Column and Yoke Assembly:
A. Place the power unit column at the left front corner of the
lift. The hydraulic cylinder connection in the left runway
should be visible from this corner. Position remaining three
columns.

Latch Bar
LATCH BAR IN COLUMN
B. Retain sheave pin with (2) M10-16 bolts and sheave pin
retainer. Attach each cable to column top plate with spacer,
nut, and jam nut, Fig. 8. Install rubber sheave guard on each
yoke end, Fig. 8. Roping diagram shows a view of completed
roping, Fig. 9.
C. Thread the jam nut down the threaded stud as far
as possible. Stick rubber bumper to bottom of latch
bar, see Fig. 7. Place the latch bar in the back of the column,
Fig. 5.
D. Place FRL Bracket on top of power unit column. Guide the
threaded stud through the hole in the column top plate and
bracket, Fig. 6. Then thread the adjustment nut down the
threaded stud until the nut and top plate are flush, Fig 6.
Repeat for other columns.
E.
Start yoke end into the column, allowing slider bolt holes to
stay exposed, Fig. 7. Then bolt sliders onto each side of the
yoke end with M8-12 counter sunk screws. When both sliders
are attached, push column toward yoke end until sliders
touch latch bar.
F.
Raise latch bar and column above sliders and move column
toward yoke until the sliders contact the back of the column.
Lower the latch bar into the sliders. Tighten latch bar jam nut
against column top plate. Run latch bar adjustment nut down
and tighten. The latch bar should engage the sliders for at
least 1" (25mm) when the lift is completely lowered. Repeat
this procedure for each yoke end and column.
G. Install yoke end sheaves and plastic spacers, Fig. 8. A plastic
spacer is placed on each side of the sheave, inset Fig. 8.
Note: Failure to install plastic spacer will result in premature
failure and void warranty.
IMPORTANT
Be sure cable is located in the sheave groove.
