BOOM-ARM ADJUSTMENT

Before adjusting the boom-arm, lower the lifting hook about 12 in. (30.5 cm). This will provide enough slack in the strap to enable the adjustable portion of the boom- arm (top tube) to be pulled out of the bottom tube to its farthest adjustment hole. See figure 9.

To adjust the boom-arm:

1.Remove the bow tie cotter pin from the adjustment pin and remove the adjustment pin.

2.Slide the top tube in or out to the desired adjustment hole.

3.Align the adjustment holes of the top and bottom tube and reinsert the adjustment pin.

NOTE: Do not force the pin into the adjustment hole. Be sure that the strap is not pinched when inserting the pin.

4.Reinstall the bow tie cotter pin into the adjustment pin to secure the boom-arm.

L-BASE INSTALLATION

 

 

Tools needed for installation:

 

 

Power drill

3/8” drill bit

Adjustable wrench

Socket set

Phillips head screwdriver

After determining the ideal spot for your lift to be permanently mounted, remove the entire lift from the vehicle except for the L-base.

1.Inspect the undercarriage of the vehicle where the lift L-base is located for obstructions that may hinder the installation of the five (5) mounting bolts that will secure the L-base to the vehicle. Obstructions may consist of electrical wiring, gas tank, bumper mounts, or exhaust pipes. You may need to adjust the base extensions to clear obstructions. If possible, install the L-base with the base extensions fully extended. See figure 10.

WARNING! Explosive Conditions Hazard! The bumper mounts on some vehicles are gas pressured. DO NOT drill into them.

2.If all is clear under the L-base, mark the position of the five (5) mounting holes and drill them using a 3/8-in. drill bit. Drill all mounting holes from inside the vehicle. See figure 10.

3.Reinstall the L-base and align the mounting holes of the L-base with the holes you just drilled.

4.Position the T-bar on the end of the base support that runs parallel with the rear of the vehicle, and install a mounting bolt and washer through it and the L-base. See figure 10.

NOTE: When the lift is installed inside a trunk, it may be necessary to remove the motor housing and upper post for the trunk to close.

5. Install the four (4) remaining mounting bolts and washers onto the L-base.
