PREPARATIONS
Read this manual and refer to parts list & drawing on
pages 12-13.
You have already opened the container to view this
manual. Read this and safety section.
Open the winch box and remove small parts inside.
Open all containers and spread out parts for easy
access.
WARNING
Only qualified assembiers should work on this.
No children. Be very careful. Use hard hats and
safetyshoes.
MAST BASE LEG ASSEMBLY
Restthe base tubeassembly on thefloor. Position the
bottom ofthe mast tube onto the base tube mounting
plate so that the holes line up. When looking into the
mast tube and standing between the legs, the row of
holes in the side of the mast tube must be on the right
side. Refer to Assembly Drawing on page 13.
Insert four (4)3/8 x 1 boits downward through the four
(4) attaching holes and secure with a flanged nut.
Tighten securely. Your machine may be shipped with
the slider removed from the mast. 1f so proceed as
follows
Instali the slider down over the mast tube with the
safety lock lined up with the holes on the right side.
Note: Be sure the four (4) nylon buttons stay in their
holes onthe inside and do not fall outwhile installing.
WINCH - TOOL TRAY ASSEMBLY
Mount the winch ontothe mounting angle using four (4)
3/8 xl” boits pos itioned with the heads inward toward
the mast and theflange nuts inside the winch. Tighten
securely. Be sure the crank handle is positioned
towards the rear (away from the legs).
Locate thewinch mounting angle onto thetwo boits 0fl
top of the mast with the winch mount on the side
opposite the safety lock holes.
Position the tool tray on top of these bolts and secure
with the Y2” flange lock nuts. Tighten securely.
The hole in one corner of the tool tray is for mounting
a trouble light if desired and should normally be
positioned towards the legs (front).
Instail the winch crank handle ontothe pivot shaft and
tighten the nut that is provided securely.
1f cable is not installed:
Fasten the cable onto the winch drum following the
winch instructions provided with the winch (repro
duced on pages F1 -F2), so thatthe cable runs inside
of and over the roller tube and downward next to the
vertical mast tube. Tighten the cable locking clamps
securely.
Slip the loop of the cable up over the lift lug on the side
ofthe sliderand crank upward to remove the slack and
pull securely.
It is recommended that the lift lug be bent ifiward
slightly, hitting it with a hammer, so that the cable
cannot slip off inadvertently.
WHEEL ASSEMBLY
The wh~els are already loosely assembied onto the
pivot shaft with washers and cotter pins. Remove a
cotter pin, wheel and washers from one end, slide the
assembly through the pivot tube on the back of the lift
afid replace with a washeron each side of each wheel,
install the cotter pin afid spread the ends to secure.
LIFT ARM ASSEMBLY
To assemble the lift arm moufit assembly merely slip
it onto the pivot tube which extends forward from the
vertical slide tube. Line the lock lug up with one ofthe
grooves in the index plate, raise the lock lug up and
slide the assembly inward until the lock drops down in
one ofthe grooves and locks in front of the index plate
to hold the entire assembly in position and prevent
from rotation.
The arm mounttubes should be below the pivot tube
as shown in the assembly drawing. This positions the
arms lower to the floor and more nearly centers the
bad about the center pivot shaftfor easier rotation and
better balance.
To rotate the pivot arm assembly merely lift up on the
bock lug and rotate until it drops into the desired
position slot.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: It is not necessary to lubricate the pivot
assembly, it will rotate rather hard with a heavy bad
but this is an advantage in holding it in position as one
rotates. Lubricant may be used if desired.
Now slide the lift arms into the square sleeves on the
arm mount assembly.
NOTE: 8e surethelongerliftarm is on the leftside as
facing the vertical mast tube and the shorter one is on
the right. This will put the ends of the arms approxi
mately even. Slide them into desired position and
secure with the %~‘ balI lock pins in the desired hole.
When preparing to lift a bad, it is desirable to keep the
lift arms approximately equally spaced from the center
pivot so that the bad will be centered.
