XPR-10 Series Two-Post Lifts 56 P/N 5900951 — Rev. D — May 2019
Leveling
Before operating your Lift, you need to make sure the Lift Posts are straight and the Lift Arms are level:
• Lift Posts: The Posts
must
be the same distance apart at the top and at the bottom.
To make sure the Posts are straight, measure the distance between the two Posts six inches
below the Overhead Assembly and one foot off the ground (you will need to move the Lift Arms out
of the way). The two measurements (A and B in the drawing below) must be the same.
If the Posts are not straight, shim them as required.
⚠ CAUTION If your Lift Posts are not straight or your Lift Arms are not level, this is a safety risk.
The Vehicles you put on the Lift will be less secure; they could fall and cause injuries
or damage to the Vehicle or to the Lift.
• Lift Arms: When the Lift Posts are straight, make sure the Lift Arms are level. To make sure they
are level, raise them to the first locking position and put a level on the Pads.
What can you do if the Lift Arms are not level? Adjust the Equalizing Cables. Determine which Lift
Arm is low, then adjust the Nut on the bottom of the Threaded End of the Equalizing Cable until the
Lift Arms are level. When you believe the Lift Arms to be level, raise the Lift and listen for the Lift
Heads hitting the Safety Locks (there is a distinct thump). What you want is for the thumps to be
simultaneous or close to it.
Important: If you have
not
yet torqued the Anchor Bolts (in order to make it easier to install the
Overhead Assembly and to perform final leveling), you can torque them once you
have completed final leveling.
