CODE AND SITE REQUIREMENTS

Code Requirements  

This platform lift is designed to meet ASME A18.1 section 5 and CSA B44 / ASME A17.5 with 

the addition of certain options. Code requirements for vertical platform lifts vary depending 

on location. Your installer is responsible for contacting your local code enforcement office to 

determine all applicable regulations prior to installing vertical platform lifts. 

Site Requirements

The lift requires a 120 VAC 15 AMP grounded circuit. Outdoor installations require a GFI 

protected circuit. Lift must be installed on a 4

"

 thick, level 3,500 PSI reinforced concrete slab. 

The footprint requires 50

x 70

"

 area (this includes the folding access ramp).

OPERATION

Up or Down Direction Button

The limit switches will stop the lift platform level with the upper landing. At the bottom, the 

access ramp unfolds and rests on the ground.

Emergency Stop

Press the Emergency Stop button. This will prevent the lift from running in either direction. To 

operate the lift normally, pull the switch back out. 

NOTE:

 The sensor pan beneath the platform is designed to stop the lift when it hits an object 

underneath it. You can verify the operation of the sensor pan by starting the lift at the top 
landing. Press up on the sensor pan. While holding the pan in this location, press the down 
switch on the platform. The lift should not run. Check all sides and middle of the safety pan.

SAFETY

IMPORTANT: Read all instructions in this Owner’s Manual before operating the lift.

CAUTION: Center weight on lift’s platform. Lock brakes before operating lift when using 
with a wheelchair or scooter. Do not use lift if you suspect damage or wear.
