IMPORTANT:
It is the shop owner's responsibility to provide a satisfactory installation area for the lift. Lifts
should only be installed indoors on level concrete floors with a minimum of 4 inches (102mm)
and 3000 psi (20.7MPa) concrete that has been aged a minimum of 30 days. Please consult a
qualified individual if any doubt exists concerning proper installation and subsequent safe
operation of the lift. Do not install the lift on asphalt or outdoors.
Prior to installation, it is the shop owner's responsibility to provide constant electrical power in
the correct voltage, phase, etc., and all wiring for electrical hook-up of the lift. The shop owner
must insure that the electrical installation conforms to local building and safety codes. Where
required, the shop owner will provide an electrical isolation switch located in close proximity to
the lift. This switch will have an emergency stop capability and isolate electrical power from
the lift for servicing requirements.
Hydraulic oil cannot be shipped with the lift and will be supplied by either the shop owner or
the installer. ISO 32 hydraulic oil (10W non detergent hydraulic oil) must be used to fill the
reservoir tank before operating the lift.
It is the shop owner's responsibility to train all operators in
lift operation and safety.

Safety Continued
Basic common sense safety precautions should always be followed when installing, operating and
maintaining the lift as a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury may be present.
In addition:
1. Read and follow all safety instructions and decals included with the lift. Read and follow all safety
instructions in this manual. Read and follow the ALI "Lifting It Right" manual (included with the lift).
Always use the "Vehicle Lifting Points" reference guide when lifting a vehicle. Insure all materials
stay up to date(www.autolift.org/ )
2. Only trained and authorized personnel should position a vehicle and operate the lift. Do not allow
customers or bystanders to operate the lift or be in the lift area.
3. Inspect the lift daily. Do not operate if potential problems have been identified or lift malfunctions.
Do not operate if lift has damaged or broken components. Never walk or work under the lift unless
all safety locks are completely engaged.
4. Never overload the lift. The rated capacity decal is located on the powerpack column. The hydraulic
system on this lift is not designed to be a load holding devise. Mechanical safety locks must be
engaged before proceeding under the lift, with vehicle servicing, or system maintenance. Never
override operating controls. This is unsafe and will void the warranty.
5. Before driving a vehicle between the columns, position all arms to insure unobstructed entry. Do not
hit or run over arms as this could damage the lift and/or vehicle.
6. Use all 4 arms to raise a vehicle. Position all lift pads to contact vehicle manufacturer’s
recommended lifting points. Raise lift slowly until all pads contact the vehicle. Check all pads for
complete and secure contact with the vehicle. Check all arm restraints to insure they are engaged
properly. Check that vehicle is stable on the lift. Only after confirming these procedures, raise the
lift to desired working height.
7. Special care must be used when lifting pick-up trucks. Optional truck adapters may be required to
reach manufacturer recommended lifting points. Always use these lifting points. Running boards
and other installed accessories may also require optional adapters. Insure contents of the cargo box
will not affect vehicle balance while on the lift.
8. Important: Removal or installation of heavier parts can change the vehicle's center of gravity on the
lift resulting in a critical load shift. The vehicle may then be unstable. Plan ahead for this possibility
to insure continued safety and refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s service manual for recommended
procedures.
9. Always keep the lift area free of obstructions and debris. Clean up grease and oil spills immediately.
10. Never raise a vehicle with passengers inside. Before lowering a vehicle, check the lift and lift area
and remove all obstructions. Before removing vehicle from the lift or lift area, position arms to the
drive through position and confirm an unobstructed exit.

the center of bay entrance door. Connect these two points with a short chalk line in the
area where lift will be located. Draw a second chalk line at 90° to locate the positions of
both lift columns. Insure each lift column is equal distance from bay centerline and each
baseplate maintains a minimum distance of 6 inches from any floor seam. Do not install
if floor has cracks or deterioration that could affect lift lift stability. The shop owner is
responsible for confirming there are no obstructions in the installation area like floor drains,
under floor piping or electrical conduit that could be damaged or prevent safe lift
installation and secure lift anchoring. Check ceiling for beams or heating ducts and walls
for protruding structures, etc.. The Lift have two possible overall heights –159.25’’ inches
or 155.25’’ inches. Confirm that the overall height you intend to install will fit in the bay.
