7Installation
Installation
Fitting sequence
Please refer to the following pages for accompanying installation diagrams.
When positioning the lift into the vehicle:
1. Roll off ramp (wheels) must be clear of rear doors, minimum 15mm.
2. When the lift is powered “down” the bridge plate mechanism must be clear
of the rear bumper or side valence.
3. The distance between the inside of the door aperture and the outside
of the handrails should be equal both sides.
4. All manual override systems must be fully accessible.
5. The vehicle surface MUST be flat. Do not attempt to mount base plate on top of seat
tracking extruded sections. Shim base plate above tracking if necessary.
If the surface is not flat, when the lift is bolted down the base could distort to the
contours of the floor. This will have the effect of altering the position of the lifting arms,
thus twisting the lift.
THIS WILL AFFECT PRODUCT WARRANTY.
When bolting in the base:
1. PLS universal fitting plates should be used instead of washers!
2. At least two of the front bolts (closest to driver) should be located through the
vehicles chassis.

Fitting sequence
Please refer to the following pages for accompanying installation diagrams.
When positioning the lift into the vehicle:
1. Roll off ramp (wheels) must be clear of rear doors, minimum 15mm.
2. When the lift is powered “down” the bridge plate mechanism must be clear
of the rear bumper or side valence.
3. The distance between the inside of the door aperture and the outside
of the handrails should be equal both sides.
4. All manual override systems must be fully accessible.
5. The vehicle surface MUST be flat. Do not attempt to mount base plate on top of seat
tracking extruded sections. Shim base plate above tracking if necessary.
If the surface is not flat, when the lift is bolted down the base could distort to the
contours of the floor. This will have the effect of altering the position of the lifting arms,
thus twisting the lift.
THIS WILL AFFECT PRODUCT WARRANTY.
When bolting in the base:
1. PLS universal fitting plates should be used instead of washers!
2. At least two of the front bolts (closest to driver) should be located through the
vehicles chassis.
NB. WHEN FITTING EAB A “FULL” REAR BEAM MOUNTING BRACKET SHOULD
BE USED.
Adjusting lift:
1. Ensure vertical stow position is set correctly.
2. Ensure horizontal platform position is set correctly.
3. Ensure roll-off ramp end of platform lands on ground first.
4. Ensure platform is symmetrical (not twisted)
5. Ensure Platform gates are locating together correctly.
6. To correctly adjust the Platform Knuckles see Platform Gates “Synchronizing”

7.3 Platform Frame “Horizontal” Adjustment Procedure
Access™ EA & Access™ EAB
1. Undo locking nut "A" until adjustment screw "B" is free to move.
To increase the distance "C" (platform end to ground) turn the adjustment
screw "B" clockwise.
To decrease the distance "C" (platform end to ground) turn the adjustment
screw "B" anti-clockwise
2. Turn the adjustment screw "B" until the platform angle 92° is achieved.
3. The locking nut "A" MUST be re-tightened after any adjustment.
4. Lower the lift and ensure that the Roll Off Ramp Landing Roller "E"
and the Roll Off Ramp "D" are in contact with the floor.
If not repeat the above procedure until correct.
Note: If the L/H & R/H bolts are not equally adjusted/set, the platform may have a side to side
twist.
