vehicle with the sales
representative on hand to
ensure the lift is right for you
as the end user (applicable
for your use based on your
physical abilities and the
physical characteristics of
your personal wheelchair).
Become familiar with the
proper operation of your lift
before operating the lift by
yourself.
This lift operator’s
manual
must be stored in the lift-
mounted manual storage
pouch when not in use
.
Maintenance is necessary to
ensure safe and troublefree lift
operation. Preventive lift
maintenance consisting of
careful
inspections of your lift
system and cleaning the lift
should be a part of your routine.
Simple inspections can detect
potential lift operational problems.
Regular preventive mainte-
nance will reduce potential lift
operation downtime and in-
crease the service life of the lift,
as well as enhancing safety.
During routine inspections,
operate the lift through a mini-
mum of one complete cycle and
note the following:
• Do the automatic door(s) open
fully (if equipped)?
• Does the lift safely clear the
door(s) when unfolding and
folding?
• Do the lift control switches
function properly?
• Does the automatic roll stop
operate properly?
• Do the handrails function
properly?
• Is the power source adequate
or weak?
Exposure to harsh weather
elements, environment condi-
tions, or heavy usage, etc. may
require more frequent mainte-
nance and lubrication proce-
dures.
