WARNING: Prior to completely raising the vehicle, raise the vehicle 6” off the ground
and check the adapter pads for solid contact by performing the “BUMPER TEST”. Walk
around the back of the vehicle and push up and down on the bumper. The vehicle will rock,
but should not at any time lose contact with the pads. If the vehicle is bouncing off the
pads or feels at all unstable, you should lower it back to the ground and reposition the pads
to balance the load. Repeat this process until the vehicle is completely stable.
WARNING: Use this lift only in well ventilated areas. Carbon monoxide exhausted
from running vehicle engines is a colorless, odorless fume that, if inhaled, can cause
serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before using
this product. Operation of electrical equipment in close proximity to a heart pacemaker
could cause interference or failure of the pacemaker.
WARNING: This product contains or produces a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects (or other reproductive harm). (California Health
& Safety Code 25249.5 et seq.)
• Maintain a safe working environment. The work area should be clean, dry, clutter free, and
suciently lit.
• Vehicle doors should be closed during the raising and lowering cycles.
• Closely watch the vehicle and lift during the raising and lowering cycles.
• Do not operate the lift in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power equipment can create sparks which may ignite ammables.
• Keep hands, tools, and other extremities from under carriage and moving parts.
• Never operate this lift with someone on it.
• Do not allow anyone on the lift or inside a raised vehicle.
• Keep children and bystanders away from work area. Do not let children operate or play

• Do not replace or override the safety devices.
WARNING: Risks the personnel could encounter, due to an improper use of the lift, are
described in this section.
CRUSHING RISK
During lowering of runways and vehicles, personnel must not be within the area
covered by the lowering trajectory. The operator must be sure no one is in danger before
operating the lift. Stay clear of the lift when lowering or raising vehicles. Keep hands and
feet away from moving parts and especially points that could pinch. Keep your feet clear of
the lift when raising and lowering vehicles.
RISK OF THE VEHICLE FALLING FROM THE LIFT
Risk of the vehicle falling from the lift is increased: when the vehicle is improperly placed on
the platforms, when the vehicle’s weight or physical dimensions exceed the rated capacity
of the lift, or when there is excessive movement of the vehicle while on the lift. If vehicle
appears to begin falling, exit the area as quickly as possible to avoid injury. Always position
vehicle with the center of gravity midway between the adapters. Adding or removing
parts of a vehicle on the lift will alter the weight displacement on the lift. Therefore, use of
auxilary safety stands in the front and back of the vehicle is recommended. Never override
the manufactured lift controls. Always use height adapter pads when possible to ensure
proper contact. Only authorized personnel should be allowed in the lift area and the lift
should only be operated by authorized and trianed personnel. Adding or removing parts of a
vehicle on the lift will alter the weight displacement on the lift.
BUMPING RISK
When the lift is stopped at relatively low working height, the risk of bumping against
projecting parts increases. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid bumping your
head or body on the lift or the vehicle.

The following 2 types of lifts are 2-Column hydraulic, leaf chain driven.
The model numbers covered in this manual are designated below:
HD2P-9000AC: 2-Column Overhead Beam Lift type, 9000 lbs. Capacity, Asymmetric
Swing Arm set up.
HD2P-9000AF: 2-Column Lift, Floor plate type, 9000 lbs. Capacity, Asymmetric Swing
Arm set up.
NOTE: Symmetric arm kit is also available for the HD2P-9000AC and HD2P-9000AF.
This lift is a 9000 lb. capacity, 2-Post Lift. The safety latch system is very similar to an
extension ladder. The safety latch is in contact with the rack as the lift ascends and drops
into place as the lift rises. Safety latch engages in rack in 3” increments at about 16” from
the ground. The latch must be manually disengaged for the lift to descend. The latch is
released by pulling the release cable raising the latch up off the latch rack. Once the raise
button is pressed, the latch will automatically re-engage after approximately 3”of travel.
Heavy bearings and heavy-duty leaf chains are used throughout the lift. The work is done
with the heavy-duty chain connected to a 2-1/2” cylinder, driven by a hydraulic pump
capable of providing 3,000 psi.
Please read the Safety Procedures and operation instructions in this manual before
operating the lift. Proper installation is very important. To minimize the chance of making
an error in installation, please read this manual thoroughly before beginning installation.
Check with building owner and/or architect’s building plans when applicable. The lift should
be located on a level oor with 4” 3000 psi concrete suciently cured, for at least 30 days.
This is a vehicle lift installation / operation manual and no attempt is made or implied
herein to instruct the user in lifting methods particular to an individual application. Rather,
the contents of this manual are intended as a basis for operation and maintenance of the

