It is imperative that you replace the zinc on your lift regularly. Because many external factors affect the rate at which a zinc deteriorates, Sunstream recommends that you check its condition frequently, and change the zinc every six months or more often if needed. Zincs on lifts in coastal areas near the ocean deteriorate more rapidly and need to be changed more frequently.
Installation The Maximum Capacity for the Lift should be listed on the lift itself - if it is not, call Sunstream immediately to determine your lifts capacity. Operating the Lift with a greater amount of total weight may cause the lift and boat to become unstable and/or capsize, possibly causing property damage and/or and severe injury or death to individuals situated nearby.

Installation LEVELING AND FINAL POSITION A. Leveling the Sun Lift: Once you have adjusted the lift in its final position, you must now ensure that it is level. To do this, use a suitable measuring device and measure the distance from the top of the Cross Beam to the water surface. The distance at each of the four cor- ners of the lift should be within 2 inches of each other.
Page 28
Use and Maintenance Sunstream recommends an annual inspection of the SunLift by an authorized Sunstream Dealer or other qualified person. For storage and off-season suggestions be sure to prevent rainw ater from accum ulating in your boat if you plan to leave it on the lift for long term storage.

Sun Lift. The Maximum Capacity for the Lift should be listed on the lift itself - if it is not, call Sunstream immediately to determine your lifts capacity.

Safety It is safest to leave the boat in the over-center position. Be sure the Sun Lift remains level at all four corners. Out of level installations may cause lift failure and personal injury. All four corners must be within 2” of each other. If a Sun Lift is located near an area where swimmers are prone to diving into the water (such as off of a boathouse), make sure they are aware of the location of the Sun Lift when boat is not present, and lift is hidden under water.
