The “quick-disconnect” hand-held
control switchbox is connected to
the pump module. “Quick-
disconnect” hand-held controls
are available with three types of
cable (standard, armored and
coiled).
The control box is equipped with
two color-coded rocker switches,
(UNFOLD/FOLD and DOWN/UP).
The switches activate the auto-
matic lift functions. Details
regarding the control switches
and their functions are provided in
the Pre-Lift Operation section
(page 14).
Lift Frame:
The lift frame
consists of the base plate, two
towers, the parallel arms, the
vertical arms, platform pivot arms
and the handrails. The two main
hydraulic cylinders are housed in
the parallel arms. The electrical/
hydraulic powered lift frame
components mechanically unfold,
lower, raise and fold the lift
platform assembly.
Platform Assembly:
The lift
platform assembly consists of the
steel tubing frame with grating
surface upon which the wheel-
chair is positioned, the outboard
roll stop, roll stop latch, the
inboard roll stop (fixed inboard roll
stop models only), and the
hydraulic cylinder assembly that
powers the outboard roll stop.

Latches:
The spring
loaded latches prevent the
platform from unfolding from the
stowed position in the event of
platform drift. Further details