WARNING: SPECIFICATIONS OF CONCRETE MUST BE ADHERED TO. FAILURE
TO DO SO COULD CAUSE LIFT FAILURE RESULTING IN PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH. THE FLOOR SHOULD BE A REINFORCED CONCRETE SLAB NOT
LESS THAN 4” (101.6MM) THICK WITH THE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF THE
CONCRETE NO LESS THAN 3,000 PSI (20.68MPA).
DANGER: FOR CORRECT INSTALLATION OF THE LIFT, THE FLOOR MUST
BE FLAT AND LEVEL. CHECK WITH STRAIGHT EDGE AND LEVEL. IF A FLOOR IS
OF QUESTIONABLE SLOPE, CONSIDER A SURVEY OF THE SITE AND/OR THE
POSSIBILITY OF POURING A NEW LEVEL CONCRETE SLAB.
5.1 SELECTING THE SITE AREA
5.2 FLOOR REQUIREMENTS
1. Make sure that adequate space and height is available.
2. Check for ceiling clearance (lifting height plus vehicle height).
3. Check for clearance in front and rear of vehicle on lift.
4. Check for overhead garage door clearance.
Do not use the lift on any asphalt surface. Make sure the lift is used on a dry, oil/grease
free, at level CONCRETE surface capable of supporting the weight of the lift, the vehicle
being lifted, and any additional tools and equipment. The concrete oor surface should
have a minimum thickness of 4”. The concrete must have a minimum strength of 3,000 PSI,
and should be aged at least 30 days prior to use. Do not use the lift on concrete expansion
seams or on cracked, defective concrete.
IMPORTANT: NEW CONCRETE MUST BE ADEQUATELY CURED AT LEAST 30
DAYS MINIMUM. NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES WILL BE ACCEPTED SHOULD
YOU INSTALL THE LIFT ON AN UNSUITABLE FLOOR.

7
5.3 IMPORTANT CONCRETE AND ANCHORING INFORMATION
1. Concrete shall have compression strength of at least 3,000 PSI and a minimum
thickness of 4”. Measure the length of the supplied anchor bolts in order to achieve a
minimum anchor embedment of 3-1/4”. If the top of the anchor exceeds 2” above the
oor grade, you DO NOT have enough embedment.
2. Before drilling 3/4” dia. Holes in concrete oor using holes in column base plate as
guide, make sure the hole distance from the edge is not less than 6”. Hole to hole
spacing should not be less than 6 1/2 in any direction. Concrete thickness should be a
minimum of 4”
3. DANGER: DO NOT Install on asphalt or other similar unstable surface. Columns are
supported only by anchoring in oor.
4. Shim each column base until each column is plumb. If one column has to be elevated
to match the plane of the other column, full size base shim plates should be used
(Reference Shim Kit). Torque anchors to 85 ft-lbs. Shim thickness MUST NOT exceed
1/2”. Adjust the column extensions plumb.
5. If anchors do not tighten to 85 ft-lbs. installation torque, replace concrete under each
column base with a 4’ x 4’ x 6” thick 3,000 PSI minimum concrete pad keyed under and
ush with the top of existing oor. Let concrete cure at least 30 days before installing
lifts and anchors.

