Operation Procedure Review

The Braun Corporation recom- mends that transit agency supervisors and wheelchair lift attendants review the safety precautions and operation procedures appearing in this manual and on lift-posted decals with your wheelchair lift sales representative (dealer), before attempting lift operation.

Any questions or concerns can be answered by the sales representative at that time. Operate the lift through all functions with your sales repre- sentative on hand to ensure the proper use and operation of the wheelchair lift is understood.
