Product Usage Instructions
Step 1: Assemble the Base Frame and Y-Frame
Install all six T-connectors using the 5mm Allen key. Place the
T-connectors halfway on the dimples for stability. Attach the
Y-Frame to the Base Frame by inserting the Y-Frame into the
T-connector closest to the front of the Base Frame and then sit the
rear end of the Y-Frame into the rear T-connector. Install all
T-connectors that touch the base but do not fully tighten
T-connectors on the Y-Frame yet.

Take two 8in Aluminum Inserts and four M10x50 Bolts/Nuts.
Install the 8in Inserts(x2) into the left or right half of the base
with two M10x50 Bolt/Nut (Use the 17mm wrench & 8mm Allen Key).
After installing the 8in Inserts in one half of the base, slide the
other half on and tighten it together with the other two M10x50
Bolts/Nuts. Then, tighten all the T-connectors that touch the
base.
Step 3: Insert Support Cross Bar
Take your Support Cross Bar and insert it into either one of the
Y-Frames.
Step 4: Install Caster Wheels
Install caster wheels with brakes on one end and caster wheels
without brakes on the other end of the base frame.
Step 5: Attach the Top Platform
Attach the Top Platform to the Y-Frames using the horizontal
tube, gear bracket, and height adjustable insert. Install all
remaining components including the green handle brake release,
S-Frame, pawl, end caps, D-locking pins, and spring.

Steps
1.) Install all 6 T-Connectors as shown in the Fig. below using the 5mm Allen
key, all lower assembly pieces will have a dimple/ marker on both sides of the base that indicate where the T-Connectors sit. Tighten them loosely on the middle of the dimples on both left and right base pieces, and Y-Frames. (Do Not Tighten T-Connectors All The Way, Just Snug). *See Figures Below* a. (It is important that you install all T-Connectors prior to construction). b. (All T-Connectors must sit halfway on the dimple/ marker to ensure your base and Y-Frames are lined up correctly). c. (When tightening the T-Connectors, make sure you do not over tighten them as they will snap from excessive force).
The red dot in the fig. indicates where to find the dimple on the base piece. (There are two dimples per base piece, one at the front and one at
the rear; There is also one dimple per Y-Frame).
Once you have located all your dimples you can start adding the T-connectors to the pieces mentioned above. Remember to put the T-connectors halfway on the dimples for stability. (Do this for both L & R Base Frame and L & R Y-Frame) *See fig. above to see how the T-connectors should look*
TOPLIFT PROTM | ASSEMBLY MANUAL | PAGE 09
Steps
2.) Once you have attached all the T-connectors to the L & R Base and
Y-Frame, you can then connect the Y-Frame with the T-connector on it to the Base Frame. You simply insert the Y-Frame into the T-connector closest to the Front of the Base Frame and then sit the rear end of the Y-Frame into the rear T-connector. *See Figures Below
Make sure you add this on before assembling the pieces.
For easy fitment install the front of the of the Y-Frame to the Front of the T-connector, followed by the rear of the Y-Frame into the Rear T-connector.
After you have finished attaching the Y-Frame to the Base pieces, it should look like this. TOPLIFT PROTM | ASSEMBLY MANUAL | PAGE 10
Steps
3.) The next step is to grab the two 8in Aluminum Insert (Long) and four
M10x50 Bolts/Nuts. Install the 8in Inserts(x2) into the Left or right half of the base with two M10x50 Bolt/Nut (Use the 17mm wrench & 8mm Allen Key). After installing the 8in Inserts in one half of the base, you will then take the other half, slide it on, and then tighten it together with the other two M10x50 Bolts/Nuts. *See Figures Below*

Take your M10x55 Bolt and put it through the now lined up hole and tighten it. With the Green Handle line the hole on the handle with the lower holes on the S-Frame, take your M10x95 and insert it into the lined up hole on the Bracket side. With your M10x90 insert it onto the oposite side. (MAKE SURE TO PUT NYLON WASHER IN BETWEEN ALL MOVING TUBES TO DECREASE FRICTION).

Steps
8.) Grab your two Top Platform Assembly Legs, M10x90 Bolt/Nuts, and some
more Nylon Washers. Take your Platform Assembly Legs and on the side that has one hole put the M10x90 bolt through it with a washer on the end. Take the Platform Assembly Leg with the bolt and washer through it and put the rest of the bolt through the hole at the end of the Green Handle and tighten. (REMEMBER TO ONLY CRIMP THE NYLON WASHER A LITTLE, DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN).
Grab your two Horizontal Tube (3 Hole), M10x90 Bolt/Nuts, and some Nylon Washers. On the left side of the 3 Hole Tube Insert the M10x90 bolt and put a washer on the end of it once you have done so. Attach the 3 Hole tube with the bolt in it and washer on it, to the top hole on the S-Frame and tighten it gently. Now that you have attached the 3 Hole Tube you can now grab another M10x90 bolt and put it through the right hole of the 3 Hole Tube, put a washer on the end of the bolt and insert the bolt/washer combo into the second lowest hole on the Top Platform Assembly Legs and tighten it gently. (All 8 washers should now be in between all the moving tubes).

9.) With the upper assembly now constructed you can grab your 4 Inch
Aluminum Insert (Short), M10x50 Bolt/Nuts, and Top Platform. Take your Short Aluminum Insert and put it into the top of the Top Platform Assembly Legs; now with the hole lined up to both the Short Insert and the Assembly legs, insert the M10x50 bolt into the hole and tighten it. After you have put the insert on you can now take the Top Platform and put it on top of the short insert, line the holes up, insert the other M10x50 and tighten.

Steps
10.) With the TopLift Pro now fully constructed, we will move onto the Cable
Adjustment. Take your Yoke that is attached to the Green Handle, and with the Cotter/ Clevis pin connect the hole at the top of the Pawl to the lined up hole in the Yoke. Now that the Yoke is connected to the Pawl, take your Adjuster Screw (Black Screw Built into Green Handle) and drive it INTO the green sleeve its housed in; by doing this it decreases the amount of SLACK in the cable. Now that the Adjuster Screw is all the way in, untighten (DO NOT REMOVE) the two Set Screws in the Yoke with the 3mm Allen Key. Pull the end of the cable that is going through the yoke until all the wire is straight and tight; while holding the cable and keeping it tight, you can now re-tighten the Set Screws so they can hold that point of the cable. With the Yoke connected to the Pawl, the cable pulled through, and set screws holding the correct point on the cable; you can now take that Adjuster Screw mentioned before and back it out until you have the maximum amount of tension possible. Once you have do this step your lift is now complete, try out the handle before using the mechanism and see if it clears all the teeth on the gears. If it does not, then continue to back out that Adjuster Screw until it does so.
Insert the Clevis Pin into the hole, and on the opposite
Drive Adjuster
side take your Cotter Pin and insert it into the hole on
Screw into green sleeve the other side of the clevis pin and bend it to lock.
Loosen the two Set Screws and pull the cable
to decrease slack.
While still pulling the cable, re-tighten the Set
Screws to get it to hold the cable in place.
Back out the Adjuster Screw accordingly to increase the tension in
the cable.
