Checking the Installation Orientation
Keep these factors in mind when deciding how you are going to orient the Lift:
• The first thing to figure out is which direction you will be driving the Vehicles in, called the
Approach.
In some cases, this is very easy: there’s a driveway on one side and a wall on the other side. The
driveway is your Approach. This makes the wall side the Front of the Lift and the driveway side the
Rear of the Lift.
If both sides are open, decide which way you will be driving the Vehicles onto the Lift. This is the
Approach. The drive-
on
side is the Rear of the Lift and the drive-
off
side is the Front.
Designating Front and Rear is important because the shorter Lift Arms go on the Front of the Lift
and the longer Lift Arms go on the Rear.
To determine the Front of your Lift, drive a Vehicle straight in (do not back it in) and stop. The Front
of the Lift is where the Front of the Vehicle is.
• The Power Unit must go on the Powerside Post. You can identify the Powerside Post by the
Mounting Bracket to which the Power Unit attaches; only one Post that came with your Lift has a
Mounting Bracket.
