Pre-Lift Operation Notes and Details

Lift Passengers

Do not attempt to load or unload a passenger in a wheelchair or other apparatus that does not fit on the platform area. Do not exceed the 800 pound load capacity of the lift.

Passenger Orientation (Board- ing Direction): The wheelchair passenger must face outward whenever on the platform.

The passenger must be posi- tioned in the center of the platform to prevent side-to-side load imbalance. Other persons should not ride on the platform with the wheelchair passenger.

The wheelchair brakes must be locked, the roll stops must be in

the fully-up(vertical) position and the outboard roll stop latch must be fully engaged whenever a wheelchair passenger is on the platform.

Do not use the outboard roll stop as a barrier (brake). Stop and brake the wheelchair when fully loaded on the platform. Manually stop and brake manual wheel- chairs. Stop powered wheel- chairs with the wheelchair con- trols. Turn powered (electric) wheelchairs off when on the platform.

Vehicle (Floor Level) Loading and Unloading: The platform must be fully raised (at floor level) and the bridge plate must be properly positioned when loading or unloading a passenger

in or out of the vehicle. Although the L955 features automatic floor level switching, it is the respon- sibility of the lift operator to ensure the platform and the bridge plate are properly positioned at floor level when loading and unloading passen- gers.

If the roll stops, bridge plate, handrails or any other lift compo- nent does not operate as outlined in this manual, discontinue lift use immediately and contact your sales representative or call The Braun Corporation at 1-800- THE LIFT. One of our national Product Support representatives will direct you to an authorized service technician who will inspect your lift.