8
5.4 ANCHORING TIP SHEET
1. Use a concrete hammer drill with a carbide tip, solid drill bit the same diameter as the
anchor, 3/4”. (.775 to .787 inches diameter). Do not use excessively worn bits or bits
which have been incorrectly sharpened.
2. Keep the drill perpendicular to the concrete while drilling.
3. Let the drill do the work. Do not apply excessive pressure. Lift the drill up and down
occasionally to remove residue to reduce binding.
4. Drill the hole for anchor bolt completely through the concrete. If an error is made during
the installation of these anchors, this will allow for the anchor bolt to be driven down
into the ground, so that a new anchor may be installed in place (g.1).
5. Be sure to clean all dust from hole. (g. 2).
6. Place a at washer and hex nut over threaded end of anchor, leaving approximately 1/4
inch of thread exposed above the nut (g.3). Carefully tap anchor into the concrete until
nut and at washer are against base plate. Be sure to only tap the top of the anchor and
not the nut. This could cause damage to the threads of the anchor.
7. Tighten the nut (g. 4) to 85 ft-lbs of torque (typically this should only be two to three
full turns).
DO NOT USE AN IMPACT WRENCH TO TIGHTEN ANCHORS!

6-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1) After unloading the lift, place it near the intended installation location.
2) Remove the shipping bands and packing materials from the unit.
3) Remove the packing brackets and bolts holding the two columns together (do not
discard bolts, they are used in the assembly of the lift)
4) Once the lift location is decided, chalk the center line in the bay and ensure that the
proper lift placement is observed from walls and obstacles. Also check the ceiling
height for clearance in this location. NOTE: the power unit column can be located on
either side.
5) Assemble the uprights to the columns on model HD2P-9000AC. The HD2P-9000AF has
columns only-no uprights or overhead beam. Raise the columns to a vertical position.
(See Fig. 6, page 26).
6) Position the columns facing each other 134 1/2” outside base plates. NOTE: The power
unit column is referred to as the main side column and the non power unit column is
referred to as the offside column.
7) Using a 3/4” concrete drill bit, drill the anchor holes in the main side column, installing
anchors as you go (see Fig. 11, page 31). Use a block of wood or rubber mallet to drive
anchor bolts in.
8) Using a level , check column for side-to-side plumb and front-to-back plumb. Use 3/4”
washers or shim stock, placing shims as close as possible to the hole locations. This
will prevent bending the column bottom plates. Tighten 3/4” anchor bolts to 85-lbs.
NOTE: DO NOT USE IMPACT WRENCH�
9) Using a tape measure, measure diagonally from the face of one column to the opposite
face of the other, to ensure that the columns are square (see Fig. 11, page 31). After
conrming the dimensions, install the overhead beam for AC model (see Fig 6, page 26)
to the top of the columns BEFORE drilling the anchors for the offside column to ensure
the column is plumb. For AF model, repeat steps 7 & 8 for offside column installation.
10) After overhead beam is assembled for AC model drill and anchor offside column as
described in steps 7 & 8.
11) Installing the equalizing cables: refer to Fig 7 (pg. 27) or Fig 8 (pg. 28) for general cable
arrangement for both HD2P-9000AC and HD2P-9000AF. Set carriages on the rst safety
latch engagement. Be sure each carriage is at the same height by measuring from the
top of the base to the bottom of the carriage (double check the latches before working
under the carriages). This dimension should be within 1/4”. Run rst cable Fig 7 for
AC model or Fig 8 for AF model. Tighten nut on one cable stud so that the end of stud
passes the nylon on the nut. Pull the other end of cable and run nut on it. Tighten both
nuts. Repeat above for second cable.
PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUCTION BEFORE STARTING TO OPERATE THE LIFT.

