Lift Terminology
Introduction:

The Braun NL955 is consumer
oriented (designed to allow op-
eration by the wheelchair passen-
ger). NL955 lift models provide
fully automatic operation of all
lift functions as well as optional
automatic door operators (if so
equipped).
Lift models vary per platform size
(lift model numbers indicate lift
dimensions). A standard NL955
lift model is depicted in the Lift
Terminology Illustration. Refer to
the Lift Terminology Illustration

nents.
Lift operation procedures are
identical for all NL955 Series
lift models. The operating
instructions contained in this
manual and appearing on lift-
posted operating instructions
decals address the lift control
switches and the correspond-
ing lift functions. Instructions
are provided for manual opera-
tion of the lift in event of power
or equipment failure.
