Raising and lowering the boom
The movement of the boom is achieved by a powerful electric actuator, which is
controlled by a simple hand set unit. The hand set has two buttons with directional
arrows UP and DOWN. The actuator stops automatically at the limit of travel in both
directions. The hand control plugs into a socket at the base of the control box. There is
a hook on the back of the hand control, which allows it to be hanged on the mast or
boom when not in use.
Battery capacity
Redundant controls
There are also raising and lowering buttons on the control module. These are located
next the emergency stop button and can be used to lower/raise the patient if necessary
or should the hand control fail.
B) Mechanical Emergency Down
In the case of a complete electrical failure, the electrical actuator is fitted with a
mechanical lowering device on top of actuator, it its twisted by hand to activate
lowering. A slow decent will commence. Repeat this process until the patient has been
safely lowered.
If this manual lowering is used, the lift MUST be subsequently checked out by a qualified
engineer.
