SAFETY PRACTICES

Read and understand this manual and all labels prior to


operating or servicing the scissors lift. All labels are
provided in accordance with ANSI Z535.4.

DANGER!

Do not work under lift without Maintenance Device! To avoid personal


injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the load is removed and the
scissors mechanism is securely blocked in the open position. See "Lift
Blocking Instructions" section.

DANGER!

Do not install the lift in a pit unless it has a bevel toe guard or other
approved toe protection. A shear point can exist which can cause severe
injury to the foot.

DANGER!

HIGH VOLTAGE!! Disconnect and/or lock out the electrical supply to the power
unit prior to any maintenance being performed.

DANGER!

Scissors lifts are designed individually for a specific load and application.
To avoid personal injury, do not change the load or application from the
original design.

6
SAFETY PRACTICES

WARNING!

To avoid personal injury, stand clear of scissors mechanism while the lift is
in motion.

WARNING!

NEVER stand, sit or ride on the lift!

WARNING!

All warning and information decals should be in place as outlined in the


“Label Identification” section. If decals are missing or damaged, they
should be replaced with new ones. Contact Autoquip for replacements.

WARNING!

Do not attempt to remove the velocity fuse until the maintenance block
securely supports the lift and all hydraulic pressure has been removed from
the lifting cylinders and hydraulic hoses. Failure to do so could results in
personal injury or death!

WARNING!

Lift platforms traveling below floor levels may create openings, and the
shape of the load and how the load is arranged on the lift may create a toe
hazard as the load passes the top edge of the pit. Both situations may
require guarding in accordance with Federal Regulations. Any such
guarding must be installed prior to operating the lift.

7
SAFETY PRACTICES

WARNING!

The hydraulic velocity fuse (HVF) must be properly installed! The HVF
is attached to the elbow fitting in the rod port of the cylinder. Do not use a
swivel fitting between the HVF and cylinder. If the HVF is installed
improperly, it will not lock up in the event of a catastrophic hydraulic line
break.

WARNING!

Use properly rated hoses only! Never use fittings or hoses that are not
properly rated for the intended use.

WARNING!

Never exceed the rated capacity of the lift! Overloading, or uneven


loading, could result in load instability and cause serious personal injury.

CAUTION!

Any time that the velocity fuses have been tripped, owner must investigate
the cause of the trip and ensure any necessary corrective actions have
been taken prior to resumption of normal lift operation. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.

CAUTION!

Spilled hydraulic fluid is very slippery, and may also present a fire hazard.
Clean up all spilled hydraulic fluid to prevent personal injury or equipment
damage.

8
SAFETY PRACTICES

NOTICE!

Do not continue to depress the “UP” button on the controller if the lift is not
raising or if the lift has reached the fully raised position. To do so may
result in permanent damage to the motor or pump.

NOTICE!

Never run the pump for more than a couple of seconds without pumping oil.
This applies to low oil conditions, improper motor rotation, running the
pump against the relief pressure after the lift is fully raised against the
physical stops, running overloaded beyond capacity, or running at reduced
speed because of pinched or obstructed hydraulic lines.

NOTICE!

Do not operate the power unit on relief for more than a few seconds. When
on relief, the valve will make a squealing sound.

NOTICE!

Precautions should be taken to prevent the introduction of contaminates


such as dirt or other foreign material into the system through open fittings,
pipes or disassembled components. Contamination will ruin the hydraulic
system.

NOTICE!

Use only approved oils in the lift. See “Specifications” section.

LOAD CAPACITY

The load capacity rating is stamped on a metal plate attached to one side of the lift.
This figure is a net capacity rating for a lift furnished with the standard platform. The
relief valve of the pumping unit has been set to raise the weight, plus a small amount for
overload. Where gravity roll-sections, special tops, etc, are installed on the lift after
leaving the plant, deduct the weight of these from the load rating to obtain the net
capacity.