~WARNJNG
Tie any bad securely on both sides before raising
and remove the spark plug wire before servicing.
DO NOT RUN ENGINE ON LIFT.
Be careful of fuel, oil or acid spillage when
rotating and hold securely.
Do not allow fire cbose to an eng me.
Keep all safety Iocks in place, secure and operat
ing properly
Lower bad (keeping feet away from the lift area)
before leaving.
Add on wheel cup. The wheel cup extension is a loose
piece which may be positioned any place along either
side to accommodate a wheel of a machine that has
an odd (not evenly spaced) wheel positioning. This is
particularly notable on the Lawn Boy, in which oase
the wheel cup should be positioned to the outer set of
holes on the right side to accommodate the right inner
rearwheel of the push mower. Bolt it in place with two
(2) 3/8 x 1” bolts and flange nuts.
CHECK OUT
The vertical slidershould now slidefreely up and down
the column using the winch handle. It takes ten (10)
turns to fully raise or lower.
NOTE: It is necessary to hold the safety lock away
from the tube while bowering as itwill stop in each hobe
as t bowers past it. The lower area has no holes to
ease bowering once the bad is out of the normal work
range.
No bubrication is required on the vertical slider column.
The rollers should roll freely and there will be no
significant bad on the slider washers except when a
bad is offset considerabby to one side. Machine
should now be ready for use.
CAUTION
Check to make sure that all parts are installed
and positioned the same as shown on the parts
drawing. Do not exceed 250# bad and don’t lift
it all on one (1) arm.
CHECK 0FF
Check the machine against the drawings and com
plete the pre-use check list on page 4. Read the
operating instructions and check Lit’L HEFTEEto be
sure all functions operate properby and safeby.
CAUTION
Do not albow anyone on or under lift when
operating.
Use Lit’L HEFTEEonIy on a level firm floor.
FF-M50 -9 (REV. 1/95, 9/98)

CAUTION
Read the operator’s manual. Any lifted bad
poses a potential hazard and if used carelessiyor
improperly can cause falling loads and serious
1 nj u ry.
Review the “before operation” check list to make sure
that everything is in proper condition, bolts are tight,
etc. See page 4. Read and understand all items in
safety section.
Position Lit’L HEFTEE for convenience in driving
machines on oroif and providing easy access to the lift
controls.
Use Lit~L. HEFTEE only on a firm level floor.
WARMNG
Do not albow children or unqualified operators to
use or work on this lift and do not use alcohol or
drugs when using any equipment. Do not
attempt to raise loads that exceed 250# and do
not lift allof the bad on the end of only one arm.
Lower to fboor before leaving.
WARNING
Keep all safety locks in place and in good condi
tion. Wear safety shoes and eye protection.
Your Lit’L HEFTEE should now be ready to use to
elevatea machine. Somegeneral principalswill make
operation quicker, easier, and safer. As follows:
1. Measure the width of the outside of the machine
wheels to be raised. Then position thewheel arms so
the wheels of the lifted machine will rest in the center
of the channels. Either lift arm may be moved inward
or outward by removing the spring balI pin. Liftthe end
of the arm so itslides freely in its tube and reposition
as needed. 8e sure and position both arms so thatthe
machine wheels fit securely in the channels and the
bad is as near centered on the lift as practical.
NOTE: Position so that on heavy machines theweight
will be centered as well as practical.
NOTE: It is a good idea to keep the machine moved
in closer to the mast as long as accessibility is not
compromised, just to get more rigidity and stabibity.
2. Now most machines can just be pushed directly
onto the Lit’L HEFTEE and into the wheel channels.
WARNING
Do not operate lift with anyone on the machine or
under it. Use extra caution if anyone is near.
3. For odd or uneven wheel tread machines it may be
necessary to bolt on the extension wheel cup as
needed.
