MD-6XP Mid-Rise Scissor Lift 24 P/N 5900108 — Rev. F — March 2020
Test the Lift
Before putting your Lift into normal operation, we recommend raising and lowering it a few times.
This will help you get a feel for how to operate the controls and help get any residual air out of the
Hydraulic System (sometimes called “bleeding” the system).
Tip Residual air in the Hydraulic System can cause the Lift to shake, move erratically, or
squeak; this is normal when you first start using the Lift. It will soon stop doing this,
as the Hydraulic System is self-bleeding.
To test your Lift:
1. Check the area around and above the Lift for obstructions; move them away if you find any.
2. Make sure the Lift is fully lowered.
3. On the Power Unit, press and hold the Up button.
The Lift rises.
4. When the Lift moves past the first Safety Lock, release Up.
The Lift stops rising.
5. Press and hold the Lowering Handle.
The Lift starts lowering.
6. When the Lift gets to the ground, release the Lowering Handle.
Wait for one minute.
7. Repeat the process, this time raising the Lift to the top Safety Lock and then lowering it back down
to the ground.
8. If the Lift is working without shaking, moving erratically, or squeaking, there is no need to repeat
the procedure.
If the Lift is shaking, moving erratically, or squeaking, repeat the procedure one more time.
If you continue to have issues, refer to Troubleshooting for assistance.
