MAINTENANCE
The Invacare Stand Up Lift is designed to provide a maximum of safe, efficient and satisfactory service with minimum care and maintenance.
All parts of the stand up lift are made of the best grades of steel, but metal to metal contact will wear after considerable use.
There is no adjustment or maintenance of either the casters or brakes, other than cleaning, lubrication and checking axle and swivel bolts for tightness. Remove all debris, etc. from the wheel and swivel bearings. If any parts are worn, replace these parts immediately.
If you question the safety of any part of the lift, contact your dealer immediately and advise them of the problem.
Lubricating the Lift
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 7.1.
The Invacare lift is designed for minimum maintenance. However, a six month check and lubrication should ensure continued safety and reliability.
Keep lift and slings clean and in good working order. Any defect should be noted and reported to your dealer as soon as possible.
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 conditions.
Lubricate all pivot points. Wipe all excess lubricant from lift surface.

Detecting Wear and Damage
It is important to inspect all stressed parts, such as slings, spreader bar and any pivot 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 and the Lift
The sling should be washed regularly in water temperature of 180°F (82°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.
