Claim 18:
19. A method of operating a lift device, the method comprising:
raising a first scissor layer including a first inner arm pivotally coupled to a first outer arm a first distance by rotating a kicker including opposing first and second kicker ends around a kicker axis a first arc length to engage the second end of the kicker with the first scissor layer and raise the first scissor layer the first distance;
disengaging the second kicker end from the first scissor layer; and
raising the first scissor layer a second distance by engaging the kicker with a second scissor layer including a second inner arm pivotally coupled to a second outer arm a second distance, wherein the first inner arm is pivotally coupled to the second inner arm and the first outer arm is pivotally coupled to the second arm such that the first scissor layer is pivotally coupled to the second scissor layer raising the first scissor layer the second distance.
