PRE-INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Before proceeding with installation, read the installation manual and insure all instructions are fully
understood and all component parts listed on page 3 are accounted for.
Identify bay center line near the front and mark the floor. Also mark center of the bay entrance.
Connect these two points with a chalk line "A". Refer to diagram on the next page for minimum
clearance from bay entrance door and draw a second chalk line "C" at 90° to the centerline.
Measure 195.5’’ from line “C” and mark front baseplate line “B”. Make sure “B” is perpendicular to
“A”. Refer to diagram and mark line “D” and “E”. Line “B”, “C”, “D” and “E” are baseplate outlines.
These locations will be used to initially position each column, however,
the 4 most
critical measurements will be inside column to inside column measurements confirmed
later in the installation process.
Confirm that the column baseplate locations you have marked are a minimum distance of 6 inches
from any floor seam. Do not install if floor has cracks or deterioration that could affect lift stability.
The shop/lift owner is responsible for confirming there are no obstructions in the installation area
like floor drains, under floor piping or electrical conduit that could be damaged or prevent safe lift
installation and secure lift anchoring. Check ceiling for beams or heating ducts and walls for
protruding structures, etc.
(
overhead clearance must be the height of both vehicles added together
plus 8’
’)
. Insure that the lift can be safely installed in the position you have marked out on the bay
floor.
