Installation Instructions
⚠️ WARNING!! Improper installation can cause accelerated wear, resulting in catastrophic failure which may cause property damage and / or bodily injury. Manufacturer will assume no liability for loss or damage of any kind, expressed or implied, resulting from improper installation or use of this product.
- Raise lift so that the runways & extensions are at a comfortable work height. Ensure Ramps are fully pivoted downward, not contacting the floor, allowing for enough clearance to mount Alignment Spacers.
- Mount Alignment Spacer to the top of each 24" Runway Extension by aligning the threaded studs on the underside of each Spacer to the holes on the Runway Extension. Carefully, lower the Spacer into place, ensuring the two front holes also align with the threaded holes on the Runway Extension. (Refer to Figure 1 description).
- Once the Alignment Spacer is properly positioned, secure the Spacer to the Runway Extension by reusing the M12 Flange Bolts for the threaded holes and M12 Nuts & Washer to the underside of the Runway Extension, using access holes and a ratchet socket extension. (Refer to Figure 1 description).
- Repeat above steps for the other side. Ensure all connection hardware is properly tightened.
