CAUTION: Using the emergency mechanical release as the primary means of returning to the seated
position can cause damage to the unit. Only use the mechanical release in
emergency situations.
All Altimate Medical electric lift products are equipped with a mechanical
release to be used in emergency situations.
FIG . C-The release allows the user to be lowered to a seated position in the
unlikely occurrence of the battery losing charge while the user is in a
standing position. The actuator only retracts if the release is pulled and
there is weight on the seat. The release is located on the left side of the
seat and is signified by a red tag with the word “EMERGENCY.”
1. To activate the emergency mechanical release pull out the quick release
pin located underneath the seat.
2. Squeeze the handle and if necessary, push down on the handle.
Battery Replacement
The batteries are enclosed in the control box of the Pow’r Up Lift (the black box where the cords are
plugged in). Once the batteries have reached their end of life and need to be replaced, do not open the
control box; please contact Altimate Medical Customer Service or your medical equipment dealer for
information about purchasing a replacement control box. It is recommended that the batteries be
replaced every four years.
Please contact a local recycling authority for information about disposing of the old batteries.
IP Rating
The IP rating is a classification system indicating the protection degree from dust, water and impact for
electrical equipment and enclosures. Pow’r Up Lift components are rated at IP21. The definition for IP21 is
as follows:
First character definition: 2 - Protected against solid foreign objects of 12.5mm diameter and greater.
Second character definition: 1 - Protected against vertically falling water drops.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Pow’r Up Option components have been designed and tested to meet the applicable EMC requirements. It
is unlikely that you will encounter problems with your EasyStand due to inadequate electromagnetic
compatibility. However, if you notice any unusual (such as intermittent) behavior of your Pow’r Up option
and the EasyStand is being used next to possible interfering equipment such as mobile phones,
microwaves, or radio broadcast masts, this could be an indication of electromagnetic interference. If such
behavior occurs, use the mechanical release to lower the unit to the seated position and move the
EasyStand away from the interfering equipment. Please report any instance of possible electromagnetic
interference to AMI’s Customer Service Department.