10
12) Make sure the pin on the bottom of the cylinder is seated into the hole in the center
of the base plate. Pull the pre-attached leaf chain in both sides up and over the chain
pulley on top of the cylinders. Refer to Fig 9 for HD2P-9000AF Floor Plate Type and Fig.
10 for HD2P-9000AC overhead type.
13) Connecting the hydraulic hoses, as shown on Fig 9 for HD2P-9000AF Floor Plate Type
and Fig 10 for HD2P-9000AC Clear Floor Type.
14) Mount the power unit on lift as shown in Fig. 9 & Fig 10.
15) For the HD2P-9000AF model, mount the oor plate (13.1) as shown in Fig 14.
16) Install the swing arms on the carriages using the included 1 1/2” diameter pins. Check
for proper engagement of the arm lock- the rack on the lock should fully engage the
gear on the arm. Grease these pins to prevent excessive wear.
17) Adjust the carriage cables tension. Adjust each cable to approximately 1/2” side-
to-side play. Check the latch releases to insure the carriage is still sitting on the
appropriate latch.
18) Remove the ll cap from the power unit and ll the oil tank reservoir. To ll the oiltank
resevoir, the lift must be completely lowered. FIll the oil tank with a premium quality
ISO-32, AW-32 or AW-46 Hydraulic Oil.
19) Make the Electrical hookup to the power unit.(220V Single Phase). It is recommended
that a 220 Volt, 30 Amp twist lock plug be installed in the power line just ahead of the
power unit. Size wire for 30-amp circuit.
WARNING: The wiring must comply with local code. Have a certied licensed
electrician make the electrical hook-up to the power unit. Protect each circuit with time
delay fuse or circuit breaker 208v.230v single Phase. 60Hz 30 Amp.

11
20) Install the shut-off mechanism for the 9000AC model. Screw two long screws into
holes on up-rights, and tighten them with two M6 nuts each. Run shut-off cable through
hole at long screw end on offside up-right and x it with cable clip, across the power
side long screw hole, to the microswitch on top of power unit, then x the cable end
with cable clip also. Make it as tight at you can without tripping the cutoff microswitch.
21) Grease the inside corners of the columns.
22) Do not place any vehicle on the lift at this time. Read the operation instructions(pg 12-
14) and cycle the lift up and down several times to ensure safety latches click together
and all air is removed from the system. Ensure all hydraulic ttings are tight and not
leaking. To lower the lift, the safety latch releases must be manually released. Latches
will automatically reset once the lift ascends approximately 17” from base. If latches
click out of sync, tighten the cable on the one that clicks rst.
WARNING: DO NOT PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE OR INSTALLATION
OF ANY COMPONENTS WITHOUT FIRST ENSURING THAT ELECTRICAL POWER
HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED AT THE SOURCE OR PANEL AND CANNOT BE
REENERGIZED UNTIL ALL MAINTENANCE AND/OR INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
ARE COMPLETED.
DANGER: DO NOT RUN POWER UNIT WITHOUT FLUID. DAMAGE TO PUMP
CAN OCCUR. THE POWER UNIT MUST BE KEPT DRY. DAMAGE TO POWER UNIT
CAUSED BY WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS SUCH AS DETERGENTS, ACID ETC., IS
NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

1. Before driving a vehicle onto the lift make sure the lift is fully lowered. Before driving a
vehicle onto the lift, position the lift arms outward. Do not hit or run over the lifting arms,
as this could damage the vehicle and/or lift. Make sure the lift is fully lowered before
moving the vehicle over the lift. NOTE: It is recommended to swing both arms outward
pointing toward the front of the lift prior to loading a vehicle into the 9000AC.
2. Drive the vehicle over the lift while keeping the vehicle parallel with the lift and aligning
the center of gravity of the vehicle with the center of the lift. NOTE: The “Center of
Gravity” (COG) of the vehicle is the balance point at which there is equal weight in front
of and behind the COG, and equal weight on both sides of the COG. The COG is not
necessarily the dimensional center of the vehicle, but is often slightly toward the engine
from the dimensional center of the vehicle.
3. Turn off the vehicle’s engine and engage the parking brake of the vehicle.
4. Read the vehicles owner’s manual to identify the recommended vehicle lifting points.
5. Prepare the work area according to this manual. Move the lifting arms inward, and

