Loading a Power Chair
Parking the Chair on the Platform: Before loading the power chair, verify that the platform has been lowered all the way to the ground. Set your chair’s speed control at a slow speed so that you may maneuver comfortably onto the platform. You may drive onto the platform from either side. Park the chair such that it is centered on the platform.
Securing the Chair to the Platform: The Pioneer platform has a restraint attached to each corner of the platform. Each restraint has a hook at the end. Place each hook in either the anchor plate slot, or in each
To release, simply press the release tab, and remove the hooks.
Folding Seat Backs: If your chair has a folding seat back you may wish to fold it to the down position. This will allow you more clearance when loading the chair into the vehicle. Depending on the size of your chair, you may need to remove the head rest to provide for sufficient clearance.
Raising the Chair: Before raising, verify that the chair is secured to the platform. While holding the hand control stand to the side and away from the lift. Press the up button. The lift will raise and retract into the vehicle. The lift is retracted fully when the platform is fully inside of the vehicle and the lift’s motion stops. At this point release the button. Secure the hand control by placing it on the hook and loop patch attached to the lift. Close the rear door carefully taking notice of any baskets, backpacks or additional items attached to the chair that may be hit by the door.
