Maintenance and Lubrication

All

 listed inspection, lubrication and maintenance 

procedures should be repeated at “750 cycle” 
intervals following the scheduled “4500 Cycles” 
maintenance.  These intervals are a general 
guideline for scheduling maintenance procedures 
and will vary according to lift use and conditions.  
Lifts exposed to severe conditions (weather, 
environment, contamination, heavy usage, etc.) 
may require inspection and maintenance proce-

Maintenance Indicator: 

 The Lift Ready green 

LED mounted on top of the pump cover will begin 
to blink after every 750 cycles.  The blinking LED 
will not affect the functions of the lift, but is a 

reminder to complete necessary maintenance and  
lubrication.  Once the lift has been serviced, fully 
stow the lift.  Once stowed, press the UP button 
on the hand pendant and the Floor Level Set but-
ton on the back side of the pump cover until the 
Lift Ready green LED stops blinking.

Discontinue lift use immediately

 if maintenance 

and lubrication procedures are not properly per-
formed, or if there is any sign of wear, damage or 
improper operation.  Contact your sales represen-
tative or call The Braun Corporation at 1-800-THE
LIFT

®

.  One of our national Product Support repre-

sentatives will direct you to an authorized service 
technician who will inspect your lift.
