Installation and Warranty
It includes sections on installation site surveys, hints, and warranty information to ensure proper use and maintenance of the equipment.
Double Long (DL) Configuration Rules
  • DL travel equals the travel of the base lift.
  • Maximum platform width can be up to 24" wider than the minimum platform width of the base lift.
  • Minimum platform length is calculated as (2 x base frame length + 2").
  • DL side load capacity is twice the base unit side load capacity, reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform width.
  • DL end load capacity is the same as the base unit, reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform length.
  • Lowered height may increase for unevenly loaded platforms.
Double Wide (DW) Configuration Rules
  • Units must have equal capacity, travel, width, and length base frame.
  • DW capacity is 160% of a single unit's catalog capacity.
  • DW travel is the base unit travel minus 2".
  • DW lowered height is base unit lowered height plus 2".
  • Maximum platform width and length can be up to 24" wider and longer than the minimum dimensions of the base units.
  • DW side loads are calculated as (base unit side load x 2) x 60%, reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform width.
  • DW end load capacity is twice that of a single unit, reduced by 2% per inch increase over the minimum platform length.
Ultra High Cycle Lifts
  • Designed for applications exceeding millions of cycles, offering accuracy, durability, and lower maintenance costs.
  • Three systems to consider: lifting structure, position control, and hydraulic power unit.
  • Lifting mechanism uses precision tolerances, sliders instead of wheels, and special grade alloy steel for durability.
  • Position control offers three levels of accuracy, with optional user and network interfaces for flexibility.
  • Hydraulic power unit provides speeds up to 40 feet per minute, with features to reduce shock and maintenance.
Specification Table for Ultra High Cycle Lifts
  • UHC-3032: 32" travel, 3000 lbs capacity, platform size 36" x 50" to 72" x 90".

Lite Tables (LT) and Lite Table Double-Scissors (LTD) Series Lifts
  • Designed for lighter capacity applications, enhancing operator performance by reducing bending and lifting.
  • Specification Table for Single & Double Lifts includes models like LT-1036 and LTD-1036 with varying capacities and platform sizes.
Production (P) Series Lifts
  • Popular series for manufacturing applications, offering a wide array of models with different capacities and platform sizes.
