Lift Operating Instructions
Control Switch Functions:
folding handrails and a dual
outer barrier system.
Before lift operation, park the
vehicle on a level surface, away
from vehicular traffic. Place the
vehicle transmission in “Park”
and engage the parking brake.
Open manual doors fully, being
certain the doors are secured in
the fully open position.
It is the responsibility of the lift
operator (attendant) to prop-
erly open, secure and close the
vehicle lift doors, to activate any
auxiliary interlock (if equipped),
to load and unload the wheel-
chair passenger (or standee) on
and off the lift platform, and to
properly activate all lift functions.
In event of power or equipment
failure, refer to the Manual Oper-

passenger is on the
platform, the:
• Passenger must

OPEN DOOR(S) AND SECURE
Manually open door(s) fully and
secure.
TO DEPLOY PLATFORM:
1. Stand clear and press the UP
switch until the platform extends
fully. Release switch.
2. Pull handrail detent pins, lift
handrails up to vertical position and
reinsert detent pins.
3. Lift outer barrier to vertical position.
4. Press the UP switch until the plat-
form stops (raises to floor level)
and inner roll stop unfolds to floor
level. Release switch.
TO UNLOAD PASSENGER:
1. Read Note below! Load pas-
senger onto platform and lock
wheelchair brakes.
Note: Passenger must be
positioned fully inside yellow
boundaries and outer barrier must
be UP.
2. Press DOWN switch until the entire
platform reaches ground level and
the outer barrier unfolds fully
(ramp position). Release switch.
3. Unlock wheelchair brakes and
unload passenger from platform.
Note: Outer barrier must be fully
unfolded (ramp position) until the
entire wheelchair (or standee) has
crossed the outer barrier.
UP: From the stowed position, pressing the UP
switch deploys (extends) the platform fully. Release
the UP switch once the platform has extended fully
in order to deploy the outer barrier and handrails.
The platform will continue to raise to floor level if the
UP switch is not released and handrail procedures
may be more difficult (floor level height varies per
vehicle). Pull the handrail detent pins and lift the
handrails to the vertical position. Reinsert the de-
tent pins after the handrails are raised. Lift the outer
barrier to the vertical position. Press the UP switch
until the platform stops (raises to floor level), and the
inner roll stop unfolds to floor level.
From ground level, the UP function will first au-
tomatically raise (rotate) the outer barriers to the
upright (vertical) position. The platform then raises
to floor level position. Note: The lift will not raise
if the outer barrier is not in the UP position (built-in
safety feature).
DOWN: The DOWN function lowers the platform
to ground level and then unfolds the outer barriers
to the ramp (horizontal) position. From the stowed
position, the lift will extend fully and then lower.
STOW: The STOW function raises or lowers the
platform to stow level and then moves the platform
inward (retracts) to the stow position. Handrails
and Outer Barrier: The tall outer barrier and the
handrails must be folded down to the platform
(horizontal) position before stowing (retracting)
the platform. The handrail detent pins must be re-
inserted before stowing the platform also. Note:
The lift will not stow with weight on the platform
(built-in safety feature).
DOOR CLOSE: This function is not applicable
for “Public-Use” NUVL lift models (manual door
system and attendant operated lift).
Note: If any of these functions do not occur as
described, discontinue lift use immediately and
contact your sales representative or call The
Braun Corporation at 1-800-THE LIFT
®
. One of
our national Product Support representatives will
direct you to an authorized service repairman who
will inspect your lift.
Handrails and Dual Outer Barrier:
The folding handrails and tall outer
barrier are manually operated. The
spring-loaded outer barrier (tall barrier)
and the handrails rest on the platform
when the lift is not in use. The outer
barrier must be raised to the vertical
position and the handrails must be
lifted to the vertical position whenever
a passenger is on the platform.
The tall outer barrier and the handrails
must be folded down to the platform
(horizontal) position before stowing
the lift. The handrails fold down onto
the outer barrier to secure the barrier
in the horizontal position.
Each handrail is secured with two de-
tent pins (one pin at the base of each
vertical support tube). The detent pins
must be removed before the handrails
can be folded or unfolded and the
detent pins must be reinserted after
folding or unfolding the handrails.
TO LOAD PASSENGER:
1. Read Notes below! Load pas-
senger onto platform and lock
wheelchair brakes.
Note: Outer barrier must be fully
unfolded (ramp position) until the
entire wheelchair (or standee) has
crossed the outer barrier.
Note: Passenger must be
positioned fully inside yellow
boundaries.
2. Press UP switch to fold outer bar-
rier UP fully (vertical), raise the
platform to floor level and unfold
inner roll stop to floor level. Re-
lease switch.
3. Unlock wheelchair brakes and
unload passenger from platform.
TO STOW PLATFORM:
1. Fold outer barrier down to platform
(horizontal) position.
2. Pull handrail detent pins, fold hand-
rails down to platform (horizontal)
position and reinsert detent pins.
3. Press STOW switch until platform
stops (retracts fully). Release
switch.
CLOSE DOOR(S)
Manually close door(s) fully.
Hand-held Pendant Control:
The hand-held attendent's pendant control is
equipped with four push button switches (DOOR,
STOW, DOWN and UP). The momentary switches
activate the automatic lift functions. Simply press
the switch labeled for the intended function.
When there is power to the lift, the lift function labels
illuminate to identify the functions.
