CAUTION!
Over-travel of the spiral mechanism could cause permanent damage to the
mechanism. Ensure that the “UP” limit switch is operational before raising
the lift to a fully raised position.
7.
The base frame of the lift has pre-drilled holes for lagging the lift securely to the
floor. Mark the holes, drill, and install with anchors. Lifts with oversize platforms
have minimum pullout requirements of 2,000 lbs. for each anchor.
8.
Make permanent electrical connections and operate the lift through a few cycles.
9. Apply all warning labels in the correct location. See “Label Identification” section.
10. Clean up any debris from the area. A clean installation makes a good impression
and creates a much safer environment.
PIT INSTALLATION -- MODELS WITH BEVEL TOE GUARDS
DANGER!
Do not install the lift in a pit unless it has a bevel toe guard or other
approved toe protection. A shear point can exist which can cause severe
injury to the foot.
1.
Check the pit dimensions. Length and width should be 2" minimum longer and
wider than the lift platform. Depth should include _” allowance for shims or grout.
2.
Check the chase entrance into the pit. The diameter should be 3". If the
permanent electrical work is not complete, some means of temporary lines with an
on-off device for the motor should be set up for testing purposes.
3.
Lower the lift into the pit and check for proper height. The lift should be solid and
flush with the pit angle framing. 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.
