Platform Manual Release Sys- tem: A cable-activated manual release system releases and engages the platform carriage assembly drive chain to allow the platform carriage assembly to be manually moved out (extended) or moved in (retracted) as need- ed. A T-handle is provided on the release cable for activation of the manual release system (details follow).

Failure to manually lock the plat- form carriage assembly (re-en- gage the carriage assembly drive chain) after manual deployment, will allow the platform to roll in or out of housing unhindered during vehicle movement. Failure to lock the platform will also allow the platform to roll in or out of hous- ing unhindered during hand pump raising and lowering procedures.

After manually moving the platform in or out, it is extremely important that the cable-acti- vated manual release is positively re-engaged to secure (lock) the platform carriage assembly before loading a passenger on the plat- form or before driving the vehicle. Grasp the outer barrier and move the platform in and out until the platform locks (chain release assembly engages), securing the platform carriage assembly within the housing. You will feel the release mechanism engage.

After manually releasing platform, push manual release T-handle in fully and ensure platform is locked before driv- ing lift vehicle. Uncontrolled and unintentional platform de- ployment (inadvertent platform ejection) may result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

Note: The lift platform must be pushed back into its carriage compartment all the way before reverting back to normal (pow- ered) operation. When the lift is
