The pipe straps will be used later to hold in place the Hydraulic Lines that run from the Power Unit
to the Hydraulic Cylinder.
3. Align the holes on the top of the Offside Post with the holes on the bottom of the Top Trough, then
connect the two using the supplied 10 mm hex bolts, washers, and nuts.
The Offside Post connection to the Top Trough uses washers,
not
pipe straps.
Installing the Power Unit
This section describes how to install the Power Unit for your lift.
Important: Do not connect the Power Unit to the hydraulic system or to the power source at this
point.
The standard Power Unit for your lift is 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1 phase. Note that the motor is
not
thermally protected.
The Power Unit
must
be installed on the Powerside Post.
⚠ DANGER All wiring
must
be performed by a licensed, certified electrician. Do not perform
any maintenance or installation on the lift without first making sure that main
electrical power has been disconnected from the lift and cannot be re-energized
until all procedures are complete.
Important electrical information:
• Improper electrical installation can damage the Power Unit motor; this damage is not covered under
warranty.
• Use a separate circuit breaker for each Power Unit.
• Protect each circuit with a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker. For a 220 VAC, 1 phase circuit, use a
25 amp or greater fuse.
The Power Unit’s hydraulic fluid reservoir must be filled with Hydraulic Fluid or automatic transmission
fluid before you begin operation.
When you receive it, the oil reservoir is empty.
The Power
Unit will not work correctly until it is filled with approved fluids.
Approved fluids are any general purpose ISO-32, ISO-46, or ISO-68 hydraulic oil or approved
automatic transmission fluids such as Dexron III, Dexron VI, Mercon V, Mercon LV, or any synthetic
multi-vehicle automatic transmission fluid.
⚠ WARNING Do not run your Power Unit without hydraulic fluid; you will damage it. Keep the
Power Unit dry; damage to the Power Unit caused by water, detergents, acid, and
other liquids is
not
covered by the warranty.
To install the Power Unit:
1. If the Lift Head (also called the carriage) is blocking access on the inside of the Powerside Post to
the holes used to attach the Power Unit, raise it out of the way.
⚠ WARNING BendPak recommends using a lifting device to raise the Lift Head; a forklift, for
example. Lift Heads are heavy. If you attempt to raise a Lift Head yourself, you
could injure yourself and potentially damage the product.
2. Find the two supplied M10 x 1.25 x 40 mm hex bolts and the two white plastic spacers.
3. Move the Power Unit into place: the holes in the back of the Power Unit (in the silver strip on the
Power Unit) must line up with the holes in the Powerside Post.
