Operation

This section describes how to use the ATV/Motorcycle Lift safely during normal operation.
Safety Rules
Important:
To use your ATV/Motorcycle Lift safely:
• Before raising a Vehicle, inspect the Lift—every time. Check for kinked hoses, worn or missing
parts, or any other issues. If you see anything wrong, take the Lift out of service, disconnect it
from its Air Supply (if connected), and then contact an authorized repair facility, your
distributor, or BendPak Ranger at (805) 933-9970.
• Only allow trained, supervised personnel to operate the Lift.
⚠
WARNING
• Never exceed the rated capacity of the Lift.
• The Air Pump is a tripping hazard if you keep it on the ground. Make sure everyone who uses
the Lift or works near it is aware of the location of the Air Pump.
• Avoid off-center loads. If the Lift seems to be having difficulty raising a Vehicle or the load
appears unbalanced, stop operation immediately, carefully lower the Lift back down to the
ground, check everything out, make any necessary adjustments, then try again.
• Do not stand on the Platform or let anyone else do so.
• Do not sit on a Vehicle that is on the Platform or let anyone else do so.
• Only leave the Lift if it is fully lowered or engaged on Safety Locks.
• Before lowering the Platform, check underneath it on all sides. Make sure nothing has been left
under the Lift. If there is anything underneath the Lift, move it before lowering the Platform.
• Other than the Technician operating the Lift, keep all other people a minimum of 30 feet away
from the Lift while it is being used.
• Stand clear of the Lift (especially pinch points) while it is being raised or lowered.
• Do not allow unauthorized people, children, or animals near the Lift while it is being used.
• Do not let anyone use the Lift who is under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
• Do not enter the Lift's work area until you have personally confirmed that the Lift is engaged on
Safety Locks.
• Pay attention at all times while using the Lift. Safety is your top priority at all times.
