Important-
This means to measure the lift’s four post spans as well as measuring diagonally.
Diagonally means post measurements in an “X” fashion. Front Post Chalk Lines and final positions
MUST agree within an 1/8 in. or 3.2 mm during final anchoring of lift. Double-Check that nothing
has moved before and after tightening.
Concrete specifications are:
• Depth: 4.25 in. thick
• PSI: 3,000 PSI, minimum
• Cured: 28 days, minimum
Anchor Bolt specifications are:
• Length: 4.75 in.
• Diameter: 0.75 in.
• Anchor torque: 85 – 95 pound feet
⚠ WARNING You
must
wear OSHA-approved (publication 3151) personal protective equipment
at all times when installing, using, maintaining, or repairing the Lift. Leather gloves,
steel-toed work boots, eye protection, back belts, and hearing protection are
mandatory
.
⚠ WARNING Your Concrete and Anchor Bolts
must
meet these specifications. Only install your
Lift on a Concrete surface. Installing a Lift on asphalt or any other non-concrete
surface, or with Concrete or Anchor Bolts that do not meet required specifications,
may lead to product damage, Vehicle damage, personal injury, or even death.
⚠ CAUTION BendPak Lifts are supplied with installation instructions and concrete anchors that
meet the criteria set by the current version of the American National Standard
“Automotive Lifts – Safety Requirements for Construction, Testing, and Validation”,
ANSI/ALI ALCTV. You are responsible for any special regional structural and/or
seismic anchoring requirements specified by any other agencies and/or codes such
as the Uniform Building Code (UBC) and/or International Building Code (IBC). Be
sure to check your floor for the possibility of it being a
post-tension slab
. In this
case, contact the building architect before drilling. Using ground penetrating radar
may help you find the tensioned steel.
⚠ WARNING Cutting through a tensioned cable can result in injury or death. Do not drill into a
post-tension slab unless the building architect confirms you are not going to hit
tensioned steel, or you have located it using ground penetrating radar. If colored
sheath comes up during drilling, stop drilling immediately.
⚠ WARNING Use only the Anchor Bolts delivered with the Lift. If components from a different
source are used, you void your warranty and compromise the safety of everyone
who installs or operates the Lift.
Lift buyers are responsible for conforming to all regional, structural, and seismic anchoring
requirements specified by any other agencies and/or codes, such as the Uniform Building Code and/or
International Building Code.
