Set-up and Operation of the SwiveLift
Step 1: Insert the receiver tube assembly into a 2”
Class III or Class IV receiver hitch (300 Lb. minimum
tongue weight capacity) making sure to align the clevis
pin hole with the mating hole on the receiver hitch.
Secure with an appropriate locking clevis pin and cotter
pin (not included). Do not use the SwiveLift before
securing the receiver coupling assembly into the
receiver with a locking pin.
Step 2: Place the lift platform assembly over the pivot
tube on the receiver tube assembly, as shown in figure
4. Slide the column tube over the pivot tube as shown
in Figure 4 until it is seated against the receiver tube
assembly . Align the square column tube with the verti-
cal square tube of the receiver tube assembly as
shown.
Step 3: Attach the winch cable hook to the lift ring of
the lift platform assembly. Note: the lift platform
assembly will not rotate until it is raised completely onto
the lift column (approximately 6” from the lowest
position). Likewise, the lift platform must be facing
directly away from the vehicle reach the lowest position
for loading and unloading.
Step 4: Raise and lower the lift platform using the hand
winch. Use extra caution when lowering any load from
the vehicle to the ground. Tie down straps must be
used to secure the load before loading and/or
unloading. To prevent shifting, secure the tie-down
straps completely underneath the lift platform and over
the object being moved.
