FOUNDATION and ANCHORING REQUIREMENTS
1. Concrete shall have compression strength of at least 3,000 PSI and a minimum thickness of 4" in order to achieve
a minimum anchor embedment of 3-1/4". NOTE: When using the standard supplied 314" x 5-1/2" long anchors, if
the top of the anchor exceeds 2-1/4" above the floor grade, you DO NOT have enough embedment.
2. Maintain a 6" minimum distance from any slab edge or seam. Hole to hole spacing should be a minimum 6-1/2"
in any direction. Hole depth should be a minimum of 4".
3. DO NOT install on asphalt or other similar unstable surface. Columns are supported only by anchoring to floor.
4. Using the horseshoe shims provided, shim each column base as required 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.
Torque anchors to 130 ft-Ibs. Shim thickness MUST NOT exceed 1/2" when using the 5-1/2" long anchors
provided with the lift.
5. If anchors do not tighten to 130 ft-Ibs. installation torque, replace the concrete under each column base with a
4' x 4' x 6" thick 3,000 PSI minimum concrete pad keyed under and flush with the top of existing floor. Allow
concrete to cure before installing lifts and anchors (typically 2 to 3 weeks).
ANCHORING TIPS
1. Use a concrete hammer drill with a carbide tip, solid drill bit the same diameter as the anchor, 3/4" -
(.775 to .787 inches diameter). Do not use excessively worn bits or bits which have been incorrectly sharpened.
2. Keep the drill in a perpendicular line while drilling.
3. Let the drill do the work. Do not apply excessive pressure. Lift the drill up and down occasionally to remove
residue to reduce binding.
4. Drill the hole to depth of 2" deeper than the length of anchor. NOTE: Drilling thru concrete (recommended) will
allow the anchor to be driven thru the bottom of foundation if the threads are damaged or if the lift will need to be
relocated.
5. For better holding power blow dust from the hole.
6. Place a flat washer and hex nut over threaded end of anchor, leaving the nut almost flush with the top of the
anchor bolt. Carefully tap anchor into hole. Do not damage threads. Tap anchor into the concrete until nut and
flat washer are against base plate. Do not use an impact wrench to tighten! Tighten the nut, two or three turns on
average after the concrete has cured (28-day cure). If the concrete is very hard only one or two turns maybe
required.
Drill holes using 3/4"
carbide tipped
masonry drill bit per
ANSI standard
B94.12.1977
Clean hole. Run nut down just
below impact section
of bolt. Drive anchor
into hole until nut and
washer contact base.

such as heaters, building supports, electrical lines etc (Fig. 4).
Fig. 4
3. DEFECTIVE CONCRETE: Visually inspect the site where the lifts will be installed and check for cracked or
defective concrete. (Details on Page 4)
4. _ FLOOR REQUIREMENTS: The lift should be installed on a 3000 PSI concrete with minimum of 4" thickness.
The Floor should be level with -in gradients of 51/4" within area of the two columns = 135" x 18").
(See Details for Foundation Anchoring Requirements $ Anchoring Tips on Page 4)

TP9KAC/TP9KSC
July 2014
STEP 2: (Unloading and Unpacking)
1. After unloading the lift, place it near the intended installation location:
2. Remove the shipping bands and packing materials from the unit.
3. Remove the packing brackets and bolts holding the two columns together. (Do not discard bolts, they may
be used in the assembling of the lift )
4. Takeout the up -rights, lifting arms, pads, accessory box, hoses, etc, from the column. Check the quantity of
every item with the parts list. If any missing, please contact with your dealer at once.
STEP 3: (Site Layout)
1. Determine which side will be the approach side.
2. Now determine which side you prefer the power unit to be located on. The MAIN
column has the power -unit mounting bracket attached to the side (Fig. 5).
Note: the power unit column can be located on either side. It is helpful to try and
locate the power side on the driver side of the vehicle when loaded on the lift, in
order to save steps during operation.
3. Once a location is determined, use a carpenter's chalk line to layout a grid for
the post locations. (See Fig. 3)
Fig. 5
4. After the post locations are marked, use a chalk or crayon to make an outline of the posts on the floor at
each location using the post base plates as a template.
5. Double check all dimensions and make sure that the layout is perfectly square.
STEP 4: (Installing the MAIN Column)
1. Before proceeding, double check measurements and make certain that the bases of each column are
square and aligned with the chalk line.
2. Assemble the uprights to the columns. Raise the columns to a vertical position (See Fig.6 )
Fig. 6
s
TP9KAC/TP9KSC
July 2014
3. Using the base plate on the MAIN column as a guide, drill each anchor hole in the concrete approximately
51/2" deep using a rotary hammer drill and 3/4" concrete drill -bit. To assure full holding power, do not ream the
hole or allow the drill to wobble. (See Anchoring Details on Page 4)
4. After drilling, remove dust thoroughly from each hole using compressed air and/or wire brush. Make certain
that the column remains aligned with the chalk line during this process.
5. Assemble the washers and nuts on the anchors then tap into each hole with a block of wood or rubber
hammer until the washer rests against the base plate. Be sure that if shimming is required that enough
threads are left exposed.
6. Using a level, check column plumb for every side (Fig. 8). If shimming is required, use 3/4" washers or shim
stock, placing shims as close as possible to the hole locations. This will prevent bending the column base
plates.
7. With the shims and anchor bolts in place, tighten by securing the nut
base then turning 2-3 full turns clockwise. Or tighten anchor bolts to 130
of torque. DO NOT use an impact wrench for this procedure.
Fig. 9
Fig. 10 Fig. 8
STEP 5: (Mounting the OFFSIDE Column and the OVERHEAD BEAM)
NOTE: Install Overhead Beam to top of columns BEFORE drilling anchors for Offside column to ensure
that the column can be properly plumbed and level.
1. Position the OFFSIDE column at the designated chalk locations.
2. Using bolts provided, construct the 2 piece Overhead Beam into a one (Fig.9). Using a lifting device, raise
the Overhead Beam and position on top of the column. Bolt it to the columns using the bolts, nuts and
washers (Fig. 10).
3. Using a tape measure to measure the distance between the opposite corners of the base plate on the
columns. Equal values will insure the lifting arms will be in square.
4. Secure OFFSIDE column to the floor following the same procedures as outlined in STEP 4.

