STEP 10
(Installing Hydraulic Lines)
1. Install the bulkhead tee tting into the Power Side
post. The through hole is located approximately 90 inches
from the oor on the back wall of the Power Side post.
2. Connect the Power Side cylinder hose to the tee
tting. Be sure to route the hose through the retainer clips
inside the posts.
3. Route the Off Side cylinder hose (Crossover Hose)
up through the post and across the Overhead Assembly,
down the post and connect it to the bulkhead tee tting.
(See Fig 10.1 and Fig 10.2)
STEP 11
(Routing the Equalizer Cables)
Refer to illustrations on Page 15.
1. Raise and lock each Carriage approximately 28”
above the ground. (See Fig. 11.1)
2. With the Carriages locked at 28” off the oor, route the
Equalizer Cables up to the Top Trough.
3. Route the cables through the sheave brackets and
reinstall the sheaves. (See Fig. 11.2)
Note: The sheaves should have been removed in Step 6.
4. Insert the threaded end of the cable through the
hole on top of the carriage. Place M18 washer and M18
Nylock nut on threaded cable end. Tighten cable nuts

WHEN ROUTING THE HYDRAULIC HOSE
THROUGH THE POSTS, MAKE SURE TO ROUTE
THROUGH THE HOSE CLIPS WELDED INSIDE
EACH POST. MAKE SURE THAT THE HOSE IS
CLEAR OF ANY MOVING PARTS. IT MAY BE

WHEN THE CABLE ADJUSTING NUTS BOTTOM OUT
ON THE THREADED END OF THE CABLE
CONNECTOR AND THERE IS STILL SLACK IN THE
CABLES, THE CABLES HAVE STRETCHED BEYOND
THE SAFE USEFUL LENGTH AND NEED TO BE
REPLACED WITH FACTORY APPROVED CABLE
ASSEMBLIES. DO NOT PLACE WASHERS, SPACERS
OR OTHER DEVICES TO “SHORTEN” THE
EFFECTIVE CABLE LENGTH AS DAMAGE TO THE
LIFT OR INJURY TO PERSONS MAY OCCUR.
Fig 11.1
MAKE SURE THAT THE SAFETY LOCKS ON EACH
POST ARE FULLY ENGAGED BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO ROUTE EQUALIZER CABLES AND/OR HOSES.
CARRIAGES MUST BE EQUAL HEIGHT FROM
THE FLOOR BEFORE PROCEEDING.
FOR WIDE CONFIGURATION, A 13” EXTENSION
FOR SYMMETRIC MODELS OR AN 8” EXTENSION
FOR ASYMMETRIC, MUST BE INSTALLED TO
THE CROSSOVER HOSE. A JIC TO JIC STRAIGHT
FITTING HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO CONNECT THE
CROSSOVER HOSE TO THE EXTENSION HOSE IN
THE PARTS BOX. (See Fig. 10.1 A)
