Ultimate Harmar Hitch Mounted Lift Installation Guide

Step-by-Step Guide to Installing Your Harmar Mobility Hitch-Mounted Lift Welcome to our guide for installing a Harmar Mobility hitch-mounted lift! This guide is designed to help you save time and money by doing the installation yourself. About Hitch- Mounted Lift Harmar offers various vehicle lifting solutions, and this guide focuses specifically on hitch-mounted lifts. The installation process for most Harmar hitch-mounted lifts is similar, regardless of the model. While professional installation is available through our Lift Squad team, it can be pricey. You can save significant money if you're confident in handling the installation. If you're uncomfortable installing, consider contacting a friend, family member, or local mechanic. Mechanics might not install the entire lift, but can help with wiring, making the process easier and quicker. Hitch-mounted lifts are effortless to use because they usually work for you. You must exit your mobility device to guide it onto the lift platform and then secure your mobility device to the lift. Some lifts will have retractable locking straps, locking arms, or hold-down arms to secure the mobility device. What to know before ordering a hitch-mounted lift. 1) How much weight can your car support on the rear of the vehicle, known as tongue weight? 2) Do you already have a hitch receiver on the vehicle? If not, you need one installed, or we need to know if it's a Class II or III (or whatever size you have), Class II 1 7/8" and Class III 2" Opening. 3) A light hook must be installed to operate the lift puddle light for the license plate (note some states require a raised license plate). 4) What is the height from the ground to the middle of your current hitch receiver if you have one? This will determine if you need a drop hitch. Most lifts range from 5-16 inches, and adding a swing-away will raise the lift (which will consist of getting a drop hitch). What do we need to know when ordering Lift? 1) Make, Year, and Model of Vehicle 2) Hitch height? 3) Make and model of the mobility device you are buying or already have 4) Location to see if we have a lift squad to dispatch or if you are doing it yourself This video shows you how to install the Harmar AL300 Universal power chair and scooter lift.
