TROUBLESHOOTING & MANUAL OVERRIDE

Troubleshooting

In case of power failure, this lift is equipped with a Manual Override Crank that 

permits it to be raised or lowered by hand. Before using, check to ensure that the 

manual system is required. 

Before using the Manual Override Crank, try trouble-shooting by verifying the 

following:

• 

 Check that the Emergency Stop Switch is pulled out.

• 

Check that the electrical cord is plugged into the electrical outlet.

• 

 Check that the building’s circuit breaker has not tripped.

• 

Try to run the lift by pushing both the up and down buttons.

Manual Over-Ride Procedure

If, after Troubleshooting as above, the lift still will not run, complete the following 
steps:

Step 1

Unplug the lift from the 

electrical outlet. Push in the  

Emergency Stop Button. 

WARNING: Do not service 
or operate the Manual 
Override Crank while 
the lift is connected to 
electricity.

Step 2

Loosen the screws and 

remove the top cap at the 

top of the tower. 

Step 3

Insert the manual hand 

crank onto the upper nut on 

the top of the drive screw. 
Rotate the crank to raise or 

lower the platform.

WARNING: Never operate 
the lift while the Manual

into the lift.