DO NOT EXCEED RATED CAPACITY OF THE LIFT. Loading the lift beyond its rated
capacity is unsafe, will shorten the operational life of the lift, and will void its warranty.

14
SPECIFICATIONS

DANGER!

Do not make modifications to the lift without authorization


from the manufacturer. Autoquip cannot foresee and is
not responsible for injury or damage which results from
the unauthorized modifications or misuse of the lift.

UNBALANCED LOADING

The stabilization provided is basically for balanced loads. If special attachments extend
beyond the length and/or width dimensions of the platform, the end and/or side load
capacity is reduced 2% for each one-inch extension from the center. If the load is
rolling onto the platform (in any but the fully-lowered position) the end and/or side load
capacity is reduced by a 50% impact factor (i.e., divide the rated end/side load by 1.50
to establish an available “axle” load).

PUMP PRESSURE
This lift incorporates a positive displacement pump machined to a high degree of
accuracy and specially adapted to requirements of higher-pressure ranges over that of
a standard pump. Therefore, standard factory models of the same manufacture cannot
replace it.

The pump can operate efficiently at intermittent pressures up to 3200 PSI and
continuous duty to 2500 PSI. The safety relief valve in the pump assembly is factory-
set to stay within the parameters of the pump and lift requirements.

LIFT DUTY

Autoquip standard lift designs as described in the specifications typically include


intermittent duty motors and are designed to “cycle” (one complete “up” and one
complete “down” lift operation) no more frequently than every two minutes – or
approximately 60,000 times (cycles) per year. This is considered “normal” duty.

It is the responsibility of the user to notify Autoquip whenever a specific application is


likely to demand “above normal” duty from the lift - in excess of 60,000 cycles per year.
Above normal duty typically requires supplemental design features to enhance the
serviceable life of the lift & to avoid loss of warranty.

15
LIFT BLOCKING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING !

Only authorized personnel should perform inspection or


maintenance and service procedures. Unauthorized personnel
attempting these procedures do so at the risk of personal injury
or death.

DANGER !

Failure to properly adhere to lift blocking procedures is to risk


the sudden and uncontrolled descent of the lift during
maintenance or inspection. A falling lift can cause severe injury
or death.

This procedure describes the only factory-approved method of working under a lift.
Follow these instructions EVERY time you plan to reach or crawl beneath the lift to
perform service or maintenance – no matter how momentary that might be.

If the factory-provided maintenance devices are damaged or missing, stop immediately


and consult the factory for assistance. The manufacturer is not liable for your failure to
use the approved maintenance devices and procedures that have been provided.

1. All loads must be removed from the lift prior to engaging the maintenance
devices. These devices are designed to support an unloaded lift only. Failure to
remove the load from the lift prior to blocking could cause the failure of the
maintenance devices and allow the lift to fall unexpectedly. This can result in
personal injury or death, or permanent damage to the maintenance devices
and/or the lift.

2. Raise the lift to its fully raised position. If you do not, the maintenance devices
may not be able to be placed properly in their designed blocking position.

3. Locate all hinged maintenance locks permanently welded outside the base frame
on the roller end of the lift base legs. Both locks must be flipped over and resting
inside the base frame and thus in the roller path of the lift (See Figure 9).

4. Lower the lift platform until the leg rollers make contact with both maintenance
locks. Re-check to ensure that both devices are fully and properly engaged with
the leg rollers. If both left and right maintenance locks are not fully engaged the
lift could fall unexpectedly, resulting in permanent damage to the devices or the
lift.

16
LIFT BLOCKING INSTRUCTIONS

17
LIFT BLOCKING INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER !

If for any reason you are unable to lower the lift completely onto
the maintenance device(s), stop immediately and consult the
factory. Failure to properly use the factory approved maintenance
device(s) could result in severe injury or death.

5. Once the maintenance devices are properly and securely engaged, continue to
press the down button, valve or switch for an additional 5-10 seconds to
relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system (it could take longer in a pneumatic
system).

WARNING !

