BendPak XPR-9 Series User Manual

XPR-9 Series Two-Post Lifts 16 P/N 5900371 — Rev. D2 — May 2023
Choosing a Wide or Narrow Configuration XPR-9TF Only
The XPR-9TF may be installed in a Wide or Narrow Configuration:
• Wide Configuration. The Posts are further apart, which means you can raise wider Vehicles on
the Lift. This is usually the best choice if your Lift location is wide enough to support it. When
installing the Equalizing Cables, use the Button End at the very end of the cable.
• Narrow Configuration. The Posts are closer together. This is usually the best choice for
narrower garages, as it uses less width. When you are installing the Equalizing Cables, use the
Button End away from the end of the cable.
• Routing the Equalizing Cables. The Equalizing Cables come with two Button ends, one for
the Wide Configuration and one for the Narrow Configuration. You need to know which Button end
to use when you put the Equalizing Cables into position.
• Creating the Chalk Line Guides. You use the Width Overall setting (found in
Specifications) to create the Chalk Line Guides, so you know how far apart to put your Posts.
There are two Width Overall settings, one for the Wide Configuration and one for the Narrow
Configuration. You need to know which one to use when you are creating your Chalk Line Guides.
If you are installing a Lift and do not yet know if it is going to be a Wide or a Narrow Configuration, you
need to figure it out now, before you go any further in the installation process.
