Charging the battery with lift-mounted battery charger: With control box, battery charger, and
battery assembled, insert the battery charger plug into a standard 110V receptacle. A green light
signifying power and a yellow light signifying that the battery is charging will illuminate on the bat-
tery charger. When the battery is fully charged, the yellow light will shut off. The lift is now ready
for use.
Note: The patient lift will not operate during lift-mounted battery charging.
Charging the battery with wall-mounted battery charger: Remove the battery from its bracket on
the patient lift by placing your hand on top of the battery, curling your ngers behind the battery,
and pulling up on the metal handle. Pull the battery up and toward you to remove. Place the bat-
tery on top of the wall-mounted battery charger. A green light signifying power and a yellow light
signifying that the battery is charging will illuminate on the battery charger. When the battery is
fully charged, the yellow light will shut off. When battery charging is complete, place the battery
back on the patient lift. Ensure that the tabs on the battery are fully engaged with the bracket. The
lift is now ready for use.
Emergency Procedures (LF1040 only)
Emergency stop: The control box is equipped with a red Emergency Stop button. This button is to
be used in the event the hand control ceases to function correctly. To engage, hit the button rmly
with the palm of your hand. The button will lock in the depressed position, stopping all motor
functions. To disengage, turn the button clockwise, and it will return to its normal position.
Emergency lowering: The motor is equipped with an
Emergency Release, which is located on top of the motor
as shown in the picture at right. To engage, pull up on the
release, which will disengage the gearing in the cylinder,
and lower the patient. The emergency release is adjust-
able by turning the screw adjacent to the pull stem. Turn
the screw clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to
decrease the sensitivity of the release mechanism.
WARNING: Use caution when using the emergency
release. Pull back slowly on the release, which will
gradually lower the patient. Pulling back too quick-
ly could cause the patient to be lowered too rap-
idly, which could result in serious injury. Do not, un-
der any circumstances, use the emergency release
for lowering the patient when the hand control and
battery are operating correctly. The emergency re-
lease should not be used in lieu of the hand control
and battery.