4. TIE DOWN. It is most practicab to raise the
machine one to two feet for ease of access. Then tie
the machine securely to the wheel channels using the
two nylon tie straps provided. The bestway usually is
to run one strap length ways on each side and route
inboard of the push arm mounts, wheels, etc.
1f any wheels are to be removed, then tie so that the
strap will not be in the way of the wheels nor will t be
released when the wheel is removed. This may require
tying crossways of the deck or even in an DX” pattern
ifappropriate.
5. The machine may now be raised to the desired
working height and tilted as required.
MOWER SERVICE
Some mower decks have a fixed discharge which
extends out considerably beyond the wheels. In this
case t will usually be desirable to lower the wheels
(raise the deck) so the chute and deck do not rest on
the arm tubes.
OPERATIING INSTRUCTIONS
Everything known has been done to make easy, convenient, and safe opera tion with a
minimum of strain and time. No tools are required for any forma! use adjustments or
uses, except to bolt on the extension wheel cup ifneeded.
FF-M50- 10
HL- 10

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Always tie down the machine securely on both
sides before working on it. Operate and/or rotate
carefully and use the standard tie downs always.
When rotating be careful of spilling gasoline, oil,
battery acid, etc. Do not smoke or allow fire near
machine.
1f oh and/or gas is to be drained from the machine by
rotating or tipping, be very careful in placing the
containerto avoid spillage. Rotating a heavy machine
should only be attempted with two (2) persons to
provide control. Be certain the tie straps are tight
before attempting any tipping.
WARNING
Remove the spark plug wire from the engine
beforeattemptinganyservice. AN ENGINE COULD
START merely by pulling a blade around in the
removal or installation process.
Never attempt to run any engine while on the lift.
The opportunities for injury are SEVERE AND
OBVIOUS.
When positioning the mowerfor properworking height,
raise to desired level, then Iowerenough sothe safety
lock is engaged in the hole. Leave the handle in this
position so that the winch is also supporting the bad.
NOTE: When operating the winch KEEP CABLE
TIGHT. Any boose cable will cross and twist on the
drum. Then when tightened, it may have slack areas
which, as the bad is lowered, will albow a short
dropping of the bad as the slack is taken up.
To bower, raise the winch high enough so the safety
lock may be swung out of the tube, then, holding the
bock raised with the left hand, lower the winch by
cranking It countercbockwise with the right hand.
There are no batches to reverse or any other action
required. The handbe will stop wherever released,
eithergoing up ordown.
CAUTION
Nevertry to use the lift as a hand truck. 1f a mower
must be moved on the lift, lower it down near the
floor level before tippirig backwards on thewheels.
Also, operate carefully so it does not roll off
sideways. Keep feet away from the base tube
and out from under the lift arms while lowering.
Wear safety shoes and other protective clothing
as appropriate.
OTHER USES
The Lit’L HEFTEE makes a very convenient lifting
platform for raising a bad to work on it.
CAUTION
Do not raise or lower the lift arms with anyone on
or under it. Use it for a work table only when the
lift has been lowered into the safety locks.
Always use a pallet or other platform that is locked to
the arms and under them so that it cannot tip or slip off
of the forks.
Asimplework platformwith stirrupsthat go around the
arms can make a real contribution to safety and
productivity by raising such things as engines, tooling,
or other hard to handbe difficult objects to a level most
convenientforworking on etc.
OTHER ATTACHMENTS
The entire lift arm and mountassembly may be slid off
of the vertical slider mereby by raising the pivot lock in
one of the grooves and sbiding the assembly offthe end
of the tube. To use the engine mount, chain saw, or
string trimmer brackets, just remove the two (2) lift
arms and insert the desired service bracket. The most
convenient positions are shown in the brackets draw
ing.
As can be seen by the great extent to which safety has
been considered on this machine, we sincerely hope
that no one will ever be injured or hurt. We cannot
guarantee that, as anything can cause harm if used
improperly, even a rock. Any raised heavy object is a
potential hazard if it shoubd fabb with someone under
neath.
