SP-7XE/F Full-Rise Scissor Lift 26 P/N 5900010 — Rev. B3 — September 2023
The Lift Platforms must be parallel and square to each other before leveling and shimming can be
effective.
4. SP-7XE only: Verify the Frame Assemblies are still within the chalk lines and parallel to each
other by measuring the A and B dimensions from the chalk lines procedure. Drilling may have
moved the bases. Adjust their positions until the A and B dimensions are equal.
5. SP-7XE/XEF: Begin by leveling front to back. The Frame Assemblies will be leveled to the
highest point on the concrete floor. To find the highest point, use a four-foot level across the top of
the Ramps or across the base of the Lift Ramps. Observe the bubble position to determine the
direction and magnitude of the slope pointing to the highest area.
6. Beginning at the corner closest to the highest point, place a slotted shim under the Frame and
around the closest Anchor Bolt to correct the out of level condition until each Frame Assembly is
Level front to back. Do not shim more than 0.5 in. (12 mm) on any one Anchor.
Important:
Use the slotted Shims provided with your Lift around the Anchor Bolt locations as
required. Refer to the figures below.
7. Once the Ramp Assemblies are level front to back, level the Ramp Assemblies laterally across the
Ramp Assemblies.
⚠ WARNING Do not install your Lift on a surface with a slope greater than or equal to 3°. A slope
exceeding 3° can lead to property damage, personal injury, or death. Small
differences in floor level may be compensated for by proper shimming, but any
slope in excess of 3° will have a negative effect on the Lift. If the concrete at the
installation site has an excessive slope, create a concrete cutout, and pour a new
concrete slab. Consult a concrete specialist in such a case.
8. Hammer or mallet the Wedge Anchors the rest of the way down into the hole. Stop hammering
when the Washer is snug against the Base.
9. Torque each anchor to ≈85 - 95 ft. lbs.
10. Verify the Lift is still level. Adjust the number and position of shims if required.
