FIGURE 2 - ADJUSTING THE BASE

The casters MUST swivel and roll smoothly. A light grease
(waterproof auto lubricant) may be applied to the ball
bearing swivel of the casters once a year. Apply more
frequently if the casters are exposed to extreme moist con-
ditions.

WEAR AND DAMAGE

It is important to inspect all stressed parts, such as slings
and any attachment point for slings for signs of cracking,
fraying, deformation or deterioration. Replace any defective
parts immediately and ensure that the lift is not used until
repairs are made.

CLEANING

The sling should be washed regularly in water
temperature of 140

o

F (60

o

C) and a biological solution. A

soft cloth, dampened with water and a small amount of
mild detergent, is all that is needed to clean the stand up
lift.  The lift can be cleaned with non-abrasive cleaners.

ADJUSTING THE BASE (FIGURE 2)

NOTE: The base adjustment should not require any
attention other than:

1. Check the squareness of the legs when in the

CLOSED position.

2. Place a square on the inside of the legs and base to

determine the 90

o

 alignment.

3. Adjust the linkage rods until 90

o

 alignment is achieved.
