Onboard Battery Installation
The optional onboard battery is designed for easy installation as it does not require any wires to be routed through or un- der the vehicle.

2.Secure the battery case to the accessory bracket with the supplied hardware. See figure 8.
3.Insert the onboard battery into the battery case, making sure that the connector on the bottom of the battery aligns and fully connects with the mating connector inside the battery case.
4.Plug the battery cord on the bottom of the battery case into the mating connector running from the motor. See figure 8.
Wheel Chock Installation
Your lift is supplied with four adjustable wheel chocks, that when installed, aid in centering your mobility device during loading.
Follow these steps to install the wheel chocks:
1.Drive your mobility device onto the lift platform, posi- tioning it as near to the center as possible.
2.Position the wheel chocks on the platform.
Scooters: Place a wheel chock in front of the front wheel(s) and behind the rear wheels.
Power chairs: Place a wheel chock in front of the drive wheels and behind the rear casters.
3.Take note of the adjustment holes the wheel chocks align with on the platform and remove the chocks.
4.Remove the mobility device from the lift platform.
5.Raise the platform high enough to be able to install hard- ware from beneath it.
6.Position the wheel chock bottom on the underside of the platform, aligning it with the wheel chock top. See figure 9.
7.Secure the wheel chock sections to the platform using the supplied hardware. See figure 9.
