Raising a Vehicle
12. START UP: After connecting the Communication
Cables, turn the Main Power Switch located on the Master
Column to “ON”. First, the amber colored STANDBY/
TURTLE button will illuminate in STANDBY mode then
shortly after (approximately six seconds) the green
colored READY/RABBIT button will illuminate signaling
the user that all columns are initalized and ready. The
system is now ready to operate.
13. RAISING ALL WHEELS: In TEAM mode, press any
UP button on any column to raise the lift. Keep UP button
depressed until the vehicle is raised to the desired
position. If necessary, use a second person to observe
the area not seen by the operator. NOTE: While operating
the lift, you will observe individual columns slowing down
and/or speeding up at various intervals of travel. This is
a normal operating characteristic of the system. Always
press the PARK/LOCK button to lower lift onto the locking
latches before entering work area.
14. RAISING PAIRED AXLE: In PAIR mode, press the
UP button on any PAIRED column to raise the desired
axle. Keep UP button depressed until the vehicle axle is
raised to the desired position. Always press the
PARK/LOCK button to lower lift onto the locking latches
before entering the work area. NOTE: Be sure that if a set
of wheels remains on the ground, they are free to move
uninhibited as the distance changes when one pair of
wheels is higher or lower than the other pair. Keep the
height difference between pairs as low as practical. Under
PAIR mode, the lift will automatically result in an out-of-
level fault if the axle or PAIRED column is out of sync by
more than 12” height difference between carriages.
15. RAISING SINGLE WHEEL: SINGLE operation is
to be used only to initially engage the tires and for slight
equalization adjustments. An audilbe alarm will activate
at all times during SINGLE mode use. To raise only a
single wheel, turn the selector switch to SINGLE at the
post that SINGLE control is desired. Press the UP button
on any paired column to raise the desired wheel. Always
press the PARK/LOCK button to lower lift onto the locking
latches before entering work area.
Parking on Locks / Lowering Vehicle
1. PARKING ALL WHEELS (ON MECHANICAL
LOCKS): The PARK/LOCK button default is set to lower
all selected columns simultaneously onto the mechanical
locks. The PARK/LOCK button will illuminate identifying
that the select lift columns are now PARK ready. At this
time, press the PARK/LOCK button to lower the lift onto
the mechanical locks. Keep the PARK/LOCK button
depressed until the PARK/LOCK button light remains off.
If necessary, use a second person to observe the area not
seen by the operator.
DO NOT LIFT ANY VEHICLE WITH ANY OF
THE TIRES UNDER INFLATED , UN-INFLATED, OR
WITH ANY DAMAGE OR WEAR THAT COULD
COMPROMISE THE LOAD BEARING
CAPABILITY OF THE TIRE.
TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERMIT ONLY TRAINED
PERSONNEL TO OPERATE LIFT.
AFTER REVIEWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS,
PRACTICE USING LIFT CONTROLS BY
RUNNING THE LIFT THROUGH
A FEW UNLOADED CYCLES BEFORE
LOADING VEHICLE ON LIFT. ALWAYS LIFT
THE VEHICLE USING ALL FOUR COLUMNS.
NEVER RAISE JUST ONE END, ONE CORNER,
OR ONE SIDE OF VEHICLE.
MAIN POWER SWITCH MUST BE OFF BEFORE
CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING ANY OF
THE CABLES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROPER
PROCEDURE CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE
ENTIRE CONTROL SYSTEM.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN DOING THIS OPERATION
THAT THE VEHICLE REMAINS STABLE AND THAT
THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT COME IN
CONTACT WITH THE COLUMN.
