PART NO. 690809 REV: A 19
Mooring the FloatLift
Sea Conditions
The FloatLift is designed for a protected environment, with waves typically less than 1 ft from crest to
trough. Larger waves may shorten lifespan of FloatLift.
Dock requirements
Floating Dock
A floating dock must be capable of supporting the weight of the Powerpack (445 lbs). It must be high
enough off the water to prevent waves from splashing the powerpack. Dock needs to be stable enough
to keep powerpack from sliding on dock. Secure powerpack to dock if needed.
Fixed dock
A fixed dock must be capable of supporting the weight of the Powerpack (445 lbs). Be certain to check
extreme tide prediction to assure hoses will not pull powerpack into the water. Contact Sunstream for
hose extensions if needed. For tides greater than 1 foot, sliding cleats such as the Tide-Slide brand are
recommended.
Dock Lines
Secure the FloatLift to the dock similar to a boat using at least 5/8” dock lines. The other end of the
dock line may be secured on a cleat appropriately sized for the boat on the lift. Make sure to leave
enough slack in the lines to account for lift operation, wave action and elevation differences (i.e. tides)
between cleat and water level.
Side Tie
Tie the lift to the side of a dock as shown using a bow line, stern line two spring lines.
4-Way tie
Tie the lift to slip as shown using a dock line on each corner. A minimum slip size of 22 ft or a side-tie is
required.
