Non-Seismic Lifts:
Drill (10) 3/4" dia. holes in concrete floor using holes in
column base plate as a guide. See Fig. 4 for hole depth,
hole spacing, and edge distance requirements.
CAUTION
DO NOT install on asphalt or other similar
unstable surfaces. Columns are supported only by
anchors in floor.
IMPORTANT
Using the horse shoe shims provided,
shim each column base until each column is plumb. If
one column has to be elevated to match the plane of
the other column, full size base shim plates should be
used (Reference FA5112 Shim Kit or FA5208 for seismic
lift shims). Recheck columns for plumb. Tighten anchor
bolts to an installation torque of 110 ft-lbs (149 Nm). Shim
thickness MUST NOT exceed 1/2" (13mm) when using the
5-1/2" (140mm) long anchors provided with the standard
lifts, Fig. 5. Adjust the column extensions plumb.
If anchors do not tighten to 110 ft-lbs (149 Nm) installation
torque, replace concrete under each column base with a
4' x 4' x 6" (1219 x 1219 x 152mm) thick 3000 PSI (20684 kPa)
minimum concrete pad keyed under and flush with the top
of existing floor. Let concrete cure before installing lifts
and anchors. For seismic lifts, contact customer service.

NOTE: If more than 2 horse shoe shims are used at any of
the column anchor bolts, pack non-shrink grout under the
unsupported area of the column base. Insure shims are held
tightly between the baseplate and floor after torquing anchors.
NOTE: Use rectangular

or silicon cement to

7a. Overhead Assembly: Fig. 11: Adjust overhead to
appropriate dimension. Install (4) 3/8"-16NC x 3/4" HHCS &
3/8"-16NC Flanged Locknuts, do not tighten. Slide Switch
Box over switch bar ensuring knock out holes face the
power unit column, Fig. 7 and Fig. 8. Use (2) 1/4"-20NC x
3/4" lg. HHCS, 1/4"-20NC Nuts and 1/4" Star Washers to
mount switch box to overhead, see Fig. 11. For SPOA10
Extra Narrow Bay Setting installation, see step 7b, all
others go to step 7c.
7b. For Extra Narrow Bay installation only: Cut off 11"
(279mm) from the length of the bar and cushion on the end
opposite the 1/4" mounting hole(s). Continue to step 7c.
7c. Continued Overhead Assembly:
For single phase and three phase lifts with push button
control box: Insert 1/4"-20NC x 2-3/4" HHCS through
pivot hole in end of switch bar. Insert opposite end of bar
through slot in switch mounting bracket. Then secure
HHCS and Switch Bar to overhead as shown, Fig. 11, using
(2) 3/4" (19mm) spacers and 1/4"-20NC Locknut. Tighten
Hex bolt leaving 1/16" (1.6mm) gap between the spacer and
the overhead assembly.
8. Overhead Installation: Install overhead assembly to
Mounting Bracket with (2) 3/8"-16NC x 3/4" Flanged HHCS,
(2) 3/8"-16NC Flanged Serrated Locknut, Fig. 6. Use middle
holes for SPO9/SPO10 and outside holes (marked L for Left
and R for Right) for SPOA7/SPOA9/SPOA10NB/SPOA10.
Tighten bolts at center of overhead assembly.
