Lift Actions and Functions:

Deploy (Extend): Lift deploy- ment is the action of the lift plat- form carriage assembly extend- ing (moving outward) from the housing and lowering to ground level when the DOWN switch is activated or raising to floor level when the UP switch is activated.

Stow (Retract): Stow is the action of the lift platform and car- riage assembly retracting (moving inward) into the lift housing. Dur- ing the stow function, the platform will automatically raise or lower to stow level before retracting into the housing.

DOWN - Platform Lower: Down is the action of the platform lower- ing from stow or floor level posi-

tion to fully-lowered (ground level) position when the DOWN switch is pressed.

DOWN - Outer Barrier Un- fold (Down) - When the plat- form reaches the fully-lowered (ground) position and the DOWN switch is continued to be pressed, the outer barriers rotate down- ward from vertical position to ramp position.

UP - Outer Barrier Fold (Raise): From ground level, the UP func- tion automatically raises (rotates) the actuator activated outer bar- riers to the upright (vertical) posi- tion before the platform raises.

UP - Platform Raise: Up is the action of the platform raising from stow level or ground level to floor

level (fully-raised) position when the UP switch is pressed. When the lift is fully lowered, press- ing the UP switch first raises the outer barrier.

Note: The lift platform will not raise if the outer barriers are not in the upright (vertical) position. This is a built in safety feature.

Stow Level: Stow level is the height that the platform and car- riage assembly moves in and moves out of the lift housing.

Floor Level: Floor level is the height that the platfom and car- riage assembly raises to in order for the wheelchair passenger to enter and exit the vehicle (fully raised position).
