Installing Optional Ceiling Closure <br /> If your Scissor Lift SLX is equipped with optional ceiling closure, it can be used as is, or in conjunction with a square of existing ceiling tile (see Fig. 5). <br />1 If installing with ceiling tile, you may need to cut tile so that its overall dimensions <br /> are the same as (or slightly less than) the closure panel. Place tile into trim frame. <br /> Lay closure panel on top (back side) of ceiling tile, and tighten screws to hold in place. <br /> Lipless Closure Option is available by removing the Trim Ring from the <br /> Closure Panel. A substrate material (ceiling tile, gypsum board, etc.) can be <br /> attached directly to the Closure Panel using adhesive, double-sided tape or <br /> screws. NOTE: Make sure the added weight of the substrate does not <br /> exceed the stated weight capacity of the lift. Substrate should be installed <br /> so that it is centered within the finished opening in the ceiling, with a gap of no <br /> less that 3/16" around all edges. Lipless Closure dimensions shown with * in <br /> drawing below. <br />2 Attach provided angle brackets to side of Bottom Panel of Scissor Lift SLX. <br />3 Attach threaded rods to angle bracket. <br />4 Run unit “up” until bottom pan stops at highest position. Mark position on <br /> rods even with ceiling level and cut to length (remove from pan if convenient). <br />5 Run unit “down” until bottom pan stops at “show” position. <br />6 Attach closure to lower end of rods by slipping into four corner slots and <br /> secure with nuts above and below slots. <br />Caution: Make sure nuts are completely tightened. <br />7 Run unit “up” again to highest position. Measure distance by which panel fails to <br /> reach required “closed” height for surrounding ceiling. <br />8 Run unit “down” then re-adjust mounting of threadedrods in traveling grid to raise <br /> panel required distance. <br />9 Test unit operation to confirm that panel will stop in closed position just before <br /> touching ceiling. <br />PLEASE NOTE: <br />Immediately upon completion of the surrounding ceiling, unit should be <br />operated to confirm that optional ceiling closure panel by Draper or by <br />others stops 1/8" short of touching ceiling in closed position. If closure panel <br /> touches, the motor may continue operating after the lift is closed. <br />If it continues to cycle once the lift is closed, a motor failure may occur. <br />Installing Optional Ceiling Trim Kit <br /> The Scissor Lift SLX is available with a Ceiling Trim Kit, which consists of <br />the lower section of the Environmental Air Space Housing and the optional <br />closure panel (see Fig. 6). <br />1 Install Scissor Lift SLX as previously described in these instructions. <br />2 Install bottom section of Environmental Air Space Housing and Trim Ring in <br /> opening. This can be accomplished by suspending with wire, or by mounting <br /> directly to the ceiling joists (if space permits). <br />3 Install projector and attach optional ceiling closure to Scissor Lift SLX, <br /> according to the instructions included in this document. <br />Ceiling tile <br />(by others) <br />Lower section of <br />Environmental Air <br />Space Housing <br />Tr im Ring <br /> Item Qty Part number Description <br /> 1 1 C028.546 Frame, SLX Closure Trim <br /> 2 1 C044.181.07SA Panel, SLX Assembled Closure <br /> 3 2 C002.845.07SA Bracket, SLX Closure <br /> 4 4 C077.035.49 Rod 3/8"-16 x 177/8" L Threaded , Zinc <br /> 5 8 C013.050 Washer .375 I.D. x .875" O.D. <br /> x .064" TK GRD 2 Zinc Flat <br /> 6 8 C020.082 Screw, 10-16 X ½" 6 Lobe <br /> Truss Head AB E-White <br /> 7 16 C018.027 Nut, 3/8"-16 Hex GRD 2 NSF <br /> 8 4 C020.322 Screw, 5/16"-18 x ¾" Long Grade 5 HH Zinc <br /> 9 4 C018.045 Nut, 5/16"-18 Zinc Hex KEPS <br />1 <br />2 <br />389 <br />7 <br />4 <br />7 5 6 <br />Figure 5 <br />Figure 6 <br />For Additional Safety: <br />1 Be sure the nuts that attach the threaded <br /> rods to the closure panel are tight. <br />2 Wrap a plastic wire tie around the mounting <br /> tab and the threaded rod at all four corners <br /> of the closure panel (see drawing). <br />Please Note: Do NOT use a <br />paper-covered or similar wire tie— <br />use only plastic wire ties for <br />maximum safety. <br />Scissor Lift SLX by Draper page 4 of 8 <br />www.draperinc.com (765) 987-7999 <br />Scissor Lift SLX Inspection and Maintenance <br />Draper recommends inspecting the Scissor Lift SLX at least annually or <br />every 300 cycles—whichever comes first. <br /> A recommended maintenance schedule includes: <br /> -Cables: <br /> Check for fraying. <br /> -Drive Chain Gears: <br /> Check for rust, breaks, secure attachment. <br /> -Fasteners along scissor arm assemblies: <br /> Make sure they are not loose. If any are loose, hand tighten the nuts. <br /> <br />Please Note: <br />There is no need to tighten nut in the top scissor which slides back and forth <br />in the side slot in the lift. Tightening this fasteners assembly will cause the unit <br />to lock up and lead to damage to the unit. <br /> <br /> -Closure: <br /> Make sure threaded rod remains seated firmly in the closure panel <br /> corners, and that nuts remain tight. If they are loose, tighten them.
