Autoquip DOUBLE PANTOGRAPH LIFT - Manual (Page 22)

WARNING !
Before installing the lift, read & follow the recommended safety practices
in the Safety Practices section. Failure to follow these safety practices
could result in death or serious injury
FLOOR INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the installation area is clean before starting. Check the mounting
surface of the floor with a level or straight edge. If the floor is not level, add
shims or grout under the lift base frame along the entire perimeter of the base to
achieve a level and flat base installation. A level base will ensure proper wheel
tracking and smooth lift operation.
2. If the permanent electrical work is not complete, some means of temporary lines
with an on-off device for the power supply should be set up for testing purposes.
3. Place the lift in the installation area and level the base frame per note #1.
NOTICE !
When moving the lift, do not attempt to pick it up by the
platform, the platform is hinged and could be damaged. Pick up
the lift from under the base frame ONLY using a strap sling.
4. Make temporary electrical connections and permanent hydraulic connections.
Raise the lift approximately one foot using the “UP” button. Then lower the lift
back to fully collapse, holding the “DOWN” button for approximately 60 seconds.
Repeat this process five to seven times to bleed any air out of the hydraulic
system.
DANGER !
HIGH VOLTAGE!! – Disconnect and/or lock out the electrical supply
to the power unit per OSHA regulations prior to any installation or
maintenance being performed.
5. Raise the lift to the top of its travel and make positioning adjustments. Check for
the proper height. If needed, shim to the desired height. DO NOT “spot” shim.
Shim the full length of the base frame. This will prevent the frame from sagging
under an exceptionally heavy load.
