WARNING
To avoid personal injury and/or property dam-
age, permit only trained personnel to operate lift.
After reviewing these instructions, get familiar with lift controls by
running the lift through a few cycles before loading vehicle
on lift.
Observe and heed SAFETY and WARNING labels on the lift.
Note: The EL2 Model was designed for 131" or longer wheelbase
at the rated 14,000 lb. capacity.
1. Loading: Lift must be fully lowered and no one in service
bay while the vehicle is brought on lift.
2. If lift is equipped with rolling jacks, jacks must be fully
lowered and the rear jack pushed toward center of lift to
provide under car clearance.
WARNING
Engage runway locks before raising vehicle on
jacks! DO NOT operate lift while jacks are engaged with a
vehicle!
3. Stop vehicle when it contacts the front wheel stops. At all
times, be sure rear wheels are forward of the ramp/chocks
and the ramp/chocks will clear tires when the lift is raised,
