Preventive Maintenance
ensure the lift is right for you as the end user (applicable for your use based on your physical abilities and the physical characteristics of your personal wheelchair). Become familiar with the proper operation of your lift before operating the lift by yourself.
This lift operator’s manual must be stored in the lift- mounted manual storage pouch when not in use.
Maintenance is necessary to ensure safe and troublefree lift operation. Preventive lift maintenance consisting of careful inspections of your lift system and cleaning the lift should be a part of your routine. Simple inspections can detect potential lift operational problems.
Regular preventive mainte- nance will reduce potential lift operation downtime and in- crease the service life of the lift, as well as enhancing safety.
During routine inspections, operate the lift through a mini- mum of one complete cycle and note the following:
•Do the automatic door(s) open fully (if equipped)?
•Does the lift safely clear the door(s) when unfolding and folding?
•Do the lift control switches function properly?
•Does the automatic roll stop operate properly?
•Do the handrails function properly?
•Is the power source adequate or weak?
Exposure to harsh weather elements, environment condi- tions, or heavy usage, etc. may require more frequent mainte- nance and lubrication proce- dures.