Failure to relieve operating system pressure could result in the


sudden and unexpected release of high-pressure fluids (or air)
during maintenance and/or repair of the lift and result in severe
injury or death.

6. Follow OSHA electrical lock-out/tag-out procedures. Disconnect and tag all


electrical and/or other power sources to prevent an unplanned or unexpected
actuation of the lift.

7. Once inspection or work is complete, reverse the performance of the steps


above to raise the lift off the maintenance devices and flip the devices back
into their designated storage positions outside the base frame.

DANGER !
HIGH VOLTAGE!! – Disconnect and/or lock out the electrical
supply to the power unit per OSHA regulations prior to any
installation or maintenance being performed.

18
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

Before installing the lift, read & follow the recommended


safety practices in the Safety Practices section. Failure to
follow these safety practices could result in death or serious
injury

FLOOR INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the installation area is clean before starting. Check the mounting
surface of the floor with a level or straight edge. If the floor is not level, add
shims or grout under the lift base frame along the entire perimeter of the base
to achieve a level and flat base installation. A level base will ensure proper
wheel tracking and smooth lift operation.

2. If the permanent electrical work is not complete, some means of temporary


lines with an on-off device for the power supply should be set up for testing
purposes.

3. Place the lift in the installation area and level the base frame per note #1.

NOTICE !
When moving the lift, do not attempt to pick it up by the
platform; it is hinged and could be damaged. Pick up the lift
from under the base frame ONLY using a strap sling.

4. Make temporary electrical connections and permanent hydraulic connections.


Raise the lift approximately one foot using the “UP” button. Then lower the lift
back to fully collapse, holding the “DOWN” button for approximately 60
seconds. Repeat this process five to seven times to bleed any air out of the
hydraulic system.

5. Raise the lift to the top of its travel and make positioning adjustments. Check
for the proper height. If needed, shim to the desired height. DO NOT “spot”
shim. Shim the full length of the base frame. This will prevent the frame from
sagging under an exceptionally heavy load.

19
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER!

Do not work under the lift without Maintenance Device! To avoid


personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the load
is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely blocked in
the open position and the appropriate OSHA lock-out/tag-out
procedure is followed . See "Lift Blocking Instructions" section.
6. The base frame of the lift has pre-drilled holes for lagging it securely to the floor.
Mark the holes, drill, and install with anchors. Lifts with oversize platforms have
minimum pull out requirements of 2,000 lbs. for each anchor.

7. Make permanent electrical connections and operate the lift through a few cycles.

PIT INSTALLATION -- MODELS WITH BEVEL TOE GUARDS.

DANGER!

Do not install the lift in a pit unless it has a bevel toe guard or
other approved toe protection. Failure to provide approved toe
protection could result in exposure to shear points and potential
severe injury to personnel.

1. Check the pit dimensions. Length and width should be 2" minimum longer and
wider than the lift platform. Pit depth should allow ½” for shims or grout.

2. Check the case entrance into the pit. The diameter should be 3". If the
permanent electrical work is not complete, some means of temporary lines with
an on-off device for the motor should be set up for testing purposes.

3. Make sure the installation area is clean before starting. Check the mounting
surface of the pit floor with a level or straight edge. If the floor is not level, add
shims or grout under the lift base frame along the entire perimeter of the base to
achieve a level and flat base installation. A level base will ensure proper wheel
tracking and smooth lift operation.

4. Lower the lift into the pit and check for proper height. The lift should be solid and
flush with the pit angle framing. If needed, shim to the desired height. DO NOT
“spot” shim. Shim the full length of the base frame. This will prevent the frame
from sagging under an exceptionally heavy load.

20
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTICE !
When moving the lift, do not attempt to pick it up by the
platform; it is hinged and could be damaged. Pick up the lift
from under the base frame ONLY using a strap sling.
5. Make temporary electrical connections and permanent hydraulic connections.
Raise the lift approximately one foot using the “UP” button. Then lower the lift
back to fully collapse, holding the “DOWN” button for approximately 60 seconds.
Repeat this process five to seven times to bleed any air out of the hydraulic
system.

