Thank you Sigma. I think I have a better idea now on how to grout. I am going to post my updates soon.

SiGma, would you be able to provide me with a link to the shims that you used and what spot you shimmed the lift up? I plan on shimming and grouting as well because I am not comfortable with have the middle section bowed up right now with no support. I found these shimming kit on ebay -...

Do you guys lift has any space between the bottom plate and the floor? For some reason I couldn't get mine perfect flat with the floor. My pit is not perfectly flat even after all the concrete grinding. Where I anchored the lift down on both ends became pressure point and middle section of the...

is it normal for the master cylinder to rise up before the slave? I see about 3 inches difference when I have them to rise up initially. This is during no load. I haven't tried to load the lift yet until I can make sure that this is correct...

Thank you for all the help! I think your instruction helped me more than the Engrish in the manual! I am on track now to get the lift to work. I did get the lift from Dayang's Liya and she forwarded me to Renny to complete the order. He also hooked me up with a shipping company so the logistic...

I think I have it figured out. I took a step back by looking at just the diagram to understand how the fluid would flow so that eventually both lift will balance out. Now the lift are moving! I just have to repeat the procedure to bleed the both cylinders completely now. I cannot do that at the...

I tried to but I have no idea how to. That manual is just retarded. I speak Chinese and I can't even under a single sentence in that thing. Is there a manual somewhere of a lift that's similar? Like the Atlas fmsl9? Would you be able to point me to the right direction please? I am so close!

Shrimp I will send you a pic of my control unit. Mines the exact same with yours. Now I hooked up everything. I got the motor to run for the first time however the lift are not moving. I do see the motor is doing something with the oil in the resourvoir but the hydraulics are not moving. What...

Thank you Shrimp. What kind of epoxy you used? Is it one of those stuff that are available at the big box stores? Also what size bit you used to drill the hole? Did you drill all the way through the concrete to the subbase? I've read somewhere that these bolt could snap one day so if that...

Did you guys use the included anchor to do the installation? They are M16 x 120mm expansion bolts according to the manual. What size bit did you guys use to drill the hole?

So I finally got my lift in the pit! post images Did you guys use any thread sealant for the hydraulic lines? How tight did you tighten the lines? Are the ******* from the hydraulic cylinder prone to striping?

Very nice Shrimp. Like you I wish I ordered mine in a different color instead. Mine is blue. as well. Now I am just looking at your tail light. I haven't even had my lift in yet. I am gonna have to grind the pad a little bit unfortunately since I have a spot that is not as leveled as the rest of...

Does it make sense to put a piece of OSB/plywood underneath the platform? I just don't know how well would the concrete hold up with the weight of the car and the platform all transferred to a few spots of the pad, especially the square tubes for the legs are hallow.

Thank you Shrimp. I think I am gonna do just that then. I am lucky to have a metal supermarket close to me so getting metal shouldn't be too bad. I think I am just gonna do flux weld with a cheap welder :(

Guys, What gauge steel do you guys use to make your platform in the middle? I am thinking about using 1" x 1" x .125" square tubing with a .25" tread plate. Is it beefy enough or should I have to upsize it?

Anyone used the hydraulic oil that lowes sells? https://www.lowes.com/pd/PRO-SELECT-1-Gallon-AW-32-Hydraulic-Oil/1053693

shrimp, i believe on the manual #5,6,7 terminal says pump motor. #8 is ground. Are all wires at the terminal hooked up correctly? In the manual it also says connecting "N line" to terminal PE, which is terminal #8. Are they referring N as Neutral, or one of the other hot wire since 220v doesn't...

Skate, the pic shows the pit a few hours after the pour, it just started to lose its gloss after finishing. At this point I am just gonna leave the forms there until it's fully cured. It should helps slowing down moisture lost anyway and build strength. I have the rest of the poured area watered...

ok. So I am done with the pouring today! I used 2.5 yard of concrete. The driver was super helpful and tolerant with me being a non-pro. He became my gc in a way. We had to pour the sides half way and then the pit because the concrete would just keep overflowing to the pit area. The bottom of...

My pit base is 9-10 inches thick so hopefully that would help lol
