12 Vehicle Power Supply Installation Guide
Installation Recommendations
Review the lift vehicles to be serviced before you start. Plan the
installation following these safety and utility recommendations.
• Install the power cable at the vehicle power source if possible
or at the point where the connection is first made to the lift.
• Keep the power cable length as short as possible.
• Connect the negative lead to a point common to any other
electronic systems on the lift.
• Verify that the vehicle power source voltage falls within the
power supply input voltage rating. See Chapter 1 “Power
Supply Options” for identifying information.
• Remember that the kit with the lower input (15-96 VDC)
voltage rating, P/N 851-041-003, has a 2-pin input
connector.
• Using a mounting bracket for the vehicle power supply
simplifies service, since you can take down and replace the
entire bracket with another bracket, and troubleshoot the
system away from the lift.
• Design a bracket that will be common to multiple lifts and
use pre-attached devices to simplify the device installation and
service.