PLEASE USE WITH CAUTION AND RESTRAINT.
CAU11ON
Before leaving Lft’L HEFTEE always lower it to
the ground to discourage uriauthorized use by
the careless, the unqualified, or children.

SERVOCE ONSTRUCTIONS
CAU11ON
Read the operator’s manual before trying to
operate or service. Any lifted bad poses a
potential hazardarid if used carelessly or im
properly can cause falling loads and serlous
i njury.
WARNING
Do not allow children or unqualified operators to
use or work on this lift and do not use alcohol or
drugs when using any equipment. Do not
attempt to raise loads greater than it will easily
lift. Do not exceed 250#. Lower to floor before
leaving.
The Lit’L HEFTEE has been designed to minimize
service as much as possible. Refer to parts drawings
and safety pages before working on Lift HEFTEE.
INSPECTION
Periodically check your Lit’L HEFTEE carefully
for loose bolts, proper cable lay and any sign of
cracks, kinks or frayed areas. Replace if found.
DO NOT USE if any problems are found. Your
safety depends on it.
LUBRICATJON
1. The rollers used after 4-98 in the slider are solid
steel with bronze busings. These need to be removed
orjust remove the bolt and squirt grease into the base.
2. The rollers, referto #1 6, page 13, on which the cable
rods must be removed and insert grease to prevent
wear and drag.
3. The arm holder, refer to #6, page 13, will rotate
easily if grease is added to the bore.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS
Proceed as follows.
SLIDER ROLLER BEARINGS.
1f any portion of the slidertube comes within 1/32 of an
inch, underload, oftheverticalmasttube, itmeansthe
rollers or slider washers are worn or damaged and
should be replaced. Repair as follows.
First, remove the arm assembly from the slider tube
pivot shaft by lifting the rotation lock in one of the
grooves and just pulling the assembly off the pivot
shaft. It is easier to hand le if the lift arms are removed
from this assembly first, but may be done eitherway.
To replace, unhook the cable from the slider tube, this
may require bending thetab out slightly as it may have
been bent in after installation. Remove the tool tray
and winchfrom the top ofthe mast by removing the two
(2) Y2” nuts. Now slide the slider tube assembly off the
top of the mast, being careful not to loose the nylon
wear buttons or allow them to drop inside the tube.
Check the rollers and pivot boltfor clearance. 1f loose,
floppy, worn, etc., replace these rollers. Merely
remove the nut and slide the bolt out, insert new part.
Grease the roller and slide the bolt back in and tighten
the nut securely. Do not try to tighten it up solid
against the rollers. See p. 13 for proper assembly,
To replace, the butttons hold them in place so they do
not fall out. You may use silicone glue or grease to
help hold in place. Next, lower the slider assembly
back onto the vertical masttube and replace the winch
and tool tray, re-attach cable, and lower the slider tube
till the cable is tight.
CAUTION
Alwayswear safety shoes and safety glasses and
proper clothing when doing service work on the
LîtL HEFTEE or anything else. Lower into safety
locks before working on L1t7.. HEFTEE.
WARNING
Do not operate lift with anyone on the machine or
under it. Use extra caution if anyone is near.
CAUTION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
o This brake winch is built for multi-purpose hauling and lifting operations. It is not to be used as a
hoist for lifting, supporting or transporting people, or for loads over areas where people could be
present.
• Respect this winch. High forces are created when using a winch, creating potential safety hazards.
It should be operated and maintained in accordance with instructions. Never allow children or any
one who is not familiar wiih the operation of the winch to use it. A winch accident could result in
personal injury.
• Check winch for proper operation on each use. Do not use if damaged. Seek immediate repairs.
• Never exceed rated capacity. Excess bad may cause premature fallure and could result in serious
personal injury. This winch is rated on first layer of cable on the hub. Using more layers of cable
increases the bad on the winch.
