D4-9 / D4-9X Four-Post Lifts 35 P/N 5900251 — Rev. A1— August 2021
Important: Make sure to route each Lifting Cable correctly. If you route a Lifting Cable to the
wrong Post, it will either be too short or too long. If this happens, check to see where
the Lifting Cable is supposed to go and then route it there. As a general rule, there
should be about 1 inch of threads above the Top Cap when you put the Lifting
Cable in place. If there is significantly less or more, you have the wrong cable.
The following drawing shows how Lifting Cables are routed to the top of their Posts.
View is from the inside of the Lift. Not to scale. Not all components shown.
We recommend routing Cables A and C together first, and then Cables B and D.
To route the Lifting Cables:
1. Locate the shortest Lifting Cable, Cable A, and the second longest Lifting Cable, Cable C.
Check the label to make sure you have the correct Lifting Cable.
2. Make sure the Nut has been removed from the Threaded end of both Lifting Cables (the Nut
cannot be on during routing, but keep it nearby, you will need it again soon).
3.
Starting with Cables A and C
, attach the Button ends of Cables A and C to the Tie Plate.
As shown in the drawing on the previous page, A goes on the bottom, C above it.
4. Route Cables A and C towards where the double sheaves are going to be re-installed.
Put both cables into position such that when the double sheaves are re-installed, Cables A and C
will both be going around the Sheaves.
5. Reinstall the double sheave for Cables A and C.
Refer to About Cable Sheaves for a drawing of how to reinstall the double sheave.
6.
Switching to just Cable A
, remove the Retainer Bolt under the Crosstube Sheave.
