Contacting the Electrician
As mentioned previously, there are installation tasks that require a licensed, certified Electrician.
⚠
DANGER All wiring
must
be performed by a licensed, certified Electrician. If someone who is
not a certified Electrician attempts these tasks, they could damage the Lift or be
electrocuted, resulting in serious injury or even death.
The Electrician needs to:
•
Connect a power source to the Master Power Unit . A power source is required. The
Power Unit comes with a pigtail for wiring to a power source. Have your Electrician connect a
power cord with plug on the electrical box on the Lift (for connection to a power outlet) or have
them wire it directly into the electrical system at the Lift location.
•
Connect the Control Stands to the MPU . A power source is required.
• Install a Power Disconnect Switch . Ensures you can quickly and completely interrupt
electrical power to the Lift in the event of an electrical circuit fault, emergency situation, or when
equipment is undergoing service or maintenance.
•
Install a Thermal Disconnect Switch . Optional. Ensures the equipment shuts down in the
event of an overload or an overheated motor. Refer to Install a Thermal Disconnect Switch
for more information. The motor on the Power Unit that comes with the Lift is not thermally
protected.
The Electrician is responsible for providing:
•
an appropriate plug to attach to the Power Unit
• an appropriate Power Cord that goes from the power source to the plug on the Power Unit
•
a Thermal Disconnect Switch