• Never apply bad on winch with cable fully extended. Keep at least three full turns of cable on the
reel. Check cable on every use. Replace at the first sign of kinks, broken wires, deformation or any
other damage.
• Secure bad properly. When winching operation is complete, do not depend on winch to support
bad.
• Operate with hand power only. This winch should not be operated with a motor of any kind. 1f the
winch cannot be cranked easily with one hand, it is probably over-loaded.
• 1f winch will be used in freezing, icy conditions, apply silicone spray to ratchet pawl and spacer
items, V, W, X, or Y. Do n~f spray other brake mechanism parts.
WINCH MOUNTING AND CABLE
ATTACHMENT — For maximum strength and safe
ty, this winch should be mounted with three 3/8
bolts (Ml0), washers and lock washers, Usa Grade
8 for 1500 lb/680 kg or greater capacity. (Sea parts
drawing). Using fewer bolts or alternate locations
will result in damage to the winch base and the
winch may malfunction.
Attach cable or rope by method shown in
sketch.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS — Wind cable on
winch real by turning winch handle in clockwise direc
tion. This should produce a loud, sharp, clicking
noise. The bad will remain in position when the han
dle is released. Wind cable off the winch reel by turn
ing winch handle counterclockwise (no noise will be
produced). The bad will remain in position when the
handle is released, but for extra security it is recom
mended that the handle be turned clockwise until at
east two clicks are heard. This will add extra tightness
to the brake mechanism. Always satisfy yourself that
the winch is holding the bad before releasing the
winch handle.
4~kIMP0RTANT: Sufficient laad must ho applied to
the cahbe to overcome internal resistance and oper
ate the brake properly, otherwise turning the crank
handle countercbockwise will only remove the han
WINCH MAINTENANCE — In order to insure
maximum performance, a periodic inspection for
any necessary preventive maintenance should be
made. Check at east once annually and more fre
quentby when the winch is exposed to an environ
ment which is particularly dirty or wet, For continued
smooth performance and increased life, occasional
ly grease gears, real shaft and handle threads. An
dle from the shaft — the real will not turn. The mini
mum operating bad requirement is 50 1h (23 kg) for
Models DLB35OA, DLB35OAG, DLB800A,
DLB800AG, DLB1200A and DL.B1200AG, 75 1h (34
kg) for DLB1500A and Db..B1500AG, 175 1h (80 kg)
for Dl..B2000AG and OLB2500A.
Models DLB8O5A, DLB12O5A, DLB15O5A &
DLB25O5A are equipped with a lockout lever for the
purpose of ‘freewheeling’ cable out when there is no
bad on the winch. To ‘freewheel’ cabbe out, simply
turn the handle countercbockwise until bockout lever
can be engaged behind handle hub. In this condition
cable can be easily pulled from the winch drum.
A~h.. WARNING: Never put winch in freewheel mode if
any potential for a bad on the cabbe exists. Engaging
the bockout lever keeps the winch from stopping in the
event that a bad is accidentally applied.
occasionab drop of oib on the drive shaft bearings is
also recommended. 1f winch will be used in freezing,
icy conditions, apply silicone spray to ratchet pawl
and spacer items V, W, X or Y~ Note: Do not oib or
grease brake mechanism items H and J.
Keep winch in good working order. Damaged or
severely-worn parts create unnecessary dangers and
could resubt in personal injury or property damage.
4~ WARN ING READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATrEMPTING To
INSTALL, OPERATE OR SERVICE THIS WINCH. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERJOUS OR FATAL INJURY. RETAIN THESE
INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
ASSEMBLY — Thread the handbe onto the winch
drive shaif and be certain that a clicking noise is pro
duced when the handle is turned cbockwise. Install
the spring and bocknut (Items E and G) on the end of
the drive shaft as shown on parts drawing. These
parts may appear to serve no function, but they pro
vide several important faib-safe features, and should
not be altered or removed.
