2.3.1
Identification of the lift
Before beginning the installation, make sure you have correctly identified the type of lift as the installation instructions may vary for
different types.
To do so, check the identification sticker that is applied on the cassette. Make sure you have the technical information and manuals
for the correct lift type.
2.3.2
Vehicle requirements
Compare the voltage of the vehicle batteries with the voltage of the hydraulic pump unit of the wheelchair lift.
Verify if the vehicle chassis and body are strong enough to support the load and moment created by the wheelchair lift at
maximum rated capacity. Refer to the Body Builder Guidelines of the OEM vehicle manufacturer for details.
Check the stability of the vehicle and the weight over the axles with the addition of a wheelchair lift loaded to maximum capacity.
The weights indicated in the technical documentation and price list are theoretical and approximate and may vary from one
wheelchair lift installation to another.
Verify the presence of proper reinforcements where the fitting bracket will be bolted to the structure.
Remove all objects that are mounted in the mounting space required for the wheelchair lift (RUP, spare wheel carrier, pallet
racks, tool boxes, etc.). If necessary, consult with the OEM vehicle manufacturer for replacement solutions (e.g. special spare
wheel carriers, exhaust pipe modifications, etc.). Duly prepare the area where the cassette will be placed. Prepare the cut outs
in the stair compartment and reinforce the structure if needed. Prior to any body- or door area modification, always contact the
bus manufacturer for instructions and permission.
