Dannmar D4-9 - Planning for Electrical Work; Unloading and Unpacking

D4-9 / D4-9X Four-Post Lifts 17 P/N 5900251 — Rev. A1— August 2021
Planning for Electrical Work
You will need to have a licensed, certified Electrician available at some point during the installation.
⚠ DANGER All wiring must be performed by a licensed, certified Electrician in accordance with
local and national electrical codes.
Notify your Electrician in advance so that they come with a Power Disconnect Switch and a Thermal
Disconnect Switch. If you ordered a 220 VAC Power Unit, they will also need to bring appropriate
components.
Your Electrician needs to:
• Install a Power Disconnect Switch. Ensures you can quickly and completely interrupt
electrical power to the Lift in the event of an electrical circuit fault, emergency situation, or when
equipment is undergoing service or maintenance. Put it within sight and reach of the Lift operator.
• Install a Thermal Disconnect Switch. Ensures the equipment shuts down in the event of an
overload or an overheated motor.
• Connect an electric power source to the Power Unit for 220 VAC Power Units. If
you are using a 220 VAC Power Unit—instead of the standard 110 VAC Power Unit—your
Electrician will need to bring and install appropriate components. Refer to Contacting the
Electrician for more information.
Important: The standard 110 VAC Power Units come with a power cord and appropriate plug.
Just plug it in to a 110 VAC outlet.
Unloading and Unpacking
Once the components are unloaded, they are your responsibility to move around. As the Lift includes a
number of heavy pieces, the closer you unload them to the installation location, the better off you are.
⚠ CAUTION Some Lift components are very heavy; if handled incorrectly, they can
damage materials like tile, sandstone, and brick. Try to handle the Lift components
twice: once when delivered and once when moved into position. You must have a
Forklift or Shop Crane to move them into position. Use care when moving them.
⚠ WARNING The Lift is delivered with stabilizing structures on each end. Be very careful when
removing these stabilizing structures; the Posts and Runways can shift or even fall.
If they fall on a person, they could cause serious injury.
Important Note:
Before removing the Powerside Runway (the Runway with the Hydraulic Cylinder and the Lifting
Cables under it), remove the four Runway Sheaves on one end of the Powerside Runway and the two
Runway Sheaves on the other end.
Pay attention to the order in which the Runway Sheaves come off; later in the
installation you will need to put them back into place in the reverse order from how
you took them off
