Lift Components

Refer to the Lift Terminology Il- lustration on page 4.

Pump Module: The lift-mounted pump module consists of the hy- draulic pump, the manual hand pump, the electronic control board and electrical components that power the lift electric/hy- draulic systems.

Hand-held Pendant Control: The hand-held attendant's pendant control is connected to the pump module. The hand- held pendant is equipped with two rocker switches, (UNFOLD, FOLD, DOWN, and UP). The momentary switches activate the automatic lift functions.

Lift Terminology

Lift Frame: The lift frame con- sists of the base plate, threshold warning plate, towers, parallel arms, vertical arms, platform pivot arms and handrails. Two main hydraulic cylinders are housed in the parallel arms. The electrical/hydraulic powered lift frame components mechani- cally unfold, lower, raise and fold the lift platform assembly.

Platform Assembly: The plat- form assembly consists of the steel tubing frame with grating surface upon which the wheel- chair is positioned, the outer barrier, outer barrier latch, the inner roll stop, and the hydraulic cylinder assembly that powers the outer barrier.

Lift-TiteLatches: The spring- loaded latches prevent the platform from unfolding from the stowed position in the event of platform drift. Further details regarding Lift-Titelatches are provided on pages 16 and 17.

Outer Barrier: The cylinder- powered automatic outer barrier provides a ramp for wheelchair loading and unloading at ground level. Photos and further details regarding the outer barrier are provided in the Operation Notes section (pages 19-21).

Outer Barrier Latch: The spring- loaded latch locks the outer bar- rier in the vertical position when the platform raises above ground level.
