COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING
PRIOR TO RAISING THE POSTS
1. Prior to raising posts, slide each carriage upwards to
aid in sheave removal and equalizer cable routing.
2. Remove the cable sheaves located at the inside
bottom of each post.
3. Identify the correct cable button on the end of each
equalizer cable that corresponds to your desired lift
conguration. Route the button around the bottom sheave
and secure at the carriage lock plate located inside each
carriage.
4. Route threaded end of cable upwards through the
bottom of the carriage. Leave excess cable resting on top of
carriage until further steps are required. (See Fig 3.5)
