6.5 Emergency Brake

•The emergency brake is made of a metal bar fixed to the drum.

•In case of a chain, gear or motor breakage, the centrifugal force created would block the bar against the frame.

6.6Frame with mechanical clips

• Supporting structure is welded and reinforced with metal clips.

6.7 Battery Information

DO NOT DROP THE LIFT. A DROPPED LIFT MAY HAVE INTERNAL DAMAGE THAT IS NOT VISIBLE. IT MAY LOSE ITS ABILITY TO RECHARGE.

Due to internal damage caused when the battery is dropped, the battery may indicate that it is fully charged, when in fact it cannot hold a full charge. A green light indicated on the lift may not accurately reflect a full charge on a damaged battery.

NEVER attempt to use a battery that appears to be damaged or dented.

DO NOT store the battery near a heat source. Heat will damage it.

•24 Vdc, 7 Ah rechargeable battery.

•Provides up to 150 transfers with load of 75 kg (165 pounds).

Life cycle (number of charging cycles) of the battery is largely dependent on the depth of discharge in each cycle. The more the battery is drained, the shorter its life span. The life of the battery is also related to such factors as varying temperatures and rest periods between charge and discharge.

Graph 1: Number of recharges vs. Depth of discharge

Graph 1 illustrates the relationship between discharging depth and expected battery life.

If you drain the battery until it beeps every time, you can expect the battery to fully charge only 600 times.

To prolong battery life, return the lift to the charger WHENEVER THE LIFT IS NOT IN USE.

The battery will not overcharge.

BHM uses sealed lead-acid batteries. Contrary to nickel-cadmium, BHM batteries do not have any memory effect. Therefore, batteries should not be completely drained before recharge.

Graph 2: Number of lifts vs. Lift load

The graph above (Graph 2) illustrates the relationship between the load lifted and the number of lifts that can be done with one recharged battery.

Do not drain the battery excessively. This will dramatically reduce the battery life span.

If the low battery buzzer sounds and red light flashes, be sure to recharge the battery as soon as possible.

6.8 Charging the battery

DO NOT operate the charger unit with a damaged cord or if the unit has been dropped or damaged.

DO NOT forcibly bend the power cord or place a heavy object on it. This will damage the cord and may cause fire or electrical shock.

DO NOT pour liquid on or near the charger.
