Maintenance and Lubrication
Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure safe,
troublefree operation. Inspecting the lift for any
wear, damage or other abnormal conditions should
be a part of all transit agencies’s daily service
program. Simple inspections can detect potential
problems. The maintenance and lubrication proce-
dures specified in the following schedule must be
performed by a Braun authorized service represen-
tative at the scheduled intervals according to the
number of cycles. NHTSA NUVL Series lifts are
equipped with a cycle counter (digital display built
into the electronic control board).
NUVL Series lifts are equipped with hardened pins
and self-lubricating bushings to decrease wear,
provide smooth operation and extend the service
life of the lift.
When servicing the lift at the recommended inter-
vals, inspection and lubrication procedures speci-
fied in the previous sections should be repeated.
Clean the components and the surrounding area
before applying lubricants. LPS2 General Pur-
pose Penetrating
Oil is recommended
where Light Oil is
called out. Use of
improper lubricants
can attract dirt or
other contaminants
which could result
in wear or damage
to the components.
Platform components
exposed to contami-
nants when lowered
to the ground may
require extra atten-
tion.
Maintenance and
lubrication proce-
dures must be per-
formed as specified
by an authorized
service technician.
Failure to do so may
result in serious
bodily injury and/or
property damage.

Lift components requiring grease are lubricated
during assembly procedures. When these compo-
nents are replaced, grease must be applied during
installation procedures. Specified lubricants are
available from The Braun Corporation (part num-
bers provided on page 41).