6. Raise and lower the lift to make positioning adjustments and align the platform in
the pit with a proper clearance of ¾” minimum around the edges from the
platform to the pit angle.

DANGER!

Do not work under lift without Maintenance Device! To avoid


personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the load
is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely blocked in
the open position and the appropriate OSHA lock-out/tag-out
procedure is followed. See "Lift Blocking Instructions" section.
7. The base frame of the lift has pre-drilled holes for lagging it securely to the floor.
Mark hoes, drill, and install with anchors. Lifts with oversize platforms have
minimum pull out requirements of 2,000 lbs. for each anchor.

8. Make the permanent electrical connections and operate the lift through a few
cycles.

CLEAN UP
1. Clean up any debris from the area. A clean installation makes a good impression
and creates a much safer environment!

2. Touch-up paint is available from Autoquip for repair of damaged paint surfaces.

WARNING!

All DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION labels and informational


decals and plates must be intact and in place on the lift. Contact
an Autoquip representative if labels are missing or damaged.

pocket at the bottom and the Internal Horizontal Velcro strip at the top. See
Figure 12.

2. The skirt should be mounted to the platform sides to allow the skirt to extend
approximately 8” below the bottom of the platform, see Figure 12. At the Skirt
starting point, the skirt should have a Vertical Exterior Velcro strip and an
Internal Horizontal Velcro strip. Use the Horizontal Velcro strip with adhesive
back to attach the skirt to the platform sides, typical for all (4) platform sides.
Start the skirt 1/2” from Corner #1 and wrap the Toe Indicator Skirt ‘Clockwise‘
around the side of the platform. Keep the skirt smooth and tight during the
clockwise installation.

3. Before overlapping the skirt at Corner #1, insert the Weight Rods into the
weight rod pockets. (1) Weight Rod into Side ‘A’ pocket and (1) Weight Rod
into Side ‘B’ pocket. Check the opposite ends of each weight rod to insure the
weight rod is fully inserted into each weight rod pocket. Wrap the skirt around
Corner #1 and attach the Vertical Interior Velcro strip on Side ‘A’ to the Vertical
Exterior strip on Side ‘B’.

4. After installing the Weight Rods in Side A & Side B, we need to install Weight
Rods into Side ‘C’ and ‘D’. At Corner #3, on the OUTSIDE surface cut a 1”
(max.) Vertical slot in the TOP of the weight rod pocket. Insert weight rods in
this slot, (1) for Side ‘C’ and (1) for Side ‘D’. The un-cut portion of the weight
rod pocket will retain the weight rods.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!

Familiarize yourself with this operator’s manual before


operating this equipment.

1. Scissors lifts have maximum lifting capacity ratings (See the “Specifications”
section). The safety relief valve has been factory set to open at a point slightly
above the rated load and allows the oil to bypass into the reservoir. The safety
relief valve should not be adjusted for any reason as it could cause the
motor to prematurely burn out. Applying loads exceeding the rated capacity of
the lift may result in excessive wear and damage to the lift.

2. This type of lift is designed primarily for in-plant applications and is furnished with
a constant pressure foot switch or PUSH BUTTON controls. Actuating the "UP"
button will cause oil to enter the cylinders and the lift will rise.

3. When the desired height or upward travel of the platform is attained, removing
the operators’ foot or hand from the switch deactivates the “UP” circuit button.
The oil stops flowing and the upward movement will stop.

4. To lower the lift, activate the "DOWN" button. Opening the down control valve
allows the oil in the cylinders to flow through the down valve at a controlled rate
and return oil to the reservoir.

5. When the desired height or downward travel of the platform is attained,


removing the operator’s foot or hand from the switch deactivates the “DOWN”
circuit. The oil stops flowing from the cylinders and the downward movement
will stop.

WARNING !

