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. Chains should be tight to the touch with no loose play. Check all lift chains for

snugness. If a chain is loose, it will need to be adjusted.

3. After the platform is completely lowered, raise the complete Odyssey 34 lift with

a fork lift. Insert the forks into the fork lift openings in the base from the lower

control box end.

4. Loosen lock nut (48, Figure 6-1) attaching clevis pin (50) to lifting bar (47).

Tighten hex nut (49) until the chain just becomes snug. Do not overtighten any

chain so that the mast is raised from its resting position.

5. Make sure lock nuts (48) 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.
