Unpacking Open box and examine components. Look for any loose parts in the packing material before discarding. If any are found, try and find the part on the parts list or on the exploded view of the lift, and reinstall the part. If any part of the machine is missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the front cover as soon as possible. Assembly While assembling the truck lift, refer to the Assembly Parts Illustration on the last page. 1. Place the Base (01) in the location on the truck bed where it is to be secured. This flat location must be able to support the lift with a 1000 lb. load. (On most trucks, a desirable position is just behind the wheel so that the boom may be stored over the wheel well.) 2. Using a pencil, mark through the mounting holes in the lift base (01) to mark drill holes. 3. Using a power drill and appropriate drill bit size, drill holes through truck bed. 4. Place the bolts (22) through the Base and into the truck bed holes. 5. Place each Angle Steel (11) plate under the truck bed, over the protruding bolts (22), and secure with the washers (23), spring washers (24), and finally the nuts (25), as shown in the Assembly Parts Illustration. Tighten nuts (25) securely. 6. Place the Post (02) upper lift assembly onto the Base (01). Insert Lock Pin (20). Warning: The Lift has four extension settings for the Extendible Boom. Each setting has a weight limit that is clearly marked on the Boom. Do not exceed these weight limits as it may cause damage to the Pick Up Truck Lift and/or cause bodily injury. Page 3

4 Operation 1. Release the Lock Pin (20) located on the Post (02), and swivel the Post so that the Boom (04) is pointing towards the object to be lifted. 2. Position the Hook and Steel Cable (10) over the article to be moved by adjusting and locking the Extendible Boom (07) in place using the Boom Extendible Pin (08). Do not exceed the weight limits of the lift (See specification table). 3. Hook around the article so that its weight is centered. 4. Place the slotted end of the Jack Handle (21) over the Jack release valve, and close it by turning it in a clockwise direction. 5. Insert the Jack Handle into its connector and lift the Boom by pumping the handle in an up and down motion. 6. When the article has been lifted to the desired height, it may be moved over the truck bed by slowly swiveling the Post (02) until the article is directly over the truck bed. Do not attempt to extend the Boom further while the article is still attached. If the article needs to be moved further out, lower it, then adjust the Boom and relift it. 7. Lower the article onto the truck bed by using the Jack Handle (21) to slowly turn the pump release valve in a counterclockwise direction. 8. Reverse previous steps to remove article from truck bed. 9. Secure boom over truck wheel well using the Lock Pin (20). Page 4

5 Maintenance 1. Clean and lubricate all moving parts including gears, ratchets, and shafts to insure safe operation. When not in use, keep clean, dry, and covered. 2. Purge air from hydraulic system when jack does not lift efficiently. 3. Replace hydraulic oil once per year. Purging Air from the Hydraulic System Note: Occasionally, air bubbles can become trapped inside the hydraulic system thereby reducing the efficiency of the jack. Purge air from the system as needed. 1. Place the slotted end of the Jack Handle (21) over the valve release screw. 2. Turn the valve release screw (not shown) 1-1/2 turns counterclockwise using the Jack Handle. 3. Remove the oil filler plug on the side of the Jack (not shown) by gently pulling and turning. 4. Rapidly pump the Jack Handle several times to purge air from the hydraulic system. 5. Turn the valve release screw clockwise until snug using the Jack Handle. 6. Replace the oil filler plug.

Remove the Jack (12) from the lift and place in an upright position. 2. Completely lower ram. 3. Remove the oil filler plug (not shown) from the Jack. 4.
