TOOLS RECOMMENDED
THE FOLLOWING IS A SUGGESTION OF BASIC TOOLS RECOMMENDED TO HAVE ON HAND DURING INSTALLATION
AS WELL AS A GUIDE TO PORTRAY COMPLEXITY OF THIS TYPE OF INSTALLATION
THIS IS, BY NO MEANS, MEANT TO REPRESENT THE REQUIREMENTS AS A WHOLE, AS EACH INSTALLATION WILL
VARY TO SOME DEGREE. HARMAR LIFTS ARE DESIGNED TO INSTALL WITH AS LITTLE ASSEMBLY AS POSSIBLE.

LOCATED IN THE HARDWARE PACK IS THE VEHICLE WIRING
HARNESS. THE HARNESS IS MANUFACTURED TO, AND COMPLIES
WITH, THE SAE J1128 REQUIREMENTS. THE WIRE HARNESS IS
APPROXIMATELY 23 ft LONG AND WILL ACCOMMODATE MOST VEHICLES.
YOUR WIRING HARNESS HAS BEEN LEFT UN-ASSEMBLED
FOR EASE OF INSTALLATION. THE END CONNECTOR HAS BEEN
INCLUDED SEPARATELY FROM THE HARNESS TO ALLOW
THE INSTALLER TO THE RUN THE WIRE UNDER AND THROUGH
THE VEHICLE WITH THE SMALLEST HOLE POSSIBLE. FOLLOW
THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO ASSURE PROPER INSTALLATION.
DO NOT CONNECT RED WIRE UNTIL THE VERY END.
UNWIND THE HARNESS AND LAY IT FLAT.
ONE END OF THE HARNESS HAS 2 COVERED PINS.
THIS IS THE LIFT END OF THE HARNESS AND
GOES TO THE REAR CARGO AREA WHERE THE LIFT
WILL MOUNT.
BEGIN ROUTING THE WIRING HARNESS AT THE VEHICLE BATTERY.
ATTACH THE BLACK WIRE TO THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL ON THE BATTERY.
DO NOT ATTACH THE RED WIRE UNTIL THE END.
RUN THE WIRING HARNESS UNDER OR WHEN POSSIBLE THROUGH
THE VEHICLE, BACK TO THE REAR CARGO AREA / TRUNK. ALWAYS
LOCATE THE WIRING WHERE IT CAN NOT BE SNAGGED BY ROAD
DEBRIS AND AWAY FROM THE GAS TANK. THROUGH THE VEHICLE
IS BEST, GAINING ENTRY INTO THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE FIREWALL.
HOWEVER IF YOU WISH TO RUN THE HARNESS UNDER THE VEHICLE,
A HOLE WILL MOST LIKELY NEED TO BE DRILLED TO GET THE WIRE
INTO THE REAR CARGO AREA / TRUNK. IF THE HARNESS IS TOO LONG
FOR THE VEHICLE, COIL THE EXCESS WIRE AND SECURE IT TO THE
VEHICLE FRAME WITH SUPPLIED TIE WRAPS.
DO NOT CUT OR SHORTEN THE HARNESS.
ONCE THE HARNESS IS RUN INTO
THE VEHICLE, REMOVE PIN’S
PROTECTIVE TUBING.
INSPECT THE PIN’S RETAINING FLANGES.

PRIOR TO ANY HOLES BEING DRILLED, IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT
THE LIFT BE RUN THROUGH ITS RANGE OF MOTION IN A “TRIAL FIT.”.
WITH THE HELP OF AN ASSISTANT, ASSEMBLE THE LIFT, AND PLACE IT IN THE
MOST REAR CORNER OF THE CARGO SPACE CLOSEST TO THE BUMBER.
(THIS WILL YIELD THE GREATEST AVAILABLE LOADING AREA)
( PASSENGER SIDE SHOWN. DRIVER’S
SIDE IDENTICAL BUT MIRRORED )
THE AlL-055 WILL REQUIRE 3 HOLES TO BE DRILLED
INTO THE VEHICLE, TO BOLT THE LIFT’S BASE TO THE FLOOR.
THE POSITIONING OF THE BASE IS VERY IMPORTANT
TO A SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF THIS LIFT.
ONCE IT HAS BEEN VERIFIED EACH OF THE HELD MEASUREMENTS DOES NOT
INTERFERE WITH THE VEHICLE’S CARGO AREA / OPENING,
MARK THE 3 LOCATIONS IN WHICH TO DRILL

