III. INSTALLATION
WARNING! Route the wiring harness through the vehicle rather than under the vehicle to
avoid coming in contact with sharp edges, extreme temperatures, moving parts, and
roadway debris including road salt and other highly corrosive materials. Power shorts
may occur if wires come in contact with hot exhaust parts or sharp edges.
WARNING! Never attach the wiring harness to a secondary power source. Do not attempt
to use trailer wiring to power the lift system. The wiring harness must be connected
directly to the vehicle battery.
NOTE: If your lift is equipped with an onboard battery, refer to “Onboard Battery Installation.”
6. Install the wheel chocks to the lift platform. Refer to “Wheel Chock Installation.”
Wiring Harness Installation
The wiring harness is approximately 25 ft. (7.62 meters) long and will accommodate most vehicles.
NOTE: You may wish to perform a practice run before installing the wiring harness. Route a piece of
light rope (equivalent to the gauge of the wiring harness) along the anticipated path observing contact
points, potential rubbing/chafing points, and any sharp edges. Remove sharp edges with a fine grade
file, then treat the steel with a rust inhibitor or metal sealant.
Follow these steps to route the lift system wiring harness:
1. Route the lift system wiring harness (starting at the lift) through the interior of the vehicle until you
reach the vehicle battery. See figure 8. You will typically find pass-through points at the rear lighting
assemblies, which will enable you to route the cable through the trunk and under the back seat.
2. Conceal the harness behind or under the interior panels of the vehicle (there should be existing holes).
Be certain that the harness is protected with a rubber grommet when passing it through the metal panels
and into the engine compartment.
3. Inside the engine compartment, secure the harness to the firewall and the inner fender with plastic wire
ties. Use care not to cause abrasions to the wiring harness. It is important to secure the wiring harness
at various points along its run of the vehicle.
WARNING! Do not cut or
shorten the wiring harness. If
the harness is too long, coil the
excess wire and secure it with
plastic wire ties.
4. Connect the red wire to the positive (+) ter-
minal and the black (grounding) wire to the
negative (-) terminal of the vehicle battery.
WARNING! Before operating
the lift, inspect the wiring
harness for proper routing and
grounding. Improper routing
can cause damage to the
harness, and improper
grounding can cause damage
to the electrical system.
