OPERATION
To Load a Drywall Panel
To disassemble the Drywall Lift for transport or compact storage;
1. Crank the cradle all the way down.
2. Slide the cradle outriggers all the way in until they latch.
Close the
panel support hooks.
3. Remove the cross arms by pressing the spring tab on the bottom and
sliding the crossarm out of the tapered socket.
4. Unlock the cradle tilt latch. Lift the cradle (about 3 in.) until you can
remove it from the frame.
5. Rotate the winch wheel one full rotation forward as shown. This will
raise the inner telescoping section.
6. Unlock the winch assembly by lifting the slide bar with your left hand
while you rotate the slide bar lock counterclockwise with your right hand.
7. Hold the slide bar lock in this disengaged position (step 6). and press
down on the telescoping sections in the frame with your left hand. The
winch assembly will move toward the frame housing.
8. Crank the telescoping sections all the way down. Swing up the
retaining hook as
shown, and crank the telescoping sections back up
slightly until secured by the hook.
9. Hold the
retaining hook in this position with your left hand, and rotate the
winch forward with your right hand.
The winch assembly will fold up against the frame. When the slide bar
contacts the frame, tighten the cable by turning the wheel further (just
enough to hold the winch assembly in this position).
10. Carefully lift the frame/winch about 1 in. to free it from the tripod
base.
11. To fold the base, press down on the slide yoke ring and pivot the
forward legs in until they lock in the closed position.
MAINTENANCE
• Inspect the cable before each work day. Replace it at the rst sign of wear (refer to
the instructions supplied with the replacement cable).
• Occasionally oil the cable pulleys. Crank up the telescoping sections for access to
the internal cable pulley. Never allow oil or grease to contact the surface of the winch
brake drum.
• Occasionally oil the caster bearings.
• If the telescoping sections of the frame don’t operate smoothly, apply household
parafn to the sliding surfaces.
