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,
troublefree 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 sched-
uled intervals 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 com-
ponents and the surrounding area before applying
lubricants. LPS2 General Purpose Penetrating Oil is
recommended where Light Oil is called out. Use of im-
proper lubricants can attract dirt or other contaminants
which could result in wear or damage to the compo-
nents. Platform components exposed to contaminants
when lowered to the ground may require extra atten-
tion. Lift components requiring grease are lubricated
during assembly procedures. When replacing these
components, be sure to apply grease during installation
procedures. Speci
fi
ed lubricants are available from
The Braun Corporation (part numbers below).
All listed inspection, lubrication and maintenance
procedures should be repeated at 750 cycle intervals
following the scheduled 4500 cycle maintenance proce-
dures. These intervals
are a general guideline
for scheduling mainte-
nance procedures and
will vary according to
lift use and conditions.
Lifts exposed to severe
conditions (weather,
environment, contami-
nation, heavy usage,
etc.) may require
inspection and main-
tenance procedures
to be performed more
often than speci
fi
ed.
Maintenance Indicator:
The Lift Ready green LED
mounted on top of the pump cover 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 lubrication.
Once the lift has been serviced, press the CYCLE but-
ton (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 Corporation. One of our national Product
Support representatives will direct you to an autho-
rized service technician who will inspect your lift.
