4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions before use.
WARNING! DO NOT attempt to overload the lift. The hydraulic pump is equipped with a safety valve which will prevent an
excessive load from being lifted.
4.1.
Position the lift in a suitable area, checking that the surface on which the lift will stand is solid and flat (preferably concrete).
Stop the platform inadvertently moving by screwing down the ant-roll locks(19).
4.2.
Check that the lift is fully lowered and that the vice jaws are open.
4.3.
Wheel the bike up the lead plate and onto the platform so that the front of the wheel is just beyond the vice. Support bike on the
centre stand.
4.4.
Clamp front wheel in vice to prevent any movement of the bike.
4.5.
Ensure the bike is securely strapped to the platform.
4.6.
Raise the lift by pumping the foot pedal (17).
4.7.
When the lift is raised to the required height ensure the locking bar (13) locates behind one of the four positions of the main platform
(18) so that the lift cannot be inadvertently lowered.
4.8.
When work is complete, check under the lift to ensure that there are no obstructions and that it is safe to lower the unit.
Raise the platform up enough to take the weight off the locking bar (13), lift the locking bar and then SLOWLY press the
release valve pedal to GENTLY lower the lift.
IMPORTANT!: The speed of lowering is controlled by the release valve. The more the valve is opened the more rapidly the lift
descends. Ensure the descent is slow and controlled.
4.9.
When the lift is fully lowered, unstrap the bike, open the vice jaws and remove the bike from the lift.

5. MAINTENANCE

5.1.
When the lift is not in use, it must be stowed in the lowest position to minimise ram and piston corrosion.
5.2.
Keep the lift clean and wipe off any oil or grease. Lubricate all moving parts..
5.3.
Before each use check all parts. If any part of the lift is damaged or suspect remove lift from service and take necessary action to repair.
DO NOT use the lift if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock. Inspect and take appropriate action.
5.4.
Periodically check the ram and piston for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
5.5.
The hydraulic oil level is checked as follows:
1) Remove hydraulic unit from lift and stand upright.
2) Remove plug. Correct oil level is up to plug aperture - add hydraulic oil as necessary.
