1.1 General description
The stairlift is a custom made stairlift with which you can safely and
comfortably use a staircase without any physical exertion. The stairlift can
transport one person per ride.
The stairlift is driven by an electrical motor that is supplied by means of
rechargeable batteries. The charging of the batteries takes place at the stop
places (top and bottom of the stairs).
The stairlift can be operated in two ways:
Seated on the stairlift you operate the lift by means of the control unit,
-
situated in one of the armrests.
If the stairlift is not at the place where you want it to be, you can bring
-
the lift to the desired place using the optional call and send stations.
These call and send stations are kept in a holder on the wall, at the
top and bottom of the stairs.
To limit loss of space when the stairlift is not in use, the armrests, the seat
and the footrest can be folded up.
If the rail forms an obstruction at the lower landing (like blocking a doorway),
the rail can be fitted with an automatic hinged section of rail.
