Air operating system: connect the air inlet fitting(39) into the air supply hose lock fitting and
fully press the release foot pedal(31), then turn on the air valve(37) letting the pump work for
30 seconds to eliminate any air in the hydraulic system.
4.4 Test the lift, unladen, by raising it to full height and then lowering it. Depress release foot
pedal(31) slowly to control the rate of descent.
5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions and
warnings before use. WARNING! Do not attempt to overload the lift.
5.1 Position the load and the lift in a suitable work area as described in 1.8
5.2 Fully lower the lift, use the pulling handle(21) to move the lift and put it into position under
the load.
5.3 Turn the adjustable screws (35) down to raise the castors off the ground and thus to prevent
the lift from moving during use.
5.4 Connect the air inlet fitting (39) into the air supply hose lock fitting, then turn on the air
valve(37), or pump the lift foot pedal(34) when air source is not available, to let the lifting
saddle(13) come into contact with the load, then turn off the air valve or stop pumping and
use appropriate straps to secure the load to the lift.
5.5 Turn on the air valve(37) or pump the lift foot pedal to raise the load to desired height, turn
off the air valve or stop pumping and immediately engage the safety bar in corresponding
position so that the lift cannot be inadvertently lowered.
NOTE: Once an ATV or motorcycle is lifted, do not move the lift around. The wheels on the lift
are designed to move the lift without a load.
NOTE: This is a temporary lifting device only. It is not designed to support loads for extended
periods of time.
5.6 When work is done, remove all tools from under the lift before lowering. Disengage the
safety bar, then SLOWLY press the release foot pedal(31) to GENTLY lower the lift.
NOTE: Lower the ATY or motorcycles slowly in a controlled fashion. Never allow the ATV or
motorcycle to drop quickly.
5.7 When the lift is clear of the load, untie the ATV of motorcycle, turn the adjustable screw (35)
up until they are clear of the ground and the castors(1) contact the ground. Roll the lift away.
6. MAINTENANCE
6.1 When not in use, the lift must be stored in the lowest position in a dry location to minimize
ram and piston corrosion.
6.2 Keep the lift clean and wipe off any oil or grease. Lubricate all moving parts.
6.3 Periodically check the ram and piston for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a
clean oiled cloth.
6.4 Before each use check all parts. If any part of the lift is damaged or suspect, remove the lift
from service and take necessary action to repair.
6.5 Purge the hydraulic system to eliminate any air in the system if lift efficiency drops as
described in section 4.3.
6.6 Check the hydraulic oil level. If it is not adequate, remove the rubber plug on the pump and
add hydraulic oil as necessary. DO NOT use brake fluid or any other improper fluid. Only a
good quality hydraulic jack oil can be used.
