Therefore, all Workforce lifts are designed, manufactured and tested to comply with current applicable Federal OSHA and ANSI codes and regulations. Damage Policy There may be occasions when a Workforce lift is involved in an incident that results in structural damage to the lift. This can seriously compromise the ability of the lift to perform in a safe manner. Therefore, whenever a Workforce lift is damaged structurally or when there is the possibility of structural damage (this damage may be internal and is not always visible to the naked eye), Workforce requires that the lift be returned to our facility at 125 Taylor Parkway, Archbold, Ohio, for reconditioning. If you have any questions concerning what constitutes structural damage, please call the Workforce Service Department at 419.445.9675. Damage Repair Notice There may be occasions when a Workforce lift is involved in an incident resulting in nonstructural damage. When this occurs and repairs are made by the owner or area distributor, please notify Workforce of these non-maintenance repairs and request a repair form to be filled out and returned to Workforce. 1-7 XLT-1071AIR 1-8 2 Introduction 2-1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The model XLT-1071 Cougar Lift is designed and manufactured for use as a warehouse stocking and order picking machine. Its unique guard rail design permits the operator to ride on the platform with the load, while transferring it from group level to its overhead storage location. The maximum platform load is limited to 500 lbs. Platform elevation is accomplished by means of a 1-1/2 inch displacement type hydraulic cylinder. The lower telescoping section is pushed vertically upward by the cylinder while the upper sections are raised by a mechanical motion advantage accomplished through two sets of chains and sheaves. The platform is raised three inches for each one inch of cylinder extension. Platform elevation and descent is controlled by pushbuttons on the upper control box located on the platform. Safety of operation is assured by proper inspection and maintenance procedures as set forth in this manual. The possibility of platform free-fall is eliminated by proper maintenance and replacement of the chains, sheaves and sheave pins, a properly installed flow restrictor valve, and a clean mast. The non-adjustable restrictor valve controls and fixes the rate of platform descent whether empty or fully loaded to approximately 0.6 feet per second. A hydraulic hose failure will result in the same rate of descent, eliminating freefall, when the restrictor valve is installed properly. Emergency lowering of the platform is accomplished by means of a manual control valve located on the hydraulic manifold block assembly, next to the pump/motor unit. The Cougar Lift features a displacement type of cylinder that will not rust or corrode during storage since the cylinder rod is immersed in oil. It is important that the cylinder rod be kept clean and undamaged for the protection of the cylinder head packing. The floor lock safety switch prevents the unit from raising until the two floor pads have been properly engaged and helps to make the Cougar Lift a safe, dependable machine. Carefully read all the safety instructions contained in Section 1 of this manual before operating the Cougar Lift. 2-1 XLT-1071AIR 2-2 SPECIFICATIONS Cougar Lift Hydraulic Lift Platform Model Number XLT-1071AIR Manufactured by: Serial Number ________________ bil-jax, Inc.

Hydraulic Cylinder Exploded View 3-7 XLT-1071AIR 3-4 LIFT CHAINS AND SLIDE BLOCKS WARNING Do not operate a unit on which any chain assembly is damaged or in need of replacement. Operating a unit with a damaged chain can cause severe injury or death to personnel and damage to equipment. Inspect all lift chains daily. Inspect for signs of wear, split leaves, loose pins, clevis damage, and elongation. Replace any chain which is damaged in any way. Chain assemblies may be ordered from your dealer or direct from the factory. Do not operate a unit on which any chain assembly is damaged and in need of replacement. Chain Elongation Inspection One pitch of chain should measure 5/8 in. (1,5875 cm). Measure 20 pitches of chain. The ideal measurement for 20 pitches of chain should be 12.5 in. (31,75 cm). Replace the chain if 20 pitches measure over 12.75 in. (32,385 cm). Refer to Figure 3-4. 5/8 IN. (1,5875 CM) PITCH 20 PITCHES = 12.5 IN. (31,75 CM) REPLACE CHAIN IF 20 PITCHES MEASURES OVER 12.75 IN (32,385 CM) Figure 3-4. Chain Elongation Inspection NOTE: 3-8 It is recommended that chains be replaced every four years unless damage or wear requires replacement at a lesser interval. 3 — MAINTENANCE Lift Chain Adjustment 1. Raise the platform to the maximum extended height and then lower it while someone checks to see that all sheaves are turning and checks for chain damage or wear. 2. After the platform is completely lowered, remove the plexiglass cover from the base. 3. Chains should be tight to the touch with no loose play. Check all four lift chains for snugness. If a chain is loose, tighten the lock nut below the clevis retainer. Refer to Figure 3-5. Adjust any loose chain until it just becomes snug. Do not overtighten any chain so that the platform is raised from its resting position. 4. Make sure the lock nuts are turned onto the threaded clevis ends with at least 1/8 in. of the clevis end extending through the nut. Replace any lock nut which does not stay in position during use. Replace the plexiglass cover. LIFT CHAINS LIFT CHAINS CLEVIS CLEVIS LOCK NUT LOCK NUT Figure 3-5. Lift Chain Adjustment 3-9 XLT-1071AIR Slide Block Adjustment Annually check for wear on the slide blocks and replace or retighten as necessary. If the lift exhibits excessive mast sway, it is probable that the slide blocks need adjustment. The slide blocks should be adjusted so that there is no air gap between the slide block and the mast the slide block is moving against. There are 12 slide blocks, 6 upper and 6 lower. The adjustment procedure is the same for all slide blocks. Three upper slide blocks are shown in Figure 3-6. 1. Loosen, do not remove, the slotted hex head screw securing the slide block to be adjusted. 2. Using an allen wrench, turn the set screws in (clockwise). This will push the block in against the next mast. Do not overtighten. Tighten the slotted hex head screw to secure the slide block in position. 3. Check all slide blocks and make adjustments as necessary. 4. After all adjustments are made, fully extend the lift. If the platform can be lowered without stopping then the blocks are properly adjusted. SLIDE BLOCKS SET SCREWS SLOTTED HEX SCREW Figure 3-6. Slide Block Adjustment NOTE: 3-10 The plastic slide blocks in the mast are made of a bearing material which has a high degree of lubricity and need only be kept clean.
