Boom Control
The electrical actuator can be operated in both
directions. It allows the operator to raise or
lower the patient without any physical effort.
The boom raising / lowering action is controlled
by the “Up” / “Down” buttons located on the

If two buttons are pressed simultaneously, the
first function button pressed overrides the other
