Platform Angle Adjustment
Adjusting the platform angle based on the relationship of the platform at ground level directly affects the angle of the platform when positioned at floor level.
Unfold the lift and visually examine the angle of the platform when positioned at floor level. Lower the platform fully and note the angle of the platform when it reaches ground level also. The outboard end of the platform (toe) must contact the ground first when the platform is lowered (all lift models).
Millennium “NL” Series:
The platform angle should be adjusted so there is a balance between the angle at both positions (equal amount of angle). Angle A should equal angle B as shown in Figure C.
Century “NCL” Series:
Vista “NVL” Series:
The platform angle must be adjusted so the outboard end of the platform (toe) is angled down slightly when positioned at floor level. See Figure D. The outboard end of the platform must contact the ground first to ensure the
Adjustment Procedures: Adjustment Allen screws are provided on each side of the lift platform for adjusting the platform angle. Details and photos are provided on the opposite page.
Base Plate Wedges: Installations where base plate wedges are used require more platform angle adjustment than normal.
Platform Stop Blocks: When ad- justing platform angle, ensure both
stop blocks are making full contact with the vertical arms (details on opposite page).
Floor Level Adjustment: Follow- ing platform angle adjustment, set floor level positioning as detailed in
Platform Floor Level Adjustment
(details on page 8).
