Battery
The LiftPlus® must be charged for six hours before using it the rst time. If the LiftPlus battery
completely discharges, recharging will take 72 hours. When not in use, it is recommended to keep
the LiftPlus plugged in to maintain a maximum charge.
General Battery Warnings
• Do not connect accessories to the battery; this will cause premature battery failure.
• Unauthorized modication could create a hazardous condition and result in serious injury.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid, which can burn eyes, skin, clothes, etc. Use caution! Always wear
gloves when working with batteries. If contact occurs, ush immediately with water and get
medical attention. Protect surfaces from battery damage by placing batteries on rubber or plastic
surfaces.
• To prevent electrical shock, do not touch non-insulated parts of the charger output connectors,
battery connectors or battery terminals. Do not use connectors that are cracked, corroded, or do
not make adequate electrical contact. Use of damaged or defective connectors could result in re
or electrical shock.
• Keep sparks, ame and smoking materials away from batteries.
• Batteries can supply a large amount of current. Do not wear jewelry or watches when working on
the batteries as an accidental shorting could occur and cause severe burning.
Battery Life
The LiftPlus is powered by one 12V battery.* The lift motor draws current from the battery based on
the amount of effort required to lift the load. A fully-charged battery will power 125 - 150 lift cycles
with a median load; however, extreme temperature ranges and extreme loads can have an effect on
the amount of power available during one charging cycle.
General Charging Warnings
• Use only the Magliner 15V charger designated for use with LiftPlus. Charge using a grounded
120V electrical outlet.
• Do not operate the unit when the battery charger is plugged in.
• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
• To prevent risk of re, use the charger only in a dry, well ventilated room without ammable uids
or explosive gases.
• Make sure the cord is located such that it will not be a trip hazard or otherwise subject to
damage or stress.
• Do not operate a charger with a damaged cord or plug – replace immediately.
• To reduce risk of electrical shock, unplug the charging unit from the AC power supply source
before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.
• Always use battery chargers supplied by Magline, Inc. Other battery charging units could cause
damage to your batteries or personal injury.
• To avoid damage to battery charger connectors and cords, disconnect by grasping the plug
body and pulling it straight out of the outlet or receptacle. DO NOT pull on the cord. DO NOT
twist, rock, or pull the connector sideways.
• The metal tip on the end of the plug may be hot when it is rst unplugged.
*Battery has a warranty of six (6) months

Using the LiftPlus
NOTE: The LiftPlus must be unfolded and the folding latch locked before the quick change latch is
lifted or lowered. Failure to do so can damage the unit.
Loading the LiftPlus
1. Do not exceed the load capacity of 350 lbs. (120 lbs. on high-speed models).
2. Set the parking brake before loading (see page 10).
3. Be sure the load center of gravity is located as close as possible to the center or rear of the attachment.
Lift/Lower Operation
1. Move the power switch to the On position.
2. To lift the load, pull the lift actuation switch toward the back of the unit.
3. To lower the load, press the lift actuation switch toward the front of the unit.
Lift Overload
1. The overload protection circuit prevents lifting motion when it senses an excessive load. When the
circuit is triggered, a red light illuminates on the back of the LiftPlus.
2. To reset the overload circuit, lower the platform all the way to the bottom. The red light will turn off
when lifting function has been restored.
Circuit Breaker
1. When the circuit breaker trips, the button will pop-up and show a white face.
2. Reset the circuit breaker by pressing the button down until you hear a click. It will not reset for the rst
few seconds after tripping.
3. If the circuit breaker tips repeatedly, contact Magline.

Moving with the LiftPlus
Changing Attachments
1. Lift or lower the quick change latch to comfortable height.
2. Pull the detent pin out of the quick change latch (located at the bottom front of the latch).
3. Angle the attachment slightly upward from center. Position the lift attachment notches at the top of the
quick change latch. Carefully push the attachment down and toward the quick change latch so that the
attachment is ush with the front of the latch.
4. Push the detent pin so that it contains both faces of the attachment inside both faces of the quick
change latch. Push through fully so that the pin does not back out on its own.
5. Reverse these steps to remove the attachment from the quick change latch.
1. Always stay behind the unit when moving it. Use both hands on the handlebars.
2. Never turn the unit quickly - this can cause the load to slide off the lift attachment.
3. To use the unit in two-wheel mode, apply the brake and gently pull back on the handlebars. When you
are ready to proceed, release the brake. NOTE: Never initiate two-wheel mode with a raised load!

