Lift Terminology
Introduction
Braun CL917 Century Series
lifts are ADA compliant and
commercial oriented (intended
for operation by an attendant).
CL917 Series lift models can be
equipped with left or right side
pump modules as needed. Lift
model numbers with suffix “F”
are right side (front) pump-
equipped and model numbers
without suffix “F” are equipped
with a left side (rear) pump. A
left side pump-equipped lift
model is depicted in the Lift
Terminology Illustration. Right
side pump lift models are a
mirrored image of rear pump
models (pump module located
on opposite end of base plate).
Refer to the Lift Terminology
Illustration for identification of
lift components.
Lift operation procedures are
identical for all CL917 Series lift
models. The operating instruc-
tions contained in this manual
and appearing on lift-posted
operating instructions decals,
address the lift control switches
and the corresponding lift
functions. Instructions are
provided for manual operation
of the lift in event of power or
equipment failure.
