(1) Hardware used in the lift assembly must be selected to match the hardware used with the installed bracket assembly.
(2)
Note that the only difference between the model 288 and model 350 lift assemblies is the diameter of the threaded rod hardware. All other
components of the two assemblies are identical.
(3)
Do not operate at pressures that produce lift forces in excess of the lift assembly’s rated lifting load. Max operating pressure of the lift
cylinder produces forces that exceed this value and is given for informational purposes only.
(4)
Rated lifting load is given for the lift assembly only. Do not operate at pressures that exceed the allowable capacities of the system which are
governed by the allowable capacities of the bracket and other system components, as well as the torque correlated soil capacity, or installed
driving force divided by an appropriate factor of safety. All of these governing limits are outlined in places elsewhere in this appendix.
