until oil comes out of the loosen threaded joint at the topside of opposite column.
• Fasten the threaded joint at the top of opposite column.
• Load this carriage which has got a higher position (stand on it) and press
simultaneously the button „Lifting“ . Only that carriage without load is lifted. That carriage
must be lifted until the carriage at the operating side is 10 cm higher than the carriage at the
opposite side.
• Dismount pulley at lower side in column (opposite side) by loosing the circlip. Lay
loosen synchronising rope from topside round the pulley and remount pulley with rope.
Secure the pulley with washer and circlip while installing it.
• Insert synchronising rope from lower side in ratchet strip which is fixed at lower
side of carriage. Insert thread bolt at end of the rope through bore-hole which is
located at hang up of the rope topside at ratchet strip.
• Screw self-locking nut approx. 4 turns on thread bolt to fix the rope safely at
carriage. Do not damage the piston rod.
• Load carriage of operating side (stand on it) and press the button „Lifting“. Only the opposite
side of the lift is lifted.
• Lift the opposite side until the carriage of the operating side is lifted.
• Mount the second rope in the operating column as well.
• Fasten self-locking nuts at upper side in both carriages regularly until both ropes are
tighten lightly. If the thread at upper side of carriage is too short, the self-locking nut
at the other side carriage (lower side) must be fastened accordingly.
• Lower automotive lift to lowest position and lift it afterwards 500 - 600 mm. Both
ropes must be tightened lightly. In any other case the self-locking nuts at the upper
side on both carriages must be adjusted again.
Pay attention that each of the two ropes is tightened regularly and that it is
not too slack, otherwise exactly synchronisation can not be guaranteed.
Pay attention that the ropes are not too tight, otherwise there is the
possibility that the lift jerks, or that the lift is too slow while lowering.
The ropes don’t carry load. They must regulate an exactly synchronisation
of the lift.
• Install carrying arms (refer to data sheet), lubricate bolts and secure
them with enclosure circlips at both ends.
• Test the function of the safety ratchet.
• Test the function (top limit switch) of the cover of the crossbeam.
9.3 Deaerate the hydraulic-system
• Lower the lift in the lowest position.
Loose the thread joint at the lower side of the cylinder which must be deaerated.
Raise the lift until oil comes out of the thread joint. Close the thread joint and fasten
it.
In case the lift jerks while the lowering there are two possibilities: the synchronising
ropes are too tight or oil is in oil circulation (deaerate according to instruction ahead)
