When determining whether to place the Ezy-Lift closer to the rear of the truck bed or towards the truck cab the decision should be based on the size of the loads mostly hoisted. The larger the dimensions of the load the further back towards the rear of the bed the unit should be mounted. - Page 5 Use the number, (Distance Frame to Bed Edge), arrived at in the equation above and the tape measure and adjust the posi- tion of the Unit Arm Frames so that they are exactly parallel with the edge of the bed and exactly the distance from the bed edge the entire length of the frames.
- Page 6 If, after measurements are rechecked, it is determined that the Unit Frames’ respective positions are correct, look inside the Pump Housing on the driver’s side Unit Frame and mark a center point for the hole that the power cords and hydraulic lines will pass through. Do the same thing for the passenger side Unit Frame. Remove the four screws holding the driver’s side Unit Frame in position and move the Frame aside.
- Page 7 Attach hydraulic hoses Bring the hydraulic hose ends up through the hole in the Pump Housing to be connected. Remove one of the fitting-plug from one of the hoses, affix the end to the valve fitting and tighten. Repeat with the other hose end. The larger (#6) fitting requires an 11/16”...

Connect the short cord to the Fuse Terminal closest to the battery. Pass the end of the long up into the engine compartment and connect it to the other Fuse Termi- nal.
- Page 9 Plug the female fitting into the receptacle on the rear of the pump side frame. Depress and hold the “Boom Out” button. Both of the unit arms will begin to move up and back towards the rear of the truck bed. It is normal that the arm on the pump side should move at a brisker pace than the other side.
- Page 10 Back out the three screws that secure the Winch Terminal Block Cover. Remove the cover and set it aside. A fish lead will extend out of the Winch Power Cable Feed Hole and run through the crossbar towards the end that abuts to the pump side arm.
- Page 11 Secure the crossbar to the unit arm brackets with the 5/16” x 4” bolts and the lock nuts. The crossbar fit into the bracket is extremely tight. It may be necessary to tap it in place with the rubber mallet. After the crossbar is secured insert the plastic caps into the open ends.
- Page 12 Do not overload. Overloads can cause damage and create unsafe operating conditions. Ensure that the rated load capacity of any sling, lifter or fitting is not exceeded. Learn to use Ezy-Lift. Take time to practice so that you are comfortable with the operating system.

Page 13: Before Operating
Lift the load only high enough to clear the tailgate or rear of the cargo bed. Avoid putting fingers arms in pinch points between Ezy-Lift arm frame and top of cargo box. Do not stand in cargo bed when loading or unloading. -
Page 14: Operation
OPERATION Your Ezy-Lift system operates from the vehicles12-volt battery, which provides power to the crane winch and the hydraulic power unit. The hydraulic unit is completely self-contained with a DC motor, gear pump, reser- voir, load hold checks and relief valves to prevent overloading. Flow from the pump to a pair of double acting cylinders, provides the lift and rotation necessary to extend and retract the lift arms via the hand held remote control. - Page 15 Ezy-Lift Inspection & Maintenance Ezy-lift is designed to give years of carefree operation.
