OVERVIEW OF THE LIFT

2.1 General descriptions
This floor plate two posts lift is composed of posts, carriages, lifting arms, cylinders and motor unit, etc.
It is driven by an electro-hydraulic system. The gear pump delivers hydraulic oil to oil cylinders and pushes upwards its piston. The
piston drives the chain to raise the carriage and the lifting arms. During lifting process,
the safety latch will automatically and firmly bite with the safety teeth block in the posts. Therefore, no slipping will happen in
case the hydraulic system beaks down.

3.1.2 List for parts checking ---Annex 1（Packing list）

Unfold the package and check if any parts missed as per Annex 1. Do not hesitate to contact us in case any parts missed, but if
you do not contact us and insist installing upon the lack of some parts, well as our dealers will not bear any responsibility for this
and will charge for any parts subsequently demanded by the buyer.

3.1.3 Ground conditions

The lift should be fixed on a smooth and solid concrete ground with its strength more than 3000psi, tolerance of flatness less
than 5mm and minimum thickness of 200mm. In addition, newly built concrete ground must undergo more than 28days’ cure
and reinforcement.

3.2 Precautions for installation

3.2.1 Make sure the two posts stand paralleled and are vertical to the ground. No slanting.
3.2.2 Joints of oil hose and steel cable must be firmly connected in order to avoid the looseness of steel cable and leakage of oil
hose.
3.2.3 All bolts should be firmly screwed up.
3.2.4 Do not place any vehicle on the lift in the case of trial running.

3.3 Installation

Step 1: Remove the packaging, take out the carton for accessories and cover plate.
Step 2: Firstly, put something supporting between the two posts or suspend one of the posts by a crane and then remove the
bolts on the package.
Attention：Please pay special attention not to let the post fall down for it may cause casualty or bring damages to the accessories
fixed in the post.
Step3: When the first post has been taken away, place something supporter under the second post and then remove the bolts
on the package.

 USER’S GUIDE V1.1 201408
Step 4: Fix the standing position for the two posts. (See Annex 3, floor plan)

1. Unfold the package and decide on which post the power unit will be mounted.

2. Draw an outline of the base plate on the ground with chalk and ascertain the position for the post.

Step 5: Erect the posts, power side post first and then the other post.

1.Drill anchor holes for expansion bolts on the ground with an electrical drill. Make sure to drill vertically.

2.After holes have been drilled, remove thoroughly the debris and dust in them and ascertain that the posts stay upon the circle
previously drawn by chalk.

 USER’S GUIDE V1.1 201408
Step6: Connect steel cables.

1. Route and fix according to the following diagram of steel cable connection.

2. Raise carriages on both sides approximately 800mm above the ground. Carriages must be on the same height from the floor.

3. Make sure that the mechanical safety locks in each post are fully engaged before attempting to route cables.

4. After the cable being fixed, adjust and make the cable at both sides be with the same tightness which could be judged by the
sound emitted during lifting process. Make judge and adjustment after trial running.

5. Grease after being fixed. (It is a must.)

 USER’S GUIDE V1.1 201408
Step7: Mount the power unit onto the power side post.

Step8: Connect oil hoses.

Connect the oil hose as per the following diagram.

-9-
 USER’S GUIDE V1.1 201408
Step9: Install lifting arms.

Connect the lifting arm and the carriage by shafts.

Install the lifting arms onto the carriages and ensure the arm lock could work.

Step10: Fill with hydraulic oil.

The volume of oil tank is 10L.To insure the lift work normally, the amount of oil in it should at least reach 80% of the tank’s total
volume.
32#anti-abrasion hydraulic oil for winter, 46# for summer.

Step11: Trial running.

1. Do refer to the operation instructions in advance and keep in mind that no vehicle left on the lift in the process of trial running.
2.Check if mechanical locks can be well engaged or released in the running process. Adjust by screwing the hex head screw as
showed in the following drawing in case the locks do not work well. (Screw clockwise in case the lock can not release and screw
counterclockwise in case the lock can’t be engaged.)

3. Check and ensure all the connections are in good condition.

4. No vehicle on the lift during trial running.

6.1 Daily checking items before operation

The user must perform daily check. Daily check of safety lock system in very important – the discovery of device failure before
action could save time and prevent great loss, injury or casualty.
·Before operation, judge whether the safety locks are engaged by sound.
·Check whether oil hose well connected and whether it leaks or not.
·Check the connections of chain and steel cable and check the power unit.
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
·Check if arm lock works well or not.
6.2 Weekly checking items
·Check the flexibility of moving parts.
·Check the working conditions of safety parts.
·Check the amount of oil left in the oil tank. Oil is enough if the carriage can be raised to highest position. Otherwise, oil is
insufficient.
·Check whether expansion bolt s firmly screwed.
6.3 Monthly checking items
·Check whether expansion bolts are firmly screwed.
·Check the tightness of the hydraulic system and screw firm the joints if it leaks.
·Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of axial pins, carriages, lifting arms and other related parts and replace in time
with new ones if they failed to work well.
·Check the lubrication and abrasion circumstance of steel cable.
6.4 Yearly checking items
·Empty the oil tank and check the quality of hydraulic oil.
·Wash and clean the oil filter.

If users strictly follow the above maintenance requirements, the lift will keep in a good working condition and meanwhile
accidents could be avoided to a large extent.
