Electric Hatch Lifts 12 -Volt
12 Volt with 2 inch Leads and
Deutsch Connectors
The function of the Lenco hatch lift system is simple.
Since the hatch lift is based around a ballscrew it is able to push or pull a
heavy load and remain at a constant position. To raise a load extend the hatch
lift by pressing on the upper part of the switch. To lower a load, retract the
hatch lift by pressing the lower part of the switch.
Lenco hatch lifts are easy to install because they
install with a single power cable. They draw an average of five amps of power
and deliver over 500 pounds of push for heavy engine covers, decks, large
hatches and electric consoles. The function of the Lenco hatch lift system is
simple. Since the hatch lift is based around a ballscrew it is able to push a
heavy load and remain at a constant position. To raise a load extend the hatch
lift by pressing on the upper part of the switch.
In case of power failure Lenco hatch lifts
are supplied with two clevis pins at the mounting brackets. To pull this pin out
while the hatch is closed you must rig it to a point outside of the hatch. To
insure easy access under any circumstances, try the Lenco Hatch Lift Slide
Bracket. Click on the bracket photo for details.
Hatch Lift Installation
|
Hatch Lift Operation
|
Due to the many different
variables involved with the numerous applications for Lenco hatch lifts,
installation is never the same. Here are some general guidelines that can be
of assistance:
- The actuator is most powerful when it is installed vertically at 90
degrees.
- Lifting capabilities decrease the closer the upper or lower mount is
located to the hinge.
- The further from a vertical position the less lifting capability. When
retracted, Do Not position hatch lift at an angle less than 45 degrees.
- Dual actuator systems are recommended for hatches over 500 pounds
(226.79 kg) of force.
- Lenco hatch lifts are designed around a ball screw that spins freely
when hatch is fully open or closed.
- For installation, it is important that the hatch lift is able to
disengage itself at the fully retracted position.
- The ram must be allowed to free spin at both ends of its stroke or it
will continue to push or pull against any resistance potentially damaging
the hatch lift ot the hatch itself.
- Failure to make accurate measure could cause damage to hatch lift or
the hatch itself.
- Lenco hatch lifts are fully submersible and will not drift.
- Lenco hatch lifts are offered in both
- 12- and 24-volts.

Hatch Lift Mounting Instructions
1. Follow the chart
above to figure out load on the hatch lift. maximum load is 500 lbs. (226.79 kg)
Y = Total length of hatch
X = Length from the hinge to the hatch lift mounting point
W = Weight of the hatch to be lifted
2. Determine the angle
of the hatch lift mount. Do not exceed 45 degrees from center.
3. Mount the hatch
lift on the desired location as per the above instructions. Important: It may be
necessary to shim the upper or lower mounting bracket up or down so the hatch
does not bind when fully closed. The hatch lift does not stop pulling until it
has reached its fully closed position. If the hatch fully closes before the
hatch lift is fully retracted, it will cause damage to the lift or the mounting
hardware. Shim the hatch lift with stainless washers for small amounts of
length. Use Lenco part #50015-001 (118s) for lengths greater then 1/8" (3 mm).
4. Wire to switch according to the hatch lift wiring diagram in
the owners manual supplied with the hatch lift.
