Lift Terminology
Introduction:
Braun NL955 Millennium Series lifts comply fully with the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminis- tration (NHTSA) specifications. The Braun NL955 is consumer oriented (designed to allow op- eration by the wheelchair passen- ger). NL955 lift models provide fully automatic operation of all lift functions as well as optional automatic door operators (if so equipped).
Lift models vary per platform size (lift model numbers indicate lift dimensions). A standard NL955 lift model is depicted in the Lift Terminology Illustration. Refer to
the Lift Terminology Illustration for identification of lift compo- nents.
Lift operation procedures are identical for all NL955 Series lift models. The operating instructions contained in this manual and appearing on lift- posted operating instructions decals address the lift control switches and the correspond- ing lift functions. Instructions are provided for manual opera- tion of the lift in event of power or equipment failure.
