SECTION
Lubricating the Lift
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.
