Autostacker™ Parking Lift 15 P/N 5900002 — Rev. D — August 2019
• Dress properly. Wear protective gear (like safety goggles, helmet, heavy gloves, suitable
working clothes, safety boots, ear protection, and so on) when installing Autostacker. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewelry; contain long hair; keep hair and clothing away from moving parts.
⚠ WARNING
Always
wear appropriate protective gear when working on the Autostacker.
Important: Your Autostacker Lift is supplied with installation instructions and concrete fasteners
that meet the criteria set by the current American National Standard “Automotive
Lifts – Safety Requirements for Construction, Testing, and Validation” ANSI/ALI
ALCTV. Lift buyers are responsible for any special regional, structural, or seismic
anchoring requirements specified by any other agencies or codes, such as the
Uniform Building Code or International Building Code.
Create a Floor Plan
You need to plan out, in advance, where the Autostacker is going to go. Be sure to work with the
Autostacker owner on this:
• Access. The Autostacker is a Parking Lift, so be sure you can drive Vehicles onto it.
• Side clearance. Consider whether or not you want enough room on the sides for people to walk
around the Autostacker.
• Front clearance. Vehicles parked on the Autostacker Platform may extend over the front. If the
Vehicle you want to place on the Platform is longer than average (a light truck or a Cadillac, for
example), make sure you have enough room between the Autostacker and any obstacles (such as
a wall).
• Rear clearance. You are not required to park the Vehicle under the Autostacker all the way
underneath the Platform. Depending on the Vehicle, it may be easier to get in to and out of the
Vehicle if you only go partway under the Platform, as shown below. If this is a consideration, make
sure to allow adequate room at the rear of the Autostacker (the drive-up end) for you to park the
Vehicle and for the garage door to close.
This image shows an Autostacker using some of the space at the rear (by the garage door) for the
Vehicle underneath the Platform to be only partway in.