WARRANTY:
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS LIFT UNTIL YOUR DEALER
HAS SATISFACTORILY INSTRUCTED YOU IN THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE LIFT.
YOUR HARMAR INSIDE LIFT HAS BEEN ENGINEERED AND DESIGNED FOR YEARS OF TROUBLE FREE USE. ALTHOUGH, WITH EVERYDAY USE, SOME
PARTS MAY BECOME LOOSE OR WORN. IMPORTANT! CHECK REGULARLY FOR ANY WORN, LOOSE, OR DAMAGED PARTS OF YOUR LIFT. IF ANYTHING
IS OBSERVED, DO NOT USE THE LIFT ! CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR INSTALLER OF THE LIFT FOR REPAIRS TO BE MADE. FAILURE TO ACT MAY
CAUSE SEVERE INJURY
YOUR HARMAR INSIDE LIFT SHOULD ONLY BE USED FOR THE LOADING AND UNLOADING OF SCOOTERS AND POWER WHEELCHAIRS FOR WHICH IT IS
DESIGNED. IF YOUR PARTICULAR APPLICATION ( VEHICLE & SCOOTER/CHAIR ) CHANGES ( ex. BUY A NEW CAR / UPGRADE TO A NEW POWER CHAIR )
PLEASE CONSULT YOUR INSTALLER OR DEALER, AS THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MAY NOT CONFIGURE THE SAME. DO NOT ADD TO OR MODIFY ANY
PART OF THE LIFT SYSTEM WITHOUT FIRST CONSULTING THE MANUFACTURER OF THE LIFT. ANY MODIFICATIONS MAY VOID ANY WARRANTIES AS
WELL AS THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE LIFT.
IF THERE IS ANY SIGN OF TEARING / LOOSE THREADS / DAMAGE / WEAR
DO NOT USE THE LIFT. SEVERE DAMAGE TO CHAIR / SCOOTER / VEHICLE
AND PERSONAL INJURY MAY OCCUR. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR
INSTALLER, AND HAVE THE STRAP REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.
CAUTION: WHEN ATTACHING THE STRAP HOOK TO YOUR CHAIR / SCOOTER, INSURE THE LIFTING STRAP IS SECURE AND TAUGHT AND THAT IT
POINTS STRAIGHT DOWN BEFORE LIFTING. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN THE SCOOTER OR CHAIR SWINGING TOWARD THE OPERATOR
OR THE VEHICLE.
CAUTION: WHEN USING THE LIFT, KEEP YOUR HANDS AND FEET FROM UNDER THE
CHAIR / SCOOTER AS IT IS BEING LOADED OR UNLOADED.
CAUTION: STOP LIFTING BEFORE THE STRAP HOOK CONTACTS THE STRAP ROLLER
MOUNTED ON THE LIFTING ARM. CONTACT WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE LIFT.
A PROPERLY ADJUSTED AND OPERATED LIFT WILL AVOID THIS.
CAUTION: INSURE THE CHAIR / SCOOTER IS FIRMLY SITTING ON THE FLOOR OF THE
VEHICLE AND NOT SUSPENDED BY THE LIFT DURING TRANSPORTATION. IF THE
SCOOTER / CHAIR IS NOT FIRMLY ON THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE, IT MAY MOVE
DURING TRANSPORTATIONCAUSING DAMAGE TO THE LIFT, TO THE VEHICLE,
TO THE SCOOTER / CHAIR, OR TO THE PASSENGERS.
ALWAYS CHECK
THE LIFTING STRAP
BEFORE EACH USE
FOR DAMAGE
OR WEAR
YOUR HARMAR INSIDE LIFT HAS BEEN DESIGNED AND ENGINEERED TO BE AS TROUBLE FREE AS POSSIBLE TO THE OWNER. BUT, AS WITH ANY
MECHANICAL DEVICE, REGULAR CARE SHOULD BE GIVEN WHILE OWNING AN USING THIS DEVICE.
MAINTENANCE IS NO EXCEPTION.
WE RECOMMEND THAT DEALERS SCHEDULE A PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE INSPECTION AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR ON MOTORS, LIFT FRAME,
WIRING HARNESSES, AND ALL MOVING PARTS OF THE LIFT.
CHECK FOR PAINT CHIPS AND TOUCH UP AND BARE METAL WITH A GOOD GLOSS BLACK ENAMEL OR LACQUER TO INHIBIT RUST. THIS MAY BE
NECESSARY MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN SUBJECTED TO SALT AIR OR ROAD SALT.
ALWAYS CHECK THE LIFTING STRAP BEFORE EACH USE. IF ANY WEAR OR DAMAGE IN NOTICED DO NOT USE THE LIFT ! CONTACT THE
DEALER OR INSTALLER FOR REPAIR. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT SEVERE INJURY OR DAMAGE.
HAND CONTROL UNITS SHOULD BE PROPERLY STORED INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHENEVER POSSIBLE. IF LIFT IS INSTALLED IN THE BACK
OF A PICK-UP TRUCK, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND UN-PLUGGING THE CONTROL IN BETWEEN USES, AND STORING IN THE CAB. EXPOSURE
TO WEATHER IS OK, BUT RAIN FLOODING THE TRUCK BED, AND THE HAND CONTROLLER BEING SUBMERGED IN WATER, COULD CAUSE THE
CONTROLLER TO FAIL.
THIS LIFT COVERED BY A THREE YEAR FACTORY WARRANTY ON MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER FOR MORE

ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH KNOW GOOD / FULLY CHARGED
12 V AUTOMOTIVE BATTERY or KNOW GOOD / FULLY
CHARGED POWER CHAIR/SCOOTER BATTERY
BAD ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS / CIRCUIT BREAKER
PROCEDURE:
CHECK / CLEAN ALL CONNECTIONS THAT MIGHT BE LOOSE OR DIRTY
THIS IS THE #1 CAUSE OF A POORLY PERFORMING LIFT.
THE MOTOR ON THE LIFT REQUIRES QUALITY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
TO OPERATE AT FULL CAPACITY. ANY BREAK IN THE WIRING WILL
SLOW DOWN THE MOTOR, OR CAUSE IT TO OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY.
WHICH IN TURN WILL PREMATURELY DETERIORATE THE MOTOR.
THE LIFT’S VEHICLE POWER HARNESS RUNNING THROUGH OR UNDER
THE VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO ROAD DEBRIS, AND RUBBING AGAINST THE
VEHICLE’S FRAME, CAUSING A SHORT. INSPECT THE FULL LENGTH
OF THE HARNESS TO BE SURE THE JACKET OF INSULATION IS NOT TORN.

PROBLEM:
PROBLEM: LIFTING STRAP OPERATES IN REVERSE
PROBLEM: SCOOTER OR CHAIR TIPS FRONT OR BACK WHILE BEING LIFTED
PROBLEM: LIFTING ARM IS HARD TO ROTATE
REASON:
BE CAREFUL WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING WITH A TEST LIGHT, OR
