Operation Notes and Details
Belt-operated Side Entry
Outer Barrier
A
Automatic Floor Level Switch-
ing: When the platform unfolds
from the stowed position, the plat-
form stops automatically at oor
level when fully unfolded. When
raising the platform from ground
level, the platform automatically
stops at oor level when raised
fully.
Although the NL955 features
automatic oor level switching,
the lift operator (wheelchair pas-
senger or attendant), must view
the platform to be certain the
platform is properly positioned at
vehicle oor level and the bridge
plate is properly positioned when
a passenger is entering or exiting
the vehicle. If the lift platform
does not automatically stop at
oor level as outlined,
the UP switch is pressed and the
platform raises from ground level,
the inboard locator automatically
unfolds (rotates) to the horizon-
tal (bridging) position when it
reaches vehicle oor level. The
bridge plate must overlap the lift
base plate a minimum 1/2".
When the FOLD switch is
pressed and the platform folds
from oor level to the stow (verti-
cal) position, the bridge plate
automatically travels inboard to
the stowed position.
Interlock: The inboard locator
senses weight to prohibit lift op-
eration if occupied.
discontinue lift operation im-
mediately.