STEP 6: (Mounting the POWER UNIT)
1. Attach the power unit to the POWERSIDE COLUMN using bolts, nuts and washers supplied (Fig. 11).
2. Remove the vent plug from the power unit and fill the reservoir with
hydraulic oil. Make sure the funnel used to fill the power unit is clean.
Suggestion: Use AW 32, or 46 Non -Detergent Non -Foaming Anti -Wear
Hydraulic Oil SAE-10 (Texaco HD46 or equal). The unit will
holds approximately ten quarts of fluid.
Fig. 11
STEP 7: (Routing the EQUALIZER CABLES)
1. Raise and lock each carriage on the first safety latch engagement. It is approximately 30" high.
2. Make sure that the safety locks on each column are fully engaged before attempting to route equalizer
cables.
3. Be sure each carriage is at the same height by measuring from the top of the base to the bottom of the
carriage. This difference should be within 1/4".
Fig. 12
Fig. 13
Fig. 14
4. Route the first cable. (See Fig 12-15) Screw the nut on the cable stud so that half thread pass through the
nut. Pull the other end of the cable and screw the nut on it also. Then tighten both nuts.

STEP 10: (Electrical connection)
Make the Electrical hookup to the power unit (220V Single Phase).
Important. the wiring must comply with local code. Have a certified electrician make the electrical hook-up to the
power unit. Use separate circuit for each power unit. Protect each circuit with time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
For 208V-230V single phase, use 20 amp fuse.
Warning: Never operate the motor in line voltage less than 208V. Motor damage may occur. Also, Motor
cannot run on 50hz without a physical change to motor.
STEP 11: (Checking running)
Do not place any vehicle on the lift at this moment. Cycle the lift up and
down several times to ensure latches click together and all air is
removed from the hydraulic system. To lower the lift, both latch
releases must be manually released (Fig.20). Latches will
automatically reset once the lift ascends approximately 17 " from base.
If latches click out of sync, tighten the equalization cable on the one
that clicks first.
THE LIFT IS NOW READY FOR USE.

YEARLY MAINTENANCE
• Grease rub blocks and column surface contacting rub blocks
• Change the hydraulic fluid. Good maintenance procedure makes it mandatory to keep hydraulic fluid clean. No
hard fast rules can be established; -operating temperature, type of service, contamination levels, filtration, and
chemical composition of fluid should be considered. If operating in dusty environment shorter interval may be
required.
Only a trained maintenance expert should perform the following items.
• Replace hydraulic hoses
• Replace chains and rollers.
• Replace cables and sheaves.
• Replace or rebuild air and hydraulic cylinders as required.
• Replace or rebuild pumps / motors as required.
• Check hydraulic and air cylinder rod and rod end (threads) for deformation or damage.
• Check cylinder mount for looseness and damage.
Relocating or changing components may cause problems. Each component in the system
must be compatible; an undersized or restricted line will cause a drop in pressure. All valve,
pump, and hose connections should be sealed and / or capped until just prior to use. Air hoses
can be used to clean fittings and other components. However, the air supply must be filtered

