Lubricating the Lift
The Invacare lift is designed for minimum maintenance. However, a six (6) month check and lubrication should ensure continued safety and reliability.
Keep lift and slings clean and in good working order. Any defect should be noted and reported to your dealer as soon as possible.
The casters MUST swivel and roll smoothly. A light grease (waterproof auto lubricant) may be applied to the ball bearing swivel of the casters once a year. Apply more frequently if the casters are exposed to extreme moist conditions.
Refer to FIGURE 7.1 for lubrication points. Lubricate all pivot points. Wipe all excess lubricant from lift surface.

Detecting Wear and Damage
It is important to inspect all stressed parts, such as slings, swivel bar, cradle attachment and any pivot for slings for signs of cracking, fraying, deformation or deterioration. Replace any defective parts IMMEDIATELY and ensure that the lift is not used until repairs are made.
Cleaning the Sling and the Lift
The sling should be washed regularly. Refer to the sling owner’s manual for instructions. A soft cloth, dampened with water and a small amount of mild detergent, is all that is needed to clean the patient lift. The lift can be cleaned with non‐abrasive cleaners.