Personnel should always maintain a safe operating distance of


at least 36” any time the lift is operated up or down.

CAUTION !
Do not operate the power unit on relief for more than a few
seconds. When on relief, the valve will make a squealing sound.

28
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
WARNING!

Before maintaining the lift, read & follow the recommended


safety practices in the Safety Practices section. Failure to follow
these safety practices could result in death or serious injury.
Normally scissors lifts will require very little maintenance. However, a routine
maintenance program could prevent costly replacement of parts and/or downtime.

DANGER!

Do not work under the lift without a Maintenance Device! To


avoid personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the
load is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely
blocked in the open position and the appropriate OSHA lock-
out/tag-out procedure is followed . See "Lift Blocking
Instructions" section.
Daily Inspection List (10 hours of operation):
 Check hydraulic reservoir fluid level. Hydraulic pump unit is supplied by others.
 Check for hydraulic fluid leaks.

BLEEDING AIR FROM THE SYSTEM

1. Bleed any air which may have been entrapped in the hydraulic system by raising
the lift to approximately 50% of its full travel, then lower back down completely.

2. Hold the “DOWN” button for approximately 60 seconds.

3. Repeat this process five or six times.

4. Should the above steps not correct the problem, contact Autoquip to obtain
instruction for further action.

5. Clean up any spilled oil. Used oil should be discarded as it may contain flushed
contaminates from the line.

31
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
WARNING!

Before maintaining the lift, read & follow the recommended


safety practices in the Safety Practices section. Failure to follow
these safety practices could result in death or serious injury.

CYLINDER REMOVAL AND REPACKING

1. Raise the lift to its full height and block securely. See “Lift Blocking Instructions”.

2. Cut off the electricity to the power unit (lock out-tag out).

3. Disconnect the cylinder hose at the power unit end and insert it into the oil-fill
hole of reservoir.

4. Loosen the setscrew or hex bolt in the cylinder upper leg clevis (otherwise known
as the Trunnion clevis).

5. Remove the cylinder pin from the upper leg clevis.

6. Lift the cylinder out of the leg assembly.

7. Push the piston rod into the cylinder to eject as much oil as possible into a
container.

8. Insert a Spanner wrench and turn the upper bearing assembly clockwise until the
tip of the retainer appears in the slot. Place a small screwdriver under the
retainer and turn it until the retainer is completely removed.

9. Be sure the hose port is open to allow air into the cylinder. Pull the piston rod out
to remove the upper bearing.

10. After all of the internal components have been removed, use a bright light to
inspect the inner walls of the barrel. Use a cylinder hone to remove any apparent
nicks or scratches. Clean and flush the barrel after honing.

11. Remove the piston head nut from the rod. The upper clevis and pin may be used
to prevent rotation of the rod while loosening. Remove the old piston.

12. Inspect the groove for nicks or scratches that could affect the seal or barrel walls;
remove as necessary.

13. Install the new piston, seals, and rod wiper.

32
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
14. Check the piston head nut for tightness and torque to 600-650 ft. lbs on 3 ½”
bore cylinders or 850-950 ft. lbs. on 4” bore cylinders. The upper clevis and pin
may be used to prevent the rotation of the rod while tightening.

15. Liberally lubricate the piston and seal with CLEAN grease or oil.

16. Reinsert the piston into the barrel, taking care not to pinch or nick the new seal.

17. Slip the bearing assembly into place and align the retainer hole with the slot in
the barrel.

18. Turn the bearing with the Spanner wrench until the retainer is reinserted
completely.

19. Pull up the rod and reinstall the upper clevis pin and setscrew.

20. Reconnect the cylinder hose.

21. Check that the lag bolts are secure after checking all pins and other mechanical
and hydraulic components.

22. Restore the oil level (see oil recommendations in the “Routine Maintenance”
section.

23. Turn on the electrical power and press the “UP” button. It may take a few
seconds to fill the empty cylinders. Raise the tilter approximately one inch and
remove the maintenance block.

