Important!
Be sure to read the operating instructions before operating your lift!
Getting Ready
Make sure you have made all necessary measurements to assure that
your lift will fit in your shop / garage and accommodate the car you intend to lift
with it. Make sure you have enough clearance at the top, and enough width to
allow walking around. And make sure he knows what the circuit requirements are
(110 volt, single phase, 15 amp).

Fig.1
Make sure you have someone to help you. The piece of this lift is big, heavy, and
cumbersome. The lift package weighs about 900 pounds by itself. It is possible
for one people to install this lift if he has the appropriate lifting and handling
equipment, but it is definitely easier and faster if there is another people available
to help manhandle the piece into place. As with any activities involving big heavy
materials, safety must be uppermost in your mind. This lift is not difficult to install
because of its simple design, but this very design makes it extremely effective for
shop and residential garage use. With proper preparation and installation, you
will be very pleased with this lift.

Required Tools
1. Fork Lift to unload lift on delivery
2. Wrenches and socket with ratchet
3. Adjustable wrench
4. Pliers
5. Flat blade screwdriver
Installation
You will need common hand tools that most homeowners have, like a hammer,
screwdrivers and pliers, but in addition, you will need some tools that are not
common. Each installation is somewhat different, and depends on how much
room you have to work around the lift. Here is a chronological sequence of
installation steps, with the associated tools.
1 Unloading the lift
You’ll need a forklift that can handle about 2000 to 2300 pounds and operate on
a smooth surface.
2 Un-banding the lift
The steel bands which secure the lift parts to the pallets are heavy duty. You’ll
need a pair of metal shears or tin snips to cut the bands. Be very careful when
doing this because the bands will tend to fly apart when they are cut, and the
heavy lift parts may shift when freed from the bands. Stand to the side of the
bands when you cut them, and use gloves when removing the cut bands
because they have sharp edges.
3. Moving pieces
You can move the large piece to the garage with the forklift. Other smaller pieces
can be moved manually.

STEP 1--- Assemble the dolly & cable handle
Take out the pieces of the dolly from the carton. Then
assemble them to be the dolly as Fig. 2. Then mount
on the lock-release cable handle on the dolly. ( Fig.3)
Fig.3 Fig.2
STEP 2 --- Mount on the motor pump
Take out the motor pump from the carton also. Then use the bolts provided to fix
the pump on the dolly.(Fig.4)
Fig.4 Fig.5
STEP3 --- Hose connecting & filling the tank
Connect the hydraulic hose to the pump output port. (Fig. 5 )
Then fill the thank with hydraulic oil AW32# or AW46# about 6 L.

9
STEP4 --- AC power supply
Connect the motor pump with proper cable extension and a plug which fit the AC
power supply port on the wall. And please remember there must be one 30A
air-relay in the line for safety
Fig. 6
STEP5 ---Testing
Push the start button on the motor pump to drive the hydraulic oil into the
cylinders on the lift. The lift will rise up with lock latch passing the ladder.
Release the button, the motor will stop rising. Press down the lowering lever on
the pump, the lift will lower down and be lock at the height.
Push the start button 2-3 seconds to rise the frame a little. The safety latch will
leave the cave of safety ladder. Then hold tight the lock-release handle to pull up
the latch through the cable. While holding the handle, press down the lowering
lever again, the lift will lower down to ground.
Note:
If the latch does touch the ladder while
rising or does not leave the ladder after
handle is hold tight, please adjust the
position of the nut on the threaded part.
(Fig. 7)
If everything is OK, now the lift is ready
for operation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The lift is very simple to operate. The start button on the motor pump is pushed
in and held to activate the switch which turns the electric motor on. The motor
operates an internal pump that forces hydraulic oil into the lift cylinders, which
extends the pistons and raises the lift. As the lift rises, an safety latch will pass
over the steel stops (rectangular blocks on the bar inside of the middle tube),
and you will hear “clanks” as it does so. This sound is normal, and indicates
that the safety latch is passing over the stops properly. The lift is raised to the
desired height by holding the button in while it is rising, and releasing the
button when the lift has reached its desired position. To lower the lift, you need
to depress the start button again for a few seconds. The lift will “bump”
upwards a little to let the safety latch lock open. If the lock-release cable handle
is hold tight and the lowering lever is press down also, then the weight of the
vehicle will cause the lift to lower by gravity. No power is required to apply to
the motor pump in lowering, but the safety latch must be disengaged to allow
the lift to lower past the stops.
After the installation is complete, raise the lift about two feet high and then
lower it. Repeat this process two or three times, and then top off the hydraulic
oil reservoir again, if necessary. This assures that hydraulic oil is distributed
everywhere in the system that it needs to be.
NOTE: Only top off the reservoir with the lift in the “down” position. If you
fill the reservoir in the “up” position and then lower the lift, there will be too
much hydraulic oil in the system, and it will squirt out of the top of the
control unit.
RAISING A VEHICLE
Drive the vehicle onto the lift frame until it is about centered. Set the parking
brake. Move out the arms to make the rubber pad under the support position
of the vehicle frame. Depress the “up” button to raise the vehicle a little.
Check again all the arms to make sure everything is in safe. Then lift up the
vehicle to desired height.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO RAISE THE VEHICLE SO HIGH THAT IT STRIKES
THE CEILING! MAKE SURE ANTENNAS ARE REMOVED, IF NECESSARY,
AND BE AWARE OF ANYTHING THAT PROTRUDES FROM THE CEILING,
LIKE LIGHTBULBS, GARAGE DOOR OPENERS OR DOOR TRACKS.

MISCELLANEOUS
The hydraulic oil should be replaced every two years, and the inside corners of
the lift arms should be re-greased with a general-purpose axle grease every year,
or so, as it becomes obvious that it needs it.
