LIFTING CAPABILITIES
The lift system is designed to lift a maximum weight of 400 lbs. (181 kg). Under no circumstances should
the lift system be made to exceed this weight limit. Subjecting the lift system to the strain of lifting more
than it is designed to may cause it to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility product and/or injury to the
lift operator. Refer to the mobility product specifications for information on the overall weight of the
mobility product before lifting with the lift system.
WARNING! Exceeding the maximum lifting capacity of 400 lbs. (181 kg) may cause the
lift system to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility product and/or injury to the lift
operator.
MANDATORY! Adding accessories, oversized batteries, or a different seat will increase the
weight of your mobility device. Verify with your authorized Pride Provider that the total
weight of your mobility device, including additions, DOES NOT exceed 400 lbs. (181 kg).
INSTALLATION
Your lift system is an exterior-rated lift designed for installation into vehicles. Read and fully understand
the installation instructions provided in this manual and related literature for your brand of vehicle before
installing the lift system. The distance between the top of the boom-arm and the mobility product should
not exceed 50 in. (127 cm) when the boom-arm is fully extended.
LIFTING NON-PRIDE PRODUCTS
The lift system is an extremely versatile device, which users may employ to lift items other than Pride
products. Pride has no control over such use, nor can Pride anticipate every possible use to which a lift
system may be put. Operating the lift system outside of the safe limits as discussed in this manual or using
the lift system to lift any item deemed by Pride to be incompatible with the lift system is done at the
operator’s own risk, and Pride accepts no liability for damage or injury resulting from such use.
PRE-LIFT INSPECTION
Inspect the lifting strap of the lift system before every use for twisting, fraying, and signs of wear. If signs
of wear become evident, have the strap replaced by your authorized Pride Provider.
WARNING! A frayed or worn lifting strap can snap, resulting in damage to the mobility
product being lifted and injury to the lift operator.
OPERATOR POSITIONING
Keep hands clear of the lifting strap while the lift system is lifting/lowering a mobility product. The oper-
ator of the lift should stand a safe distance from the unit being lifted/lowered to ensure that his/her feet are
never positioned under a raised mobility product.
TRANSPORT VEHICLE POSITIONING
Be sure your vehicle is parked on flat, level ground and the emergency brake is engaged before attempting
to lift a mobility product.
WARNING! Attempting to lift a mobility product when a vehicle is not on level ground will
cause the mobility product to swing toward or away from the vehicle, making it difficult
to get the mobility product into the vehicle.
