Autoquip COMPACT LIFT - Manual (Page 14)

DANGER!
Do not make modifications to the lift without authorization
from the manufacturer. Autoquip cannot foresee and is
not responsible for injury or damage which results from
the unauthorized modifications or misuse of the lift.
UNBALANCED LOADING
The stabilization provided is basically for balanced loads. If special attachments extend
beyond the length and/or width dimensions of the platform, the end and/or side load
capacity is reduced 2% for each one-inch extension from the center. If the load is
rolling onto the platform (in any but the fully-lowered position) the end and/or side load
capacity is reduced by a 50% impact factor (i.e., divide the rated end/side load by 1.50
to establish an available “axle” load).
PUMP PRESSURE
This lift incorporates a positive displacement pump machined to a high degree of
accuracy and specially adapted to requirements of higher-pressure ranges over that of
a standard pump. Therefore, standard factory models of the same manufacture cannot
replace it.
The pump can operate efficiently at intermittent pressures up to 2000 PSI and
continuous duty to 1500 PSI. The safety relief valve in the pump assembly is factory-
set to stay within the parameters of the pump and lift requirements.
LIFT DUTY
Autoquip standard lift designs as described in the specifications typically include
intermittent duty motors and are designed to “cycle” (one complete “up” and one
complete “down” lift operation) no more frequently than every two minutes – or
approximately 60,000 times (cycles) per year. This is considered “normal” duty.
It is the responsibility of the user to notify Autoquip whenever a specific application is
likely to demand “above normal” duty from the lift - in excess of 60,000 cycles per year.
Above normal duty typically requires supplemental design features to enhance the
serviceable life of the lift & to avoid loss of warranty.
