Maintenance and Lubrication Schedule
Maintenance and
lubrication procedures
must be performed as
speci
fi
ed by an
authorized service
technician. Failure to
do so may result in
serious bodily injury
and/or property
damage.
WARNING
Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure safe,
trouble free operation. Inspecting the lift for any wear,
damage or other abnormal conditions should be a part
of the transit agency daily service program. Simple
inspections can detect potential problems.
The maintenance and lubrication procedures speci
fi
ed
in the following schedule must be performed by a Braun
authorized service representative at the scheduled in-
tervals according to the number of cycles. NUVL Series
lifts are equipped with a cycle counter (digital display
built into the electronic control board).
NUVL Series lifts are equipped with hardened pins and
self-lubricating bushings to decrease wear, provide
smooth operation and extend the service life of the lift.
When servicing the lift at the recommended intervals,
inspection and lubrication procedures speci
fi
ed in the
previous sections should be repeated. Clean compo-
nents and the surrounding area before applying lubri-
cants. LPS2 General Purpose Penetrating Oil is recom-
mended where Light Oil is called out. Use of improper
lubricants can attract dirt or other contaminants which
could result in wear or damage to the components.
Platform components exposed to contaminants when
lowered to the ground may require extra attention. Lift
components requiring grease are lubricated during
assembly procedures. When replacing these com-
ponents, be sure to apply grease during installation
procedures. Speci
fi
ed lubricants are available from The
Braun Corporation (part numbers provided on previous
page).
All listed inspection, lubrication and maintenance pro-
cedures should be repeated at 750 cycle intervals
following the scheduled 4500 cycles maintenance pro-
cedures. These intervals
are a general guideline
for scheduling mainte-
nance procedures and
will vary according to lift
use and conditions. Lifts
exposed to severe condi-
tions (weather, environ-
ment, contamination,
heavy usage, etc.) may
require inspection and
maintenance procedures
to be performed more
often than speci
fi
ed.
Maintenance Indicator:
The Lift Ready green
LED mounted on the hand-helt pendant storage bracket,
will change color to yellow after every 750 cycles. The
yellow LED will not affect the functions of the lift, but is a
reminder to complete necessary maintenance and lubri-
cation procedures.
Once the lift has been serviced, press the CYCLE button
(located below LCD display on the control board) until
the Lift Ready LED changes back to green. The CYCLE
button also clears the lift cycle count (since last service)
but not the lifetime cycle count.
Discontinue lift use immediately if maintenance and
lubrication procedures are not properly performed, or if
there is any sign of wear, damage or improper operation.
Contact your sales representative or call The Braun Cor-
poration. One of our national Product Support represen-
tatives will direct you to an authorized service technician
who will inspect your lift.
