A. Load vehicle such as 3/4 ton truck or van onto lift.
B. Cable Adjustment:
1. Slowly jog the power unit, allowing two seconds
between jogs, until a latch or latches are heard
engaging. Check all corners to see which latch(es)
have engaged. The corner(s) that are engaged will
not be adjusted. Proceed to one of the corners that
has not engaged and loosen the cable jam nut. Turn
the cable adjustment nut clockwise, holding the
cable with the square end of the threaded portion
under the top plate, Fig. 30, until you hear the latch
engage, then stop. Lock down the adjustment nut
with the jam nut.
2. Proceed to the other corners until all latches have
clicked into locking position.
3. Raise and lower lift to check for lock engaging
sequence. The sound of lock engagement should
sound simultaneously, the front cables may click
slightly before the rear to compensate for the
loaded condition.
