the miniLIFT Classic
[Model 92050], is the possibility to freely move the lift alongside the car over the
floor.
This maneuver is made possible by skates that are to be coupled to the lift. To do
this, it is necessary that the lift is at the highest level with the car properly placed
on it. Then decide on which part of the fixed arms we will place the skates. The
holder of the support can be in the middle, before or after, depending on the
configuration of the car and, with a light pressure, the skate is automaticallyfixed.

This accessory has a security system that the operator must take into account
when coupling. This system consists of a pin that prevents the lock from coming
out ensuring a perfect coupling without risks. Keep in mind that the skate has an
end with a hole necessary to support the steering wheel in it.
Once coupled, it is necessary to empty the contents of air found inside the
pneumatic cylinders. To do this, the button for lowering and vacuum have to be
pressed simultaneously to let the Lift & Move hold itself only by the 4 swivel
casters. At this time, the car can move freely pushing it and / or lifting it.

WARNING: It is forbidden to use the skates while using 4x4 supports.
There is a danger of tipping the lift.
6.4. SET UP THE LIFT ATTACHING IT TO THE VEHICLE WITH 4X4 SUPPORTS (ACCESSORIES
OPTIONAL)
There are cases in which the distance between heels is less than 50 inches In
most of these cases we found as well that the height from ground level to the heel
is very high. That's why we created 4x4 support accessories.

4x4 supports can simply be placed on the platform of the Lift & Move and can be
easily combined with regular supporters and so regulate the desired height, as
shown in the image below.
