STEP 6: iNSTALL LiFT STRAP ASSEMBLIES

(SEE FIGURE 5)

Loosen the bolts and nuts on the lift strap assemblies 1/4 turn or until the straps will slide back and forth. You will retighten them later in step 26.

Turn the lift strap assemblies as shown. Install each lift strap assembly to an arm of the lift bracket assembly and then secure with a small 1/2" washer (FF) and a short hairpin cotter (Y).

Position the lower end of each lift strap assembly to the outside of the lift frame. Fasten to the upper front holes in the lift frame using a 1/2" x 1" clevis pin (LL), 1/2" long spacer (W) and short hairpin cotter (Y) for each assembly.

NOTE: The lift strap assemblies may be installed in the rear mounting holes of the lift frame to increase the lift height, but this will also increase the lifting effort. The front holes give a lift height of about 6-1/2" and require 28 Ibs. of force to lift a 150 Ib load. The rear holes will give a lift height of about 8-1/2" and require 35 Ibs. of force.