24. Lower the lift completely and hold the “DOWN” button for 60 seconds to allow air
in the cylinders to bleed back into the tank.

25. Raise the lift to 25 – 50% of its full travel, then lower fully holding the “DOWN”
button for an additional 60 seconds. Repeat this step 8 – 10 times.

26. Check the oil level (see oil requirements).

27. Clean the oil fill breather cap.

PIPE THREAD SEALANT


Loctite PST #567 pipe thread sealant or equivalent is recommended. Do not use
Teflon tape. Tape fragments can cause malfunctioning of the hydraulic system.

33
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
VELOCITY FUSE REPLACEMENT

DANGER!

Do not attempt to remove the velocity fuse until the lift is


securely supported with the maintenance locking devices and all
hydraulic pressure has been removed from the lifting cylinders
and hydraulic hoses. Failure to follow these instructions could
result in personal injury or death!

Never attempt to take a velocity fuse apart and repair it. These are precision devices
that are factory assembled under exacting conditions. Velocity fuses should always be
replaced.

1. The arrow on the exterior surface of the velocity fuse shows the direction of the
restriction to the oil flow. The arrow should always point away from the cylinder.

2. Do not use Teflon tape on the threaded connections of a velocity fuse.


Tape fragments can cause malfunctioning of the fuse.

3. Check all fitting connections for hydraulic leaks and tighten as necessary.

HOSE ORIENTATION
To prevent damage to the cylinder hose and possible failure of lift, it is necessary to
establish a correct hose shape and pattern of movement as follows:

1. Raise the lift to its full height and block securely. See “Lift Blocking Instructions”.

2. Install one end of the new hose to the cylinder elbow fitting.

3. Since the hose is fixed at both ends, it is possible to put a twist in the hose that
will allow it to describe the same pattern each time the lift is operated. This twist
will allow the hose to travel about half way between the cylinder on the right side
and the inner leg on the right side.

4. Lower the lift carefully and check to see that the hose is free and clear of the
cylinder and the inner leg assembly. If not, twist the hose in the direction
necessary to clear it of any obstruction and then lock the swivel fitting securely.

34
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
WIRING AUTOQUIP "SUPER TORQUE' MOTORS
Because Autoquip "Super-Torque" motors actually deliver substantially more
horsepower than their nameplate rating, they must always be wired for heavier current-
draw than standard motors of the same nameplate rating. However, because of the
"Super-Torque" motors starting efficiency and superior running characteristics, circuit
components do not have to be as large as for standard motors of equal delivered
horsepower.

The following chart should be observed in connecting these motors to power


sources, remembering that, where 115-Volt operation is contemplated, the current-
draw is too heavy for plugging into ordinary lighting circuits. Heavy wire must be
used all the way to the power-source.

NOTE: For larger horsepower motors, consult factory.

TROUBLESHOOTING ANALYSIS
DANGER!

To avoid personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until


the load is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely
blocked in the open position. See "Lift Blocking Instructions"
section.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death, GUARDS, INTERLOCKS, and
SAFETY DEVICES must be restored to correct operation when
installing parts or making repairs.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION


Lift raises, then lowers back  The "Down" solenoid may not be seating.
slowly. Remove the solenoid coil and check again. If
the lift does not hold with the solenoid coil
removed, the down valve cartridge should be
removed and cleaned or replaced as necessary.

 The oil line, hose, or fitting may be leaking.


Check and repair if necessary.

 The “check valve” in the pump assembly may


not be seating. This is indicated by the pump
shaft and motor turning backward on their own
with no power applied. Generally, this condition
can be heard. Replace the pump assembly.

Lift lowers very slowly.  The down-solenoid is not operating properly due
to dirt or damage.

 Check for pinched tubing or hose. Where pipe


is used, check for obstruction in the line.

 The oil is extremely viscous due to low ambient


temperatures. Add or replace with lower weight
oil that stays thinner in cold conditions (5W-15,
etc.)

