Installing the Platform
Step 1
Step 3
The mounting bolts, nuts and spacers that
secure the platform to the lift carriage are
packaged in the small parts box. Begin by
locating these pieces and setting aside.
Align the four mounting holes and insert a ½”
x 3” bolt into each hole. The upper holes
have a spacer that must be placed in
between the carriagne flange and platform
leg. Install the locknut on each bolt and
tighten sufficiently (approx. 50 lb-ft.).
Step 2
Position the platform by aligning the support
legs with the carriage flanges that protrude
from the front cover.
Step 4
Plug in the harness for the platform safety
pan and unplug the safety pan jumper on the
controller (ref pg 5). Secure the harnesses
under the clip on top of the carriage flange.

Installing the Outer Guard Panels
Step 1
Step 3
Remove the hexbolts on the corners of the
platform. Insert the guard panel posts into
the pockets in the platform. The smooth side
of the guard panels should face in towards
the center of the platform.
Plug in the harness for the platform control
box. Secure the harnesses under the clip on
top of the carriage flange.
If you have a 90 degree exit platform, install
the end guard panel using the provided
bracket and bolt to inner guard panel.
Installing Fixed
Ramp
Step 1
• Position the ramp after the lift is in its final
location.
• Maintain a gap of 3/8” to 3/4” between the
ramp and platform.
• Drill a pilot hole into the concrete and
fasten using supplied concrete lags through
ramp flanges.
Step 2
Install the platform control box on the rear
guard panel using screws and nuts through
the panel.

Installing Auto-folding Ramp (optional)
Step 1
Step 3
Install the ramp roller guide on the side of the
lift tower using the screws already installed in
the panels.
Attach the ramp to the pivot tabs using
shoulder bolts and locking nuts. Tighten the
nuts until they seat against the bolt shoulder.
Step 4
Attach the ramp roller arm by bolting it to the
underside of the ramp.
Step 2
Attach the two ramp pivot tabs to the lower
landing sides of the platform. Reinsert the
hex bolts, one of which will go through the
guard panel post, and tighten.
The ramp roller should align and make
contact with the ramp roller guide.

Step 4 (800 or taller models)
Taller lifts must have the top of the lift
tower anchored into a solid surface to
ensure running clearances remain
constant.
Anchoring the Lift
Anchors
Harmar recommends securing the lift using
the concrete anchors provided. If you
purchase you own floor anchors they must be
3/8” minimum of sufficient length. All four
floor anchors must be installed correctly
in accordance to their instructions.
There are two options for anchoring the top of
the tower:
1) For lifts going up to a landing such as a
deck or porch, the optional tower brace is
the preferred method. Instructions for the
brace are packaged with it.
Step 1
• Position the lift in its final location.
• Verify that it is level and perpendicular to its
surroundings and all running clearances are
the proper dimension.
• Shim if necessary.
Step 2
Use the lift’s base as a template. Drill 4 holes
into the concrete making sure that the holes
are deep enough to accept the anchors.
2) For lifts that are placed with the back of
the tower against a solid wall such as
inside of a hoistway, drilling two holes
through the top tower cross brace and
anchoring is preferred.
Tip: Concrete dust may have settled into
the holes you just drilled. Use a shop
vacuum to clean out these holes. This will
ensure the floor anchors set correctly.
Anchor two locations
Step 3
Secure the lift in place by tightening the floor
anchor bolts.

Setting the Limit Switches
Your lift is equipped with upper and lower limit switches. The vertical location of these switches may be
adjusted to fit your application. Typically the upper limit switch will need to be adjusted so the platform will
stop level with the upper landing. The lower limit will typically not need adjusting.
Step 1
Step 4
Verify the emergency switch is in the ON
position. Run the lift in the up direction until
the platform floor is level with the upper
landing. Disconnect the lift’s power (at the
building’s circuit breaker for AC units, at the
battery box for DC units) before going to the
next step.
Loosen the bolts that attaches the upper limit
switch assembly. Slide the assembly down
the track until the lower switch in the
assembly comes in contact with the lift’s car.
You should hear the limit switch click as
contact is made. Retighten the set screw
fastening the limit switch assembly in place.
Warning: Moving components can cut
and crush. Do not operate the lift if you
are in close proximity to any drive
components. Be aware that loose
clothing or jewelry may catch on moving
parts.
Step 2
Remove the screws at the top of the lift that
attach the front cover.
Step 5
Replace the front cover and secure it with
the screws you removed in step 1.
Step 3
Step 6
Remove the front cover by tilting it forward
and lifting upwards. The bottom of the front
cover sits on a pin on either side of the lift
frame. Set the cover aside in a safe location
where it will not get damaged.
Re-connect the lifts electricial power at the
circuit breaker. Verify that the emergency
switch is in the on position.
Step 7
Run the lift in the down direction for several
inches. Next, run the lift in the up direction.
Continue to press the up button until the
upper limit switch has caused the lift to stop.
Verify that the platform has stopped level
with the upper landing. If it has not, readjust
the limit until it is level.

Verifying Operation of the Lift
Caution: Complete the following section before training the customer to use
the lift.
Step 1
Run the lift up and down for 5 complete cycles. Hold the direction button down and allow the limit
switches to stop the lift. At the top, verify that the platform stops level with the upper landing. At the
bottom, verify the access ramp (if equipped) unfolds and rests on the ground.
Step 2
Verify the operation of the Emergency stop switch. When this switch is pushed in the lift should not run in
either direction. When this switch is turned and pulled back out, the lift should operate normally.
Step 3
Verify the operation of the sensor pan underneath the platform. Start with the lift at the top landing. Press
up on the sensor pan. While holding the pan in this location, press the down switch on the platform. The
lift should not run.
Warning: Do not run the lift if anyone is under the platform.
