Raise the scissors table three to four feet and block it securely (see “Lift Blocking
Instructions”).

2.

Remove the spiral mechanism by disabling the security switch and then
disconnecting the top plate from the scissors table. Allow the mechanism to un-
build back into the storage canister.

3.

Install the new motor on the base plate. Install the pulleys on the motor and the
gearbox drive shafts.

4.

Position the Spiralift™ on its base plate in the scissors lift table. Make sure that
the center of the Spiralift™ and center of the nesting are aligned to ensure the
Spiralift™ is plumb properly during its travel.

5.

Level the Spiralift™.

6.

Turn the Spiralift™ manually by inserting a _” diameter bar in the holes of the
head. Move the top plate two turns up.

7.

Install the “V” belts on the motor and gearbox pulleys

8.

Connect the motor to a power source and jog the control push buttons to check the
rotation of the Spiralift™.

9.

Manually lower the platform of the scissors lift table onto the Spiralift™ top plate
making sure it is properly inserted into the nesting.

10. Raise the platform two feet.

11. Carefully inspect the extended column of the Spiralift™ to ensure that the vertical

band is properly seated in the groove of the horizontal band throughout.

12. Run the Spiralift™ through several cycles making sure that to stay at least four

inches away from the upper and lower end of the travel of the Spiralift™. If it does
not run fully plumb, level the Spiralift™ and/or move the base plate in line with the
nesting.
