OPERATION OF THE LIFT

Before operating the lift for the first time each 

day,  turn on the water and run the lift up and 

completely down two or three times to purge air 

from the system.  Always perform this operation 

before anyone is seated on the lift.  Once all air 

has been purged from the system, raise the seat 

to the up position.  

Note:  Purge the air from the lift every day.  Air 

in the system may cause the seat to drop several 

inches suddenly.  Make sure that the air has been 

purged from the system before allowing anyone 

to use the lift.

If  your unit has been fitted with the anti-rotation 

lock option,  insert the T-handle lock pin through 

the 1”x 2” tubing at the deck transfer position.  

This will prevent the lift from accidentally rotating while loading or unloading a person from the 

lift.  The only installation required for the locking mechanism is a 3/4”  diameter hole aligned 

with the T-handle lock in the desired stationary position. 

Once the person is seated rotate the seat until it is over the water and lower the seat slowly by 

opening the valve a little at a time.  Speed, both up and down, can be controlled by the amount of 

valve opening.

When exiting the pool,  position the person in the seat.  When the occupant is ready to go,  turn 

the valve to engage the water pressure and raise the seat.  Rotate the seat over the deck and lock 

in position to transfer.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

ROUTINE INSPECTION

1.  It is recommended that the unit be inspected periodically for damaged parts or excessive 

wear. 

2.  Check the screws, nuts, bolts, and hose clamps to be sure all are snug.  Clean any parts that 

show signs of corrosion and replace any worn or damaged parts.

3.  If the stainless steel has become discolored from chemical additives in the pool water or from 

a corrosive atmosphere,  it can be cleaned using a soft Scotchbrite® pad and a general purpose 

cleaner such as Formula 409® or Fantastic®.  Never use steel wool pads to clean the lift.  After