75
TROUBLESHOOTING ANALYSIS
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION
Lift does not raise.  The motor rotation for a 3-phase motor may be
reversed. Reverse only two motor electrical leads.

 Check for a line or hose leak.

 Check for oil shortage in the reservoir. Add oil as


necessary (See Oil Requirements in the “Routine
Maintenance” section.)

 The load may exceed the rating. (See the


“Specifications” section.) Remove the excess load.

 The suction screen may be clogged, starving the


pump. Remove and clean the screen. Drain and
replace the oil.

 The suction line may be leaking air due to a loose


fitting. Tighten as needed.

 The breather holes in the reservoir fill plug may be


clogged. Remove and clean.

 The voltage at the motor terminals may be too low


to run the pump with the existing load. Check by
measuring the voltage at the motor terminals, or as
near as possible, while the pump is running under
load. Reading the source voltage or pump-idling
voltage is meaningless. Inadequate or incorrect
wiring can starve the motor when the source
voltage is ample. Correct as necessary.

 The "Down" valve may be energized by faulty wiring


or stuck open. Remove the solenoid and check.

 The motor may be single phasing. Check wiring,


fuses, etc.

 The pump may be seized if motor is humming or


blowing fuses on overload protection devices.
Remove the pump. The pump should be able to be
rotated by hand. Check for cracks in the housing.

 The down solenoid valve stem may be bent,


causing the valve to be stuck open. Replace the
down solenoid valve.
76
TROUBLESHOOTING ANALYSIS

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION


Lift won’t lower.  The solenoid coil may be incorrectly wired,
burned out, not rated for the voltage, or the line
voltage may be excessively low. Check voltage
near the coil.

 The velocity fuse may be locked. Do not


attempt to remove the velocity fuse. The
following steps should be followed:

1. Remove the load from the lift. Inspect all


fittings, hoses, and other hydraulic components
for leads or damage.

2. If no leak or damage is noticed, attempt to


pressurize the lifting cylinder by depressing the
“UP” button on the controller for a few seconds.
Immediately up releasing the “UP” button,
depress the “DOWN” button. If the lift starts to
lower, continue pressing the “DOWN” button
until the lift is in the fully lowered position.

3. If the lift does not lower after trying Step 2,


wait approximately 10 – 15 minutes for the
pressure in the hydraulic system to equalize.
Then, depress the “DOWN” button until the lift is
in the fully lowered position.

4. Once the lift is in the fully lowered position,


bleed the air from the hydraulic system by
depressing the “DOWN” button. Hold the
“DOWN” button for approximately 60 seconds.
This step may need to be repeated several
times to fully remove the air in the system by
raising the lift to 50% of its travel and lowering.

 Should the above steps not correct the problem,


contact Autoquip to obtain instruction for further
action.

77
TROUBLESHOOTING ANALYSIS

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION


Lift seems bouncy during  Lower the lift to collapsed position and continue to
operation. hold “DOWN” button an additional 10-30 seconds to
bleed air from the cylinder. Do not confuse spongy
or jerky operation with small surges that may occur
when operating on rough or uneven floors

 Check for oil starvation.

Motor labors or heats  The voltage may be low. Check at the motor
excessively. terminals while the pump is running loaded, not at
the line source or while the pump is idling.
Inadequate wiring can starve the motor even when
the source voltage is ample.

 Most of Autoquip’s standard motors are rated for


intermittent duty (two minute run times with two
minute rests). If a single-phase motor is being run
more than 15 – 20 motor starts per hour, or a 3-
phase motor more than 200 starts per hour, the
problem may be motor over-heating.

 Running against relief pressure unnecessarily due to


over loaded lift or hitting physical stops.

 Failure to observe wiring diagram on nameplate for


proper voltage connections.

 The pump may be binding from oil starvation, which


develops high internal heat. Check for low oil level
or closed breather holes in the reservoir fill plug.
The pump can be irreparably damaged by oil
starvation and may have to be replaced.