L421 FOUR -POST LIFT RACK SITE REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: Use the diagram on page 2 (standard installation) or page 3 (installation with
runway extensions) to determine if the selected site is suitable for the
installation of the L421.
Overall dimensions of standard lift are 12 feet 318 inches by 20 feet 10 1/2 inches (3667 x 6363 mm).
• The length is from front leg base plate to end of approach ramp when the lift is completely lowered.
Suggested minimum site for standard lift is 15 feet 3 318 inches by 24 feet 9 112 inches (4658 x 7556 mm).
• A smaller or larger site maybe necessary depending on the type of alignment equipment used. DSP600
Sensors require more space at the front of the lift and will require a larger bay depth, refer to the
appropriate DSP600 Site Requirements.
Minimum concrete floor specifications are 4 inches (102 mrrl) thick with a 3000 PSI (206.8 bar) rating.
• Thickness of concrete should be measured and verified for installation location.
• The lift must not be installed on asphalt or other similar unstable surfaces.
• The bases require the floor to be free of joints for an area measuring 31 inches (787 mm) squared,
centered around the front bases and 20.5 inches (521 mm) squared, centered around the rear bases.
The edge of concrete slab must be at least 8 inches (203 mm) from the outside edge of the front posts.
• Maximum floor variation between any two posts is 3 inches (76 mm). Larger vehicle ground clearance
may be required for lifts with increased front to rear floor variations.
• If installing over basement or near seams and cracks, refer to Form 4963T, Anchoring Guide, Concrete
Requirements, and Replacement Pads for Hunter Lifts.
SEISMIC: It is the responsibility of the builder to determine the code used by the local
jurisdiction. To meet 1997 Uniform Building Code for seismic Zone 4, concrete
floor specifications are 10 1/8 inches (257 mm) thick with a 3000 PSI (206.8
bar) rating and anchoring of lift requires use of epoxy anchors, 20-1730-1, to
specified anchor embedment depth with special inspection of anchor
installation in accordance with section 1701 of code. Zone 3 requires the same,
except specified floor thickness is 8 1/4 inches (210 mm): Greater certified
strength may reduce the slab thickness, contact Hunter for details.
Measure the ceiling height of the area in which the lift is to be installed and verify the dimensions meet
the minimum requirements.
• Take into consideration any ceiling mounted obstructions such as heaters, fans, etc.
1 of 3
Power Requirements: 208-230 VAC, single phase power, 20 Amp draw available at motor
Wiring and circuit breakers should be sized according to local electrical codes to provide 20 Amp draw
available at the motor.
• Availability of specified power is necessary to install lift rack. Temporary power connection is acceptable.
Air Requirem
ants: 90-150 PSI (6.2-10.3 bar)
NOTE: Electric and air service connect to the power unit located on left front post.
Measure the selected site and compare to the minimum dimensions shown.
• Any dimension less than the minimum should be brought to the customer's attention along with an
explanation of any problems that could result.
• The lift must be positioned with consideration given to ceiling obstruction limitations and necessary
working area allowed between the lift and wall(s).

for Wunter'Lifts
The floor;of;lhe fnstallatiomsite must.meet the: requirements of the lift to be Installed. The floormusl be poured
concrete per Hunter specifirations'to'pr`ovid e:necess'ary. strength and durability. follow the anchoring guidelines
-to secure :the lift to the concrete floor.'
Classification of Hdhtee Lifts
Many models of Hunter tifts rely on ;anchors; aril consequently the concrele.floor, to keep the lift stable and:
;upright. 'It Imperative that these types of Ilftsare properly anchored to ccncrete;lhafis sound and within Hunter
speafications: Hunterrconcrete specifications consist of strength an8; thickness requiremebts,-'along with`
limitations on'the prozimfty of cracks'toancliers and & number'of seams that caribe found around'Ihe lift:
The following lifts rely on -the concrete for structural integrity:
• 2-Post above, ground models (L202,1201j
• Open front 4=post models.(L451, L451L, L441i L421,�L,401)
• Some parallel ogram models'{RM)
The remaining models of Hunter Lifts still must be installed on"a, concrete ftoor'(as specif ed); but tliey do not rely
on the concrete for primary, stability:.
• Scissor models (RX49; RX191, RX40, RX10L,-RX-12, RX-127L, RX BMW RXDC)
• Some parallelogram models(RLlHD, RL, RMwiauxiliary bases)
• Power floor rack models (RJM,,RKM RJi RK)
• Closed front 47post mortals (L454, L454L, L444 L424,;L404, 40 DC„ 40BMW' 4PMB)
Anchoring Guidelines
Lifts that,rely on the concrete for primary stability to keep the lift stable'and upright also require that the anchors
be secured into'a solid piece of concrete: If the anchor issecured.in a slab that,is too thin'or placed too close to a
crack or, joint, anchor failure is morelike-lyto,occur. Anchor, failure;can he in_ a few ways: the anchor canfail
to tighten, the anchor can loosen over'time,-orthe anchor can fracturelhe concrete in a cone shape.around'ftselF:
Definitions of Concrete Defects
,A hole is an anchor or,hole,left from aprevious installation: Pound 6xisting anchors' through and fill'with grout.
.A crack is random and ,does<not effectively div de.the slab If a crack has opened -up to fornfa gap or if thesides
oLthe crack are uneven, the crack must.be conslderetl'a t:,
A_ joint is an Intentional separalton;betweenslabsao allow: for expansion and contraction (such as:a saw cuti
cons truction:joint, bXodhsiorrjoint or seam)., The edge of the concrete slab is:
also.considered a:joint's
