XPR-9 Series Two-Post Lifts 27 P/N 5900371 — Rev. D2 — May 2023
Effective Embedment is the location in the Hole where the Expansion Sleeve presses into the
Concrete. This is where the Anchor Bolts get their holding strength, the further down into the Hole, the
greater the holding strength.
Nominal Embedment is how far down into the Hole the bottom of the Anchor Bolt is, which does
not tell you anything about the holding strength.
Not to scale. Components removed for clarity.
To install the Posts:
1. Using a Forklift or Shop Crane, move the Posts to the Chalk Line Guides you created earlier.
2. Stand up each Post, one at a time, and move it to the appropriate location.
3. Double check your measurements against the Specifications for your Lift model:
Distance from back of one Base Plate to back of the other Base Plate: Width Overall value
Distance from inside of one Post to inside of the other Post: Inside Posts value
4. Using the Base Plates as guides, drill each hole 4.5 inches deep; use a masonry bit.
Do not drill all the way through the Concrete; if you punch completely through the slab, you could
compromise the holding strength of the Anchor Bolts.
Drill in straight; do not let the drill wobble.