Insure the lift can be safely installed in the position you have marked out on the bay floor.
2. Place the lift on wooden blocks so that the steel shipping frames can be removed.
3. Remove protective wrapping. Clear installation area of all packaging materials.
4. Unbolt steel shipping frames and remove from installation area.
5. Carefully remove top column and lay on the floor (carriage side up).
6. Carefully remove column extensions (2 pc), cross-member (3 pc), overhead safety bar,
arms (4 pc), powerpack and hardware box from the lower column.
7. Identify powerpack column (reference diagram #1). Move (carriage side up) to
appropriate location placing the baseplate end on your floor marks. Similarly, move the
second column to the opposite location.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
See the Installation and Parts Reference section of this manual for diagrams and parts lists that
will assist you during the installation process . Use these diagrams and parts lists together with
the following written instructions. Insure the lift installation complies with ANSI/ALI/ALIS, Safety
Requirements for Installation and Service of Automotive Lifts.
1. With columns lying on the ground (carriage side up), tightly fasten one column extension to
one column using bolts, washers and nuts provided (reference diagram #1). Use the
appropriate bolt hole locations to achieve either a 159 inch overall height. Repeat this
procedure with second column.
2. Layout all pieces of the overhead cross-member on the floor and fasten tightly together
using bolts, washers and nuts provided (reference diagram #2).
3. Identify all parts for overhead safety shut-off bar (reference diagram #2). Tightly fasten
these parts to overhead cross-member with bolts, washers and nuts provided.
4. Raise (stand up) each column so that its base plate is located on the floor marking you made
earlier. Confirm that base plate angles and measurements between columns match lift
specifications on page 10. Use extreme caution to insure the columns do not fall
over. Secure base plate of the most level column by installing one only anchor bolt.
5. For optimum safety, two installers should lift and secure the overhead cross-member to
both columns using bolts, washers and nuts provided (reference diagram #2). Hand tightens
all cross-member nuts and bolts. Final tightening is completed in step 9.
6. Using two 4 ft. levels and required shims, level each column vertically on all four sides
(reference diagram #3). Use extreme caution to insure the columns do not fall over.
IMPORTANT: When leveling each column using anchor bolts provided, do not use more
than ¾ inch (19 mm) of shims under any area of the base plate. Use a 4 ft. level to confirm
the overhead cross-member is also level and at 90 degrees to both columns.
7. Drill and install all anchor bolts, washers and nuts (reference diagram #3). Insure that each
nut is torqued to 110 ft-lbs (149 Nm). This should be checked monthly.
8. One equalizing cable comes partially installed on each carriage. Before feeding a cable up
its column to the overhead cross-member, insure the cable is properly seated around the
lower pulley at the base of each column (reference diagram #4). Route each cable up its
column, over the appropriate pulleys in the overhead cross-member, and lower it down to
the opposite carriage. Insure both equalizing cables are properly seated in overhead cross-
member pulleys. Thread one nut to its farthest point on each equalizing cable. Insert
threaded end into appropriate location on the carriage. Install and hand tighten second
nut to secure each cable. Final equalizing cable adjustment is step 17. Install two bolts
and nuts to prevent unintentional cable displacement (reference diagram #4).
9. Completely tighten both sides of the overhead cross-member to its column.
10.Identify component parts for the safety release cable (reference diagram #5). Install safety
release cable so that safety locks in both columns will completely disengage when lift is
lowered. Final safety release cable adjustment is step 16.
11.Identify parts to install arms (reference diagram #6). Install all 4 arms and arm pins. Secure
each arm pin by inserting roll pin provided. Arm restraint adjustment is step
12.Install rubber mounts on power pack bracket.Keeping these rubber mounts between the
power pack and the mounting bracket, securely fasten power pack to the mounting
bracket.

