Pre-Lift Operation Notes
Operation Procedure Review:
The wheelchair lift user and/or
attendant should review the
safety precautions and operation
procedures appearing in this
manual with your wheelchair lift
sales representative (dealer),
before attempting lift operation.
Become familiar with the proper
operation of your lift before
operating the lift by yourself.
Operate the lift through all
functions with your sales repre-
sentative on hand to ensure the
proper use and operation of the
wheelchair lift is understood. The
sales representative should also
instruct and demonstrate manual
operation procedures. Be
certain your sales representative
instructs and demonstrates the
proper reengagement procedure
of the manual cable release
system (see pages 15-19). Any
questions or concerns can be
answered by the sales represen-
tative at that time.
Do not operate your lift if you
suspect lift damage, wear or any
abnormal condition. Discontinue
lift use immediately and contact
an authorized Braun Corporation
dealer in your area or call The
Braun Corporation at 1-800-THE
LIFT. One of our national service
representatives will direct you to
an authorized service repairman
who will inspect your lift.
Preventive Maintenance:
Maintenance is necessary to
ensure safe and trouble-free lift
operation. General preventive
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 maintenance
will reduce potential lift operation
downtime and increase the
service life of the lift, as well as
possibly detecting potential
hazards. Exposure to harsh
weather elements or environmen-
tal conditions may require more
frequent maintenance and
lubrication procedures. See the
Maintenance and Lubrication
section for further details.
Cold Climate Recommenda-
tions: The vehicle in which the
lift is installed should be stored in
a garage or other sheltered place
if possible, especially during
inclement weather conditions.
When the lift is not in use, the lift
should be in the stowed position
to keep foreign objects, rain, ice,
snow, etc., from entering through
the lift opening or building up on
the platform surface.

Discontinue lift use
immediately if any lift
component does not
operate properly.
Failure to do so may
result in serious
bodily injury and/or
property damage.
Lift Operating Instructions ad-
dress the lift control switches and
the corresponding lift functions.
Separate instructions are pro-
vided for operation of manual
bridge plates (inboard roll stops)
and handrails that may be
present on your particular lift
model. Fold handrails down
before stowing lift.
In event of power or equipment
failure, refer to the Manual
Operating Instructions section.
Before lift operation, park the
vehicle on a level area, away
from vehicle traffic. Place the
vehicle transmission in “Park” and
engage the parking brake.
Vehicle Lift Door(s): Open
manual doors fully, being certain
the doors are secured in the fully
open position before operating
the lift. If your vehicle is equipped
with optional automatic door
operators, the doors will open
when the UP or DOWN switch is
pressed. The automatic door
operators will close when DOOR
CLOSE switch is pressed (only if
the lift platform is in the fully
stowed position).
