Inspection upon receipt of the lift
1. Always inspect the lift for freight damage and make note of any damage on the bill of lading.
2. In case of freight damage, call the truck line immediately and report the damage as a freight claim.
Final Set-Up
This lift is more than 90% factory pre-assembled. The following steps will guide you through the final
set-up. The packaged lift weighs approximately 700 lbs. While disassembling the sub components
will weigh less than that, two or more people will be needed to unload and move the lift around during
initial installation/unpacking of the lift.
1. Unpack the lift from the shipping skid. With the lift table up side down, connect the air hose to the
air cylinder.
2. After tightening the hose to the cylinder, flip the lift over with the table surface up.
3. Connect the other end of the air hose to the foot-operated valve. Put a small amount of air tool oil
in the inlet side of the valve. Then connect the foot-operated valve to 100 PSI air supply. DO NOT
USE AIR SUPPLY WITH PRESSURE MORE THAN 100 PSI.
4. Release the safety bar by pushing the handle down. Operate the foot valve by stepping on the
footpad forward to raise the lift. The safety bar should engage the ladder automatically while lift is
rising.
5. Step on the footpad again to set the pad in middle position to stop the lift when it reaches
the desired height. ALWAYS LOWER LIFT IN THE NEAREST LOCKED POSITION BEFORE
BEGINNING WORK. NEVER USE THE LIFT UNLESS YOU ARE IN A LOCKED POSITION.
6. Lubricating the joints again before use will ensure a better performance of the lift. While the lift is
fully raised, lubricate the top of the cylinder with oil.
