SECTION 11—CARE AND

MAINTENANCE

NOTE: Follow the maintenance procedures described in this manual to keep your patient lift in continuous service.

The Invacare Patient Lift is designed to provide a maximum of safe, efficient and satisfactory service with minimum care and maintenance.

All parts of the Invacare Lift are made of the best grades of steel, but metal to metal contact will wear after considerable use.

There is no adjustment or maintenance the casters, other than cleaning, lubrication and checking axle and swivel bolts for tightness. Remove all debris, etc. from the wheel and swivel bearings. If any parts are worn, replace these parts IMMEDIATELY.

If you question the safety of any part of the lift, contact your Dealer IMMEDIATELY and advise him/her of your problem.

Hydraulic Pump

All parts of the Hydraulic Pump are precision machined, then carefully assembled and tested to ensure reliable service. The pump assembly is completely enclosed and sealed with Neoprene rings to prevent leakage of hydraulic oil. A small amount of oil (about a drop) will accumulate around the piston from time to time and should be removed with a facial tissue.

WARNING

The hydraulic pump is sealed at the factory and if service is required, the pump unit MUST be returned to the factory for repair. DO NOT attempt to open the hydrau- lic pump or obtain local service. This will void the warranty and might result in dam- age and costly repair. Consult your Dealer or write Invacare for information.

Lubrication

The Invacare lift is designed for minimum maintenance; however, a six 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 grease more frequently if the casters are exposed to extreme moist conditions.

The connection between the mast and the base should be cleaned and coated with petroleum jelly prior to assembly.
