ADVANCED SWITCH CONTROL (ASC)
The Advanced Switch Control (ASC) (Fig. 4) is located on a
separate box. It is designed to allow for easy hook up of
standard and optional components as well as the resetting
of tripped circuits.
• The black wire is for the limit switch.
• The blue wire is for the wired remote/key switch.
• The yellow wire is for the wireless receiver.
The resetable circuit breakers are designed to trip if there is
a short in the wires. The DC version has one reset for the
radio remote receiver and the optional flood lights. The AC
version has two resets, one for the radio remote receiver
and optional flood lights and the
other reset is for the drive motor.
If one trips you can reset it by
pressing in the reset button. If it
continuously trips refer to the
trouble shooting section of this
book. (Fig. 5)

Drive Train
(Power Unit &
Ball Screw)
When operated, the motor turns the ball-screw, allowing the
ball-nut to travel back and forth along the screw. This raises
and lowers the lift, as shown in Fig. 3.

The drive train simply spins the
screw so that the ball nut travels
back and forth as it pulls the
lifting cable.
DRIVE TRAIN & BALL SCREW
This boat lift is equipped with FLOE’s exclusive Vertical
Screw Drive (VSD) drive train technology. The VSD system
replaces the common winch style drive-train common to
most boat lifts. It uses DC or AC powered, high-torque
electric motor along with a ball-screw and ball-nut
mechanism. See Fig 2.
Maintenance and trouble-shooting tips for the exclusive
drive-train system are addressed later in this manual.
This efficient drive train has enabled FLOE to design a lift
for mid-sized boats that is easily powered by a 24-Volt
battery system or a 120-Volt AC power system, and to
develop a line of optional accessories to keep the
batteries charged effortlessly.
To prepare your VSD lift for operation, you should first
understand the basics for setting up the electrical features
of the lift, and especially the importance of the limit switch
safety feature.