8-MAINTENANCE
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE LIFT.
IMPORTANT: THE MAINTENANCE INTERVALS INDICATED BELOW APPLY TO
AVERAGE WORKSHOP USE. THE LIFT SHOULD BE INSPECTED MORE FREQUENTLY
FOR SEVERE USE APPLICATIONS.
It is important to keep the lift clean, dry, lubricated and well maintained by establishing a
periodic preventive maintenance program to ensure trouble-free operation and long service life.
1. Check safety locking mechanism is functioning correctly.
2. Check safety lock audibly and visually while in operation.
3. Check safety latches for free movement and full engagement with rack.
4. Inspect the condition of rubber lifting pads and replace as necessary if worn or torn.
5. Check hydraulic connections, and hoses for leakage.
6. Check chain connections - Bends, cracks - and looseness.
7. Check for frayed cables in both raised and lowered positions.
8. Check snap rings at all rollers and sheaves.
9. Check bolts, nuts, and screws and tighten.
10. Check wiring & switches for damage.
11. Keep base plate free of dirt, grease or any other corrosive substances.
12. Check oor for stress cracks near anchor bolts.
13. Check swing arm restraints.
1. Check anchor bolts torque to 85 ft-lbs for the 3/4’’ anchor bolts.
NOTE: DO NOT USE IMPACT WRENCH�
2. Check oor for stress cracks near anchor bolts.
3. Check hydraulic oil level.
4. Check and tighten bolts and nuts, and screws.
5. Check cylinder pulley assembly for free movement or excessive wear on cylinder yoke or
pulley pin.
6. Check cable pulley for free movement and excessive wear.

8.1.3 MONTHLY
8.1.4 BIMONTHLY
8.1.5 YEARLY
8.1.6 EVERY OTHER YEAR
1. Check safety mechanism operation.
2. Check condition of shafts, shaft locks and bushings.
3. Check overall cleanliness.
1. Check condition of extensions and lubricate.
2. Check oil leaks from cylinders.
3. Check oil leaks at pipe joints.
Service and safety inspection on the lift must be performed by a competent person.
This inspection must be recorded. If the 12 month service and safety inspection is not
performed, the warranty is null and void.
1. Lubricate chain.
2. Grease the inside corners of the columns.
3. Change the hydraulic uid. A good maintenance program makes it mandatory to keep
hydraulic uid clean. Operating temperature, type of service, contamination levels,
ltration, and chemical composition of uid should be considered. If operating in harsh
or dusty conditions, a shorter interval may be required.
THE FOLLOWING ITEMS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A TRAINED
MAINTENANCE EXPERT.
• Replace hydraulic hoses.
• Replace chains and rollers.
• Replace cables and sheaves.
• Replace or rebuild air and hydraulic cylinders as required.
• Replace or rebuild pumps / motors as required.
• Check hydraulic and air cylinder rod and rod end (threads) for deformation or damage.
• Check cylinder mount for looseness and damage.
Relocating or changing components may cause problems. Each component in the system
must be compatible; an undersized or restricted line will cause a drop in pressure. All valve,
pump, and hose connections should be sealed and/or capped until just prior to use. Air
hoses can be used to clean ttings and other components. However, the air supply must be
ltered and dry to prevent contamination. Most important - CLEANLINESS - contamination
is the most frequent cause of malfunction or failure of hydraulic equipment.
Hydraulic oil should be replaced.

8.2 MAINTENANCE BY OPERATOR
8.2.1 HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
8.2.2 GREASING POINTS
All moving parts have been lubricated at the factory and should be re-lubricated before the
rst use and at least once every six months to prevent damage.
1. Check the uid level with the lift fully lowered and add uid as required. Use premium
quality ISO-32, AW-32, or AW-46 hydraulic oil.
2. Visually check all hydraulic hoses and connections for tightness before each use to
ensure proper working condition.
3. Lightly oil the cylinder rods at least once every six months or when they become dry.
IMPORTANT: AFTER CLEANING WORKSHOP FLOOR OR LIFT, TO MAINTAIN
HOIST EFFICIENCY WE ADVISE TO LUBRICATE LIFTING ARM LOCKING
MECHANISM, AND SAFETY LOCKING MECHANISM. CHECK SAFETY LOCKING
MECHANISM IS FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY.
