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: Rotary’s Mobile Lift System units are shipped
in the vertical position.
2. After unloading, remove and discard protective
wrapping.
NOTE: Unit is shipped without batteries and
without power unit fluid. Installation of both
batteries and 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
ISOVG32 hydraulic oil. Tank capacity is approximately 11-
1/2 quarts (11 liters). Fill until fluid is just barely visible on
dipstick.
5. Install two batteries in location shown, Fig. 1. Through
our research Rotary recommends Exide®brand battery
part number NG-27 or DEKA®brand battery part
number DC31DT. Different batteries meeting the below
specifications may be used but performance can vary.
Recommended Battery Specifications:
12V DC Sealed Deep Cycle Battery
Size 31 Frame Group
105 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 and M10 socket head bolts clockwise on wheel jack
and front of superstructure to adjust unloaded column
ground clearance, Fig. 1. Ground clearance is determined
by how far the bolts are 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.

Battery Charging
1. Battery chargers can be plugged in nearly continuously
or as needed. Life of the battery can be prolonged if the
batteries are charged regularly (for example, after every
use), and not allowed to be fully discharged.
IMPORTANT Do Not operate lift while batteries are
charging.
2. The supplied battery charger is not intended for use with
a gelled-electrolyte type battery. Please see the supplied
battery charger manual for further details on the use of the
battery charger.
3. When batteries are not being charged, the front panel
indicator can be used to determine the battery charge level.
On the front panel, a yellow light indicates that the battery
is partly discharged and should be recharged. A red light
indicates that you are near the end of the battery capacity
and may not have enough energy left to complete a fully
loaded lift cycle; the batteries must be recharged. When
the batteries are being charged, the lights on the battery
charger will indicate whether the battery is being charged
(yellow light) or has reached full charge (green light).
4. Charge time will vary depending on the amount of energy
that was discharged. A fully discharged battery will need
to be recharged overnight to be fully restored. However,
if a single lift is required, a short charge time (such as 15
minutes) should restore the batteries enough for a fully
loaded lift cycle.
5. Battery performance will vary depending on the brand
of battery selected, the battery specifications, how well the
batteries are maintained, and the age of the batteries.

Purpose
This procedure establishes the minimum requirements for the lockout of energy that could cause injury to personnel by the
operation of lifts in need of repair or being serviced. All employees shall comply with this procedure.
Responsibility
The responsibility for assuring that this procedure is followed is binding upon all employees and service personnel from
outside service companies (i.e., Authorized Rotary Installers, contactors, etc.). All employees shall be instructed in the
safety significance of the lockout procedure by the facility owner/manager. Each new or transferred employee along with
visiting outside service personnel shall be instructed by the owner/manager (or assigned designee) in the purpose and use
of the lockout procedure.
Preparation
Employees authorized to perform lockout shall ensure that the appropriate energy isolating device (i.e., circuit breaker,
fuse, disconnect, etc.) is identified for the lift being locked out. Other such devices for other equipment may be located
in close proximity of the appropriate energy isolating device. If the identity of the device is in question, see the shop
supervisor for resolution. Assure that proper authorization is received prior to performing the lockout procedure.
Sequence of Lockout Procedure
1) Notify all affected employees that a lockout is being performed and the reason for it.
2) Unload the subject lift. Shut it down and assure the disconnect switch is “OFF” if one is provided on the lift.
3) The authorized lockout person operates the main energy isolation device removing power to the subject lift.
• If this is a lockable device, the authorized lockout person places the assigned padlock on the device to
prevent its unintentional reactivation. An appropriate tag is applied stating the person’s name, at least 3”
x 6” in size, an easily noticeably color, and states not to operate device or remove tag.
• If this device is a non-lockable circuit breaker or fuse, replace with a “dummy” device and tag it
appropriately as mentioned above.
4) Attempt to operate lift to assure the lockout is working. Be sure to return any switches to the “OFF” position.
5) The equipment is now locked out and ready for the required maintenance or service.
Restoring Equipment to Service
1) Assure the work on the lift is complete and the area is clear of tools, vehicles, and personnel.
2) At this point, the authorized person can remove the lock (or dummy circuit breaker or fuse) & tag and activate
the energy isolating device so that the lift may again be placed into operation.
Rules for Using Lockout Procedure
Use the Lockout Procedure whenever the lift is being repaired or serviced, waiting for repair when current operation could
cause possible injury to personnel, or for any other situation when unintentional operation could injure personnel. No
attempt shall be made to operate the lift when the energy isolating device is locked out.
LIFT LOCKOUT/TAGOUT PROCEDURE
Lift is not intended for outdoor use and has an operating ambient temperature range of 41º-104ºF (5º-40ºC).
