II. TYPICAL COMPONENTS
III. INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Your stair lift will include three boxes:
Track Box
Chassis Box
Seat Box
IMPORTANT:
The following instructions are for
building the track on the floor and then moving it
to the staircase. Keep in mind that with regard to
ceilings and doorways, a completed track, which
can easily exceed 10 feet long, can be very dif-
ficult to maneuver between rooms or doorways.
Some people may find it easier to assemble the
unit directly on the staircase. This is perfectly
acceptable, however, please be advised of the
inherent danger of falling while working on a
staircase due to an uneven stance and smaller
working space.

Pictured above is a "Supreme" model. This line of stair
lifts features interchangeable seats. The seat on the
unit you are installing may not look exactly like this.
Regardless, the installation procedures are alike.

Track
Begin by laying out your track on the fl oor and
removing any plastic wrap that may be around
the track.
NOTE: While we begin laying out the track on the
fl oor, some people may fi nd it easier to lay out
the track on the staircase. If this is easier, you
may do it that way, however, make sure you have
something heavy to keep the track from sliding
down the stairs.
A stock unit may include as few as 1 or as many
as 4 custom cut sections of extruded aluminum
track. The track is cut at the factory. Make sure
the track is positioned so the bottom is facing up.
You may have extra gear rack in your track. Gear
rack should be installed on the SIDE of the track.
If you have any gear rack placed in the BOTTOM
of the track, use the supplied 3mm Allen wrench
and loosen, but do not remove, the bolts from the
gear rack. Once loosened, slide the extra gear
rack out of the track.
