If your Rotary Lifting Systems display is unresponsive, power off the unit and inspect the wire connections on the display board, focusing on the keypad, push buttons, and the control board. After ensuring secure connections, restart the power to test if the issue is resolved.
Why is my Rotary MCH14 slow to rise?
If your Rotary Lifting Systems is slow to rise, it might be overloaded. You should also check the battery and its connections, and inspect the oil system for any dirt or debris.
What to do if I get a low battery error on my Rotary MCH14 Lifting Systems?
If you experience a 'Low Battery Error' on your Rotary Lifting Systems, the batteries have likely reached a critical level. Check the battery charge to resolve this issue.
How to troubleshoot Wireless Radio Error on Rotary Lifting Systems?
If you are experiencing a 'Wireless Radio Error' with your Rotary Lifting Systems, ensure that the radio modem board is powered "ON". Also, verify that the cables connecting the control and modem board are securely attached, and that the wireless module is properly seated into the modem board.
What does Weight Sensor Error mean on Rotary MCH14?
If your Rotary Lifting Systems shows a 'Weight Sensor Error', it means there's an issue with the weight sensing device. The displayed weight values will be inaccurate until the next lift power cycle.
What causes Intermittent Power Fault Error in Rotary Lifting Systems?
An 'Intermittent Power Fault Error' on your Rotary Lifting Systems indicates that the power supply to the control board has become inconsistent. To address this, check the fuses and ensure all power connections to the control board are secure.
What to do if Rotary MCH14 Lifting Systems loses communication?
If the Rotary Lifting Systems experiences 'Communication Loss' during operation, it means that communication between columns was temporarily lost. You can try the operation again after releasing the button.
What happens when Rotary Lifting Systems reaches height limit?
If the Rotary Lifting Systems has reached the programmed height limit, no further upward movement is possible.
What does Height Offset Limit Reached mean for Rotary MCH14 Lifting Systems?
If the Rotary Lifting Systems has reached the programmed offset height limit, it will not go any higher.

Rotary's Mobile Lift System units are shipped in the vertical position.
Unit is shipped without power unit fluid. Installation of fluid MUST be completed prior to lift operation.
Install batteries as recommended (e.g., 12V DC Sealed Deep Cycle) and check specifications.
Adjust unloaded column ground clearance using M20 and M10 bolts.
Warning: Do not use on asphalt. Ensure concrete strength and thickness. Check floor slope.
Install the antenna and set up the charging dock for the lift system.
Understand the meaning of charger lights (blinking/solid) for charging status.
Release air from the hydraulic system by loosening the bleed screw until fluid runs clear.
Adhere to specified torque values (177-230 In/Lbs) for the bleeder screw.
Verify proper operation: locks, equal lifting, no leaks, and functional controls after assembly.
Inspect lift daily, keep area clean of debris and oil, and never operate a malfunctioning lift.
Ensure trained operators only. Prohibit unauthorized personnel and operations like lifting people.
Never overload lift. Load vehicles carefully, ensuring forks contact tires securely.
Do not override self-closing controls. Always ensure columns are on locking latches.
Stay clear during lowering, avoid rocking, remove obstructions before lowering.
Do not perform maintenance with power on. Do not use damaged equipment.
Observe sound levels, avoid driving over pendant, use multiple columns, check lift channels.
Understand and heed various CAUTION and WARNING labels for safe operation.
Ensure operators are qualified and trained on lift use per manufacturer and ANSI/ALI standards.
Establish and follow procedures for regular lift inspection and maintenance.
Display operating instructions and maintain records. Provide lockout/tagout provisions.
No modifications to the lift are permitted without prior written manufacturer consent.
Follow steps for powering up the remote, setting system ID, column count, and columns.
Understand Emergency Stop function and basic remote control buttons (Power, Lights).
Learn to read the digital display (System ID, Column Count) and column indicator lights.
Use joystick for raising/lowering. Engage locks using the 'Lower To Lock' function.
Use column buttons to pair columns. Lock/Unlock the entire group as needed.
Prepare service area, position vehicle on level concrete, ensure adequate strength and thickness.
Power controller, set system ID, and select the number of columns for the lift.
Position columns under tires, adjust forks, activate power switch; linking indicated by beacons.
Complete setup for all columns; system automatically locks upon successful configuration.
Verify vehicle weight, fork contact, clearance, parking brake, and tire inflation before lifting.
Raise lift until tires clear floor, check fork contact, and continue to desired height.
Lower onto locks, avoid rocking, remove items, reset brake, and clear vehicle path.
Use joystick to lower, observing column movement and vehicle level. Note normal speed variations.
Understand Standard Flex (single mode) and Flex Max (all columns) functions for column buttons.
Controller enters inactive state after 10s; use Resume to reactivate. Columns signal reactivation.
Operate columns individually (Solo), in pairs, or all together using remote or column buttons.
Interpret column LEDs: Green (linked), Yellow (inactive), Blinking Yellow (pairing), Red (error/limit).
Modify system configuration by restarting setup or using resume quick start for column swaps.
Activate Flex Max for grouped control via remote or buttons. Requires specific software and hardware.
Set a height difference limit between forks. Software revision 8+ required. Limit is disabled by default.
Immediately press the Emergency Stop button on the column or wireless remote.
If E-Stop fails, locate and use the Main DC Disconnect Switch to terminate power.
Ensure vehicle stability, clear area, and equal column lowering before manual descent.
Open cover, pull lock, push Manual Lowering Valve Button to descend carriage incrementally.
Plug in for ~15 minutes to gain enough charge for one lifting cycle from fully discharged batteries.
Do not use if malfunctioning; seek repairs from qualified service personnel.
Chargers can be plugged in continuously. AGM or deep cycle batteries are recommended.
Use front panel indicators (Yellow/Red) and charger lights to monitor battery charge and status.
