P-9000LT/F Low-Rise Pit Lift 30 P/N 5900022 — Rev. B — Nov. 2019
Connect the Air Line
The Air Line uses air pressure to disengage the Safety Locks so you can lower the Platforms.
Important: It is the responsibility of the Lift owner/operator to provide an air supply (minimum 30
psi / 3 CFM, regulated to a maximum of 125 psi).
The Lift uses pneumatic energy. If your organization has Lockout/Tagout policies, make sure to
implement them after connecting the Air Line to the air supply.
The air supply is distributed to the Air Cylinders using ¼ inch black plastic Tubing, which is supplied
with the Lift. You need to cut the Tubing into appropriate lengths based on the distance between the
components you are connecting.
Important: The Air Line and the Return Line use the same ¼ inch, black, polyethylene Tubing. Be
sure not to confuse the two; the Air Line and the Return Line do completely different
things and
must
be kept separate from each other.
The following drawing shows how to route the Air Line from the Console to the Air Cylinders.
Drawing not to scale. Some components not shown, other components exaggerated for clarity.
To connect the Air Line:
1. Locate two Elbow Compression Fittings and connect them on the top of the Air Cylinders.
2. Locate the black plastic Tubing and one Tee Compression Fitting.
3. Cut the Tubing into appropriate lengths for your installation.
Tip BendPak recommends planning out the path of the Air Line before you start cutting
the Tubing.
4. Connect the Tubing lengths and the Tee Compression Fitting to the Compression Fittings on the
Air Cylinders.
