TRANSPORTING & USING THE PATRIOT LIFT:
The Patriot Lift has been designed to make transporting and using the lift as simple as
possible. The design makes the lift 100% ADA compliant by providing two separate
operating modes; one for transporting the lift and one for using it.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE LIFT WHILE IN THE TRANSPORT MODE!
MODES OF OPERATION:
1]
TRANSPORT MODE
: In this mode the lift is on top of the portable cart and the
brake-foot is raised, allowing the lift to roll and turn freely. The finger/toe guards also
inhibit use of the lift while in this position.
2]
OPERATION MODE:
In this mode the lift is on the deck surface and the brake-foot
is lowered, keeping the cart and lift stable and stationary. To place the lift in this
position, follow the instructions below.
TRANSPORT INSTRUCTIONS:
1)
Roll Patriot Lift to desired position on the deck. Stand behind the lift and tilt it
back and down as shown below. Tilt the lift to almost horizontal to make sliding
and pivoting as simple as possible.
2)
Slide the lift forwards until it comes to the end of the slide-slots.
3)
Rotate the lift forwards and down until it rests flat on the deck. Turn the handle of
the brake-foot clockwise until the brake-foot is firmly in contact with the deck.
The lift is now ready to use.
