ASSEMBLY
(cont.)
5. Insert Lift Pedal into Sleeve and attach with supplied
bolt.
6. Install Positioning Handle into frame and secure
using the provided pins (2).
7. Attach two Wheel Brackets to sides of Lift Platform
(ref. Figure 3).
8. After assembly, check to ensure that lift rolls, lifts
and locks, and that the pump operates smoothly
before putting into service. Familiarize yourself with
how the Height Locking Lever, Lift Pedal, and the
Height Unlocking Lever operate prior to loading the
lift. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies
with authorized replacement parts only (ref.
Replacement Parts, pg. 6). Lubricate as instructed
in Maintenance Section.
MOWER LIFT OPERATION
1. Adjust Wheel Bracket width for mower track.
2. Drive mower onto Wheel Brackets.
WARNING: Use only on hard, level surfaces
!
capable of sustaining rated capacity loads.
3. Leave mower transmission in neutral, close
Hydraulic Release Valve and carefully pump jack
until mower reaches desired height. Final height
must correspond with the locking teeth on the
Height Locking Lever.
4. Carefully turn the Release Knob counterclockwise
until the Lift Platform engages the Height Locking
Lever, then close the Release Knob by turning it
fully clockwise. Do not work around or under load
unless Height Locking Lever is properly locked.
5. Secure the mower by setting the parking brake,
putting transmission in gear and chocking the
wheels.
CAUTION: Be sure all tools and personnel are
!
clear before lowering load. Only attachments and/
or adapters supplied by the manufacturer shall be
used with this device.
6. To lower the Lift Platform, release the mower's
parking brake, place transmission in neutral and
remove chocks. Pump the Lift Pedal several times
to disengage the Height Locking Lever, then
depress the Height Unlocking Lever pedal.
Carefully turn the Release Knob counterclockwise to
lower the load slowly.
MAINTENANCE
Keep lift clean and well lubricated. Apply a couple of
drops of light machine oil to all pivoting joints as
needed. Thoroughly wipe up excess oil.
NOTICE: Use only a quality grade hydraulic jack oil.
Avoid mixing different types of fluid and NEVER use
brake fluid, turbine oil, transmission fluid, motor oil or
glycerin. Improper fluid can cause failure of the jack
and the potential for sudden and immediate loss of
load. Mobil DTE 13M or equivalent is recommended.
Adding oil
1. To check hydraulic oil level, unload lift, lower Lift
Platform completely, then remove Hydraulic Unit
from lift. Place Hydraulic Unit upright on a stable,
level surface. Locate and remove Oil Filler Plug.
2. Ensure the oil level is even with the Oil Filler Plug
hole. Reinstall the Oil Filler Plug, then install
Hydraulic Unit onto receiver. Secure with provided
bolts.
Changing oil
For best performance and longest life, completely
replace the hydraulic fluid supply at least once per
year.
1. With Lift Platform fully lowered, remove Hydraulic
Unit from lift. Place Hydraulic Unit upright on a
stable, level surface. Remove the Oil Filler Plug.
2. Lay the unit on its side and drain hydraulic fluid into
a suitable container.
NOTICE: Dispose of used hydraulic fluid responsibly
in accordance with local environmental regulations.
3. When refilling, ensure the fluid level is even with the
Oil Filler Plug hole. Reinstall the Oil Filler Plug, then
install Hydraulic Unit onto receiver.
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points,
axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure
that wheels, casters and pump assemblies move
freely.
Cleaning
Check the pump piston and Ram occasionally for
signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe
with an oily cloth.
Storage
When lift is not in use, Lift Platform should be stored in
the fully retracted position.