Adjusting the Brakes
The brakes are adjusted at the factory, but should still be checked before every use. If the braking
power is insufcient, the brakes should be adjusted. Perform the adjustment on a dry, non-slippery
surface.
There are two forms of adjustment. One adjusts the brake cable tension and the other adjusts the
set of brake calipers. Adjusting the brake cable tension is usually sufcient. If you are unable to
achieve sufcient braking force by tightening the cable or if one wheel brakes more effectively than
the other, you may need to adjust the brake caliper.
Adjusting the Brake Cable Tension
1. Loosen the screw (1) that locks the brake cable mount using a 3/16” Allen wrench.
2. Adjust the tension in the cables by turning the brake adjustment screw (2) that protrudes from
the bottom of the brake cable mount using a 3/16” Allen wrench.
3. After adjusting the brake adjustment screw, retighten the locking screw.
4. To test the tension, squeeze the brake lever tightly, tilt the unit back about 35°, and push the unit
forward along the ground. The combined action should make the wheels skid on the ground.
5. If the wheels spin, the brakes are not adjusted correctly. If the cable is too tight, it may engage
the brakes when you are not pulling on the brake lever.

Brake Operation
1. To engage the brakes, squeeze the brake lever toward the handlebar.
2. To lock the brakes, squeeze the brake lever toward the handlebar and press the red parking brake latch
forward with your thumb.
3. To disengage the brakes, squeeze the brake lever to release the red latch.

Adjusting the Brake Calipers
The brake calipers can be adjusted using a 3/16” hex screwdriver. The brake caliper screws are
accessed between the wheel spokes on either side.
1. Adjust the brake cable mount to its highest position as described in the preceding section
(Adjusting the Brake Cable Tension).
2. Turn the brake caliper screw clockwise as far as it will go without excessive force.
3. Back both screws off one half turn in the opposite direction.
4. To test the caliper adjustment, push the unit around while not engaging the brakes. If you
feel that either brake is dragging too much, try backing out the screw another 1/8 of a turn
at a time until the unit rolls freely. Note: It is normal for the brakes to rub slightly, but they
should not drag enough to interfere with easy rolling of the unit.
5. Perform the full brake cable tension adjustment as described in the previous section.

Troubleshooting Guide
Problem Solution(s)
The lift does not respond, and does
not make any noise when the lift
switch is activated.
1. Is the power switch turned on?
2. Has the circuit breaker tripped?
3. Check the battery connections.
4. Recharge the battery.
5. Replace the battery.
The lift struggles to raise objects and
works very slowly.
1. Check for dirt or other obstruction around the lift screw.
2. Recharge the battery.
3. Replace the battery.
The lift will not rise for more than a
second, but it will lower.
1. If the red light is on, you may have exceeded the weight
limit. Try less weight.
2. Lower the lift all the way to the bottom and the red light
should go out, resetting the protection circuit.
3. Check for dirt or other foreign materials in the lift
mechanisms and for interference of the lifting attachment
with other objects. If the lift is obstructed, this may activate
the overload protection circuit. To reset the circuit, repeat
Step 2.
The unit is very difcult to roll. 1. Check that the parking brake is not engaged.
2. Lift the lifting attachment and inspect the front casters for
obstructions.
3. Inspect the brake pads and brake rotors for obstructions.
4. Adjust the brake calipers. Details on page 11.
The brakes do not work at all or work
adequately.
1. Adjust the brake cable tension. Details on page 10.
2. Adjust the brake calipers. Details on page 11.
The unit will not charge.
1. Check to make sure the charger is fully plugged into the
outlet and the charging port of the unit.
2. Check that the circuit breaker is not tripped.
