Set-Up Instructions
Follow these instructions to ensure a satisfactory set-up
and operation of the lift.
• Afterset-upandinspectionofthelift,pleasereturnthis
booklet to the literature package and give to lift owner/
operator. Literature package should be kept attached to
controls for easy access.
1. Unloading: Mobile Lift System units are shipped in the
vertical position.
2. After unloading, remove and discard protective
wrapping.
NOTE: Unit is shipped without power unit
fluid. Installation of fluid MUST be completed
prior to lift operation. Failure to do so will result
in air entering the system. The unit will then have to
be bled.
3. To move the column, remove protective banding and
wheel clamps from wheel jack. The forklift brackets can be
removed from the side of the column if desired.
4. Open power unit cover by removing the 3 M8 BHCS
(Button Head Cap Screw). Fill power unit tank with
ISOAW32 hydraulic oil. Tank capacity is approximately 11.5
liters. Short filling may cause vapor lock to occur.
5. Connect two batteries in location shown, Fig. 1.
Different batteries meeting the below specifications may be
used but performance can vary.
Recommended Battery Specifications:
12V DC Sealed Deep Cycle Battery
Size 24 Frame Group
80 AH Capacity (At 20 AH Rate)
Stud Terminals with Stainless Steel Wing nuts
Battery wires are clearly marked/labeled inside the unit
itself.
Install tie-down straps on batteries as shown.
Close lift and re-install M8 BHCS removed earlier.
After the batteries and fluid have been added, screw M20
bolt clockwise on wheel jack to adjust unloaded column
ground clearance, Fig. 1. Ground clearance is determined
by how far the bolt is turned. When the column is loaded, it
will automatically lower to the floor.
WARNING
Permit only trained personnel to
operate lift. After reviewing these instructions,
become familiar with the lift controls by running the lift
through a few cycles before loading a vehicle on lift.
Observe and heed SAFETY and WARNING labels on
the lift.
WARNING
This motor has internal arcing or
sparking parts. To minimize the Risk of Explosion, DO
NOT expose to flammable vapors.

outdoor use or storage and has an operating ambient
temperature range of 5º-40ºC. This product is intended
for indoor use only in a dry location.
DO NOT use lift in a manner other than intended.
Included (but not limited to) examples of unapproved
uses of the lift are: lifting vehicle by only one side,
lifting different axles with a column pair (lifting on the
diagonal), and lifting non-approved items.
