The Moto Lift’s intended use is to elevate any motorcycle, under 600 lbs, with a
flat horizontal frame section under the engine to perform service work in the
standing position. The Moto Lift is designed to be used in two (2) different
ways:
1. To perform any and all maintenance on a motorcycle that does not
require wheel and/or suspension removal. For example, oil changes,
filter service, and clutch service. To perform this type of maintenance,
simply use the bottom scissor assembly by itself as per the bottom
scissor assembly owner’s manual.
2. To accomplish removal of wheels and/or suspension components,
incorporate the top scissor for easy use to safely remove front and/or
rear wheels and/or both suspension units.
Moto Lift Top Scissor Instructions
• Ensure that the bottom scissor is fully compressed and the top scissor
is also fully compressed. Loosen the two (2) black side knobs on top
scissor to ensure the top lifts properly. With bottom scissor
compressed on the ground, drop the top scissor assembly on the four
(4) tube attachment points.
Note: Be sure to face the half moon cutaway on the top scissor to
the front of the lift.
• Loosen the four (4) black plastic knobs on the top scissor assembly
and secure the four (4) metal hooks to the bottom scissor assembly.
Hook each one separately and hand-tighten. Your bottom and top
scissor assemblies are now ready to use.

How to Properly Load and Raise Your Motorcycle
• Front wheel chock must be positioned backward against the half moon
section of the top scissor.
• In order to load your motorcycle, first attach the loading ramp to the
rear of the bottom scissor assembly. With the ramp attached, roll your
bike directly onto the lift, and directly over the top scissor, so that your
front wheel rolls into the front wheel chock.
Note: There is a rear step loop on the top scissor that will help your
bike easily roll over the top scissor so you can safely roll over the entire
top.
• Tie down the front of your motorcycle using standard ratchet tie downs
to the front bottom tie down hooks on the bottom scissor. Please refer
to the bottom scissor assembly owner’s manual for proper tie down
procedure.
• The Moto Lift can be operated manually or with air. To elevate the lift,
and raise the motorcycle, turn the valve control knob clockwise and
either pump lift manually or attach an air line and press the air valve.
• The lift will rise simultaneously with the top scissor and meet your
motorcycle frame rails and lift the entire chassis into the air for easy
wheel and suspension service.
• When the top scissor assembly makes contact with the bike frame,
release the front tie downs.
• When the desired elevation is reached, you must engage the
bottom scissor safety bar. Select one (1) of the five (5) settings,
align the safety bar with the safety setting and slowly open the valve
control knob counterclockwise so that the lift rests on the safety bar.
WARNING: No lift depends on the hydraulics alone to
safely hold the load. The air-over-hydraulic cylinder is
intended to raise and lower the lift. The bottom scissor
safety bar must be engaged to prevent the possibility of
accidental valve opening and the lift lowering.
• Your motorcycle must be secured to the top scissor platform to
avoid front to back and side to side tip over. Before performing any
service work involving tire, wheel, and suspension removal, you must
secure the motorcycle. Locate the four (4) cam locks and four (4) nylon
straps, with loop, on each corner of the top scissor. Find four (4)
