If problems are not resolved by the suggested means, please contact your
dealer or Sunrise Medical Technical Service department.
Maintenance
12
A major service undertaken by an authorized service agent every 12 months
is a minimum requirement.
Maintenance inspection points are suggested by the manufacturer and are a
minimum requirement. By continuing to use the lift without replacing the listed
parts in this maintenance inspection checklist, caregiver and user safety is
greatly compromised.
Contact your authorized supplier or Sunrise Medical Technical Service before
opening the HPL600. Alterations made to the HPL600 by someone other than
a technician may cause serious injury.

PROBLEM:
The unit does not work when you press
the up or down buttons on the handset.
The unit starts and stops repetitively.
The lift emits a “beep” during utilization.
The unit may stop lifting but you can
still lower it.
Charge indicator on the control box
(green-red) does not light up when the
battery is being charged.
Battery is always dead after a few
transfers (3 to 5).
The light on the control box shows green
when the lift is plugged in yet the lift
will only do one or two transfers.
The light on the control box always
lights up red. It does not turn to green
after an overnight charge.
Lift feels loose (Mast/Base joint loose).
Casters/Brakes noisy or stiff (fluff or
debris in bearings).
Noisy or dry sound from pivots (needs
lubrication).
TO CHECK:
- Make sure the handset is plugged correctly into the
unit.
- Is the emergency stop button pressed down? Turn
the button clockwise to allow it to ”pop” out.
- Is the battery charged?
- Plug the lift in and check the light on the control
box. If the light remains red, leave the lift plugged
in the control box for approximately 2 hours.
- If all of the previous points have been checked
without success, you probably have a motor or
electric problem, contact your Sunrise Medical
representative.
- If the load is more than safe working load, the
unit will not work due to an overload protection
on the motor.
- Has the lift been making a “beeping” sound? The
battery is low and needs to be charged.
- Batteries are low, recharge them.
- Is the charger plugged into a standard outlet?
- Replace battery with a new one, the life of the
current one is probably nearly over.
- Replace the battery.
- Call your dealer or representative.
- Using a 5 mm allen key, tighten the 2 bolts at
base.
- Refer to casters in the "Maintenance" section in
this manual.
- Refer to lubrication in the "Maintenance" section
in this manual.
