All of Global Lift Corp’s Commercial Series Lifts are equipped with a sealed
24 volt battery that is rechargeable. Along with a charging unit, hand held
controller and control compartment. The 24 volt battery mounts right

battery should be charged for 5-8 hours prior to the 1st use.
The unit is operated by the 2 button easy to use controls. The arrow
pointing down will lower the lift when depressed, the arrow that points up
will raise the unit when depressed. If you hear the low battery indicator
tone “Do Not Use the Lift” remove the battery from the unit and recharge
the battery.

COMMERCIAL SERIES POOL LIFT OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Prior to using the Commercial Series Pool Lift perform a test run of the lift empty. Once
that is completed and the lift is back to original position, make sure that the arm lifts
are in the up position and the seatbelt is unbuckled, once acknowledged you are ready!
Once you are in the seat, buckle the seatbelt (make sure it is snug) and lower the arm
rails. Before you attempt to operate the lift, make sure the pathway is clear from any
obstacles.
Once you have the 2 button easy controls in your hand, press the arrow that specifies
down, keep in mind you don’t have to go to the bottom of the cycle, you can stop the
lift whenever you deem comfortable to exit the lift. However when exiting the pool
while on the lift, you should complete the cycle back to the top to have a completely
safe exit from the pool.
Once submerged into the pool, unbuckle the seatbelt and raise the armrest and slide off
of the seat. Once you are done with your pool activity, make sure the seat is lowered
sufficiently to allow you too easily slide back into the chair. Once you are seated, buckle
the seatbelt and make sure that it is snug, lower the armrest.
Next, to raise the lift chair out of the pool, make sure you press the button/arrow that
represents up on the control. Apply continuous pressure until the lift comes to a
complete stop at the end of the complete up cycle on the deck. You now can unbuckle
the seatbelt and raise the arm rest and exit the unit.

Front of Anchor Plate can be placed 11” to 16” from water’s edge depending on you application
February 2012

Step 1: Determine the location for installation (Make sure all ADA requirements are
met).
***NOTE: The installation of Global Lift Corp’s anchor system’s are a guideline of
minimum requirements. In some states or municipalities they may require additional
steps due to their local codes or ordinances.***
Step 2: Make sure that all the parts are present (Refer to the parts list)
1 -Anchor Plate with Bonding Lug & bolt
3 -5/8” x 1” Stainless Steel Bolts
3 -6” Anchors
Step 3: At the determined location for installation, chalk out a 3’ X 3’ area prior to
cutting out the concrete. (Refer to overview, the front of the Anchor Plate must be
11” to 16” from the water’s edge and 6” deep). New Construction, the concrete
must be 6” deep with a ½” reinforcing rod, minimum of an 18” grid.
NOTE: Make sure all local codes and ordinances are met.
Step 4: Once the 3’ X 3’ area is cut out, make sure you drill in the inner wall of all 4
sides of the area (refer to the section detail) for the purpose of cold pinning the new
concrete to the old concrete. Use 1/2” rebar, 6” to 8” in length.
Step 5: Attach the 3 –6” threaded anchor’s with the 5/8” x 1” bolts (included) to the
Anchor Plate and tighten down.
February 2012

Step 6: Place the Anchor Plate in the area, make sure that the front of the Anchor
Plate is 11” to 16” from the water’s edge and that the decal’s arrow on the anchor
plate is pointing to the water’s edge (refer to overview). A key element is to make
sure that the Anchor Plate is level and square with the pool so that your Commercial
Series Lift sits properly on the deck.
Step 7: Bonding the unit –The bonding lug is included with the Anchor plate
(furthest point from the pool wall on the Anchor Plate) locate the bonding lug,
connect the bonding lug to the bonding grid.
NOTE: Make sure all local codes and ordinances are met.
Step 8: Pour in your concrete, (make sure you cover the holes in the 3 threaded
anchor’s so you don’t get concrete in the threads) minimum of 4,000 psi with
reinforcing rod. Also make sure that the tops of the threaded anchors are flush with
the deck. Before you install your lift make sure you let the concrete set up for 48
hours.
Step 9: After the concrete has set for 48 hours, now it’s time to install your lift. Place
your Commercial Series Lift over the anchor holes, screw in the Anchor bolts that are
included and tighten down securely. Once you have completed the installation, please
refer to User’s Manual for a safe operation.