17
13.Identify parts for hydraulic system installation (reference diagram #8). Locate "T" fitting on
the power pack. Tightly fasten hydraulic lines to "T" fitting and appropriately locate two
hydraulic lines to the corresponding hydraulic cylinders (short hose for the cylinder on the
power side, long hose for non-power side). Tightly fasten all hydraulic lines and secure
these lines to both columns and overhead cross-member using hardware provided. Insure
that nothing will rub or wear the hydraulic lines.
14.Attach micro switch to overhead safety bar bracket on power pack side of overhead cross-
member. Wire power pack to shop electrical system.
15.Fill power pack reservoir with ISO 32 hydraulic oil.
16.Operate the lift with no vehicle and no other weight. Raise lifting carriages
approximately 30 inches. Confirm that safety locks on both sides engage properly while
lift is being raised. Verify that both lifting cylinders are properly seated in the base plate
locator hole. Continue raising lift to full height confirming safety locks are engaging. Adjust
safety release cable to insure safety locks can be completely disengaged while lowering lift
(reference diagram #5). Insure that no people or obstacles are near the lift when adjusting
the safety release cable. Lower lift completely. Raise and lower the lift at least three times
or until all air in the hydraulic system is removed.
17.After confirming that all air has been bled from the hydraulic system, adjust equalizing
cable tension as follows: (also reference diagram #4) (Step 1) Hold top of threaded stud
with a wrench to prevent it from rotating. (Step 2) Tighten nut "B" until all loose slack is
removed from the cable. Do not over tighten. (Step 3)Firmly tighten nut "A" to lock
cable in place. Repeat this process for the other cable insuring both cables have the same
degree of tightness.
18.Raise lifting carriages approximately 12 inches off the floor. Choose one arm and align arm
restraint gear with locking plunger insuring both components mesh smoothly and totally
(reference diagram #6). Completely tighten all arm restraint gear locking bolts to maintain
this position. Lower carriage to the floor to insure arm restraint disengages in the down
position. Raise the lift 12 inches off the floor to insure arm restraint engages smoothly
and totally. Repeat this process with the remaining 3 arms. Raise and lower the lift once
more to confirm all arm restraints totally engage and disengage smoothly.
19.Install safety lock cover on each column (reference diagram #9).
20.To avoid damage, safety instruction and information decals are not applied at the factory
but shipped with the lift. The ALI - WL101 Series Label Kit must be applied to lift columns
before the lift is used (reference diagram #101. Insure that all lift operators are trained
in all points covered by this label kit.
21.Operate the lift with a vehicle. Raise and lower the lift three times. Confirm all the
operational functions, equalizing cables and safety lock work well.
Insure this manual along with all operation, inspection and maintenance
instructions are delivered to the owner/user/employer

LIFT PROBLEM TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The following are some suggestions to consider if problems are encountered with the lift. Please
call a Trained Lift Service Person for further clarification and information.
1. Lift does not operate: Possibilities include - blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker –tripped
thermal overload on motor –defective "up" button. Call a qualified electrician for all wiring
questions.
2. Motor runs but lift does not rise: Possibilities include –low hydraulic oil level (check
reservoir tank) - dirt under check valve (press "down" lever and "up" button at the same
time for 10-15 seconds. This will clear small contaminants. If this fails clean check valve
ball and seat by removing valve cover). Call a Trained Lift Service Person if problem
continues.
3. Motor noise (drone or hum) but will not run: Possibilities include –low voltage, faulty
wiring or faulty capacitor (call electrician to confirm) –lift is overloaded ( insure vehicle
weighs less than rated lift capacity).
4. Lift falters or jerks when it is raised or lowered: Possibilities include –air in the hydraulic
system (cycle lift all the way to the top and completely lower 3 –4 times. If this does not
solve the problem call a Trained Lift Service Person.
5. Excessive noise when raising or lowering lift: Possibilities include –pulley assemblies need
lubricating –cable is off the pulleys –carriage sliders need grease –carriage sliders are
broken. Do not operate the lift with broken or damaged carriage sliders or dislodged cable.
Replace immediately.
6. Lifting carriages are unequal when raised: Possibilities include –improperly adjusted
equalization cables –air in the hydraulic system. Adjust cables or call a Trained Lift Service
Person to correct the problem.
Replace all worn or broken parts and components only with
manufacturer approved/supplied parts and components
