How to operate the Harmar Mobility AL160 Profile Vehicle Lift?

1. Wiring the harness- Install the wiring harness to ensure there is the power to the scooter lift during the installation process which allows the motor to do the lifting process. If you do not use a wiring harness, you must use a battery pack
2. Motor testing and troubleshooting- When troubleshooting, it is always ideal to test both the current and the voltage or run the motor with a good quality battery or power source
3. Optimizing Hitch-height- Hitch height is the distance of the vehicle’s hitch receiver to the ground. Changing the height of the mobility lift helps you optimize the vehicle’s ground clearance. It ensures that the platform lies flat when it reaches the end of its travel
4. Installation of Hitch Adaptor-
   • Attach the hitch adaptor to the hitch-post
   • Attach the hitch-post to the lift
   • Insert the hitch adaptor into the receiver on the vehicle’s hitch
   • Secure the adaptor according to the hitch class
5. Swing Away or Hitch Post Installation-
   • Fasten the hitch adaptor to the vehicle’s hitch
   • Fasten the swing away or hitch post to the hitch adaptor
   • Position the open box behind the vehicle and connect the wiring harness together
   • Stand the lift up, use the switch to line up the hitch-post or swing away with the lift and fasten in place
   • Note: Only class 2 adaptors or greater can be used with swing-away
6. Setting the hold-down foot height- It is very important to ensure the proper pressure to the scooter and for this hold-down foot must be adjusted in a correct way.

How to adjust Hold-Down Foot Height?

• Run both nuts down onto the hold-down foot, so the foot will not catch onto the scooter’s deck. Make sure the platform is on the ground.
• Drive the scooter onto the platform, from the driver’s side to the other side Drive until the rear wheels are positioned in the cradle bar assembly
• Stop when the rear tires contact the ramps of the platform
• Raise the platform until you hear the motor clutch, which indicates the top of travel
• The hold-down foot should be above the scooter’s deck
• Raise both nuts on the hold-down foot and allow the foot to rest on top of the scooter’s deck
• While holding the stationary nut, run the bottom nut up to the hold-down arm and hand-tighten
• Lift the hold-down arm up to eliminate slack and to ensure the arm is at its highest point
• There should be pressure on the deck of the scooter and the bottom lock washer should be compressed from the bottom nut
• Adjust the top nut 21/4" to 2 1/2" above the top of the hold-down arm. Once the measurement has been set, DO NOT adjust the top nut or the stationary nut
• If the hold-down foot is set too loose, the foot may not have enough pressure to hold the scooter down. If too tight, the foot may cause damage to the scooter and/or lift.
  Note - Be sure that the frame of the scooter is in contact with the platform. The front-wheel may have to be rotated

7. Wheel Cradle Adjustments: Add or replace a rear wheel cradle on the AL160 outside vehicle lift. Adjust the wheel cradle for the tire size.
   Note- Read the instructions and guidelines provided by the manufacturer properly. Do not attempt these procedures without the proper knowledge.
