9. The safety edges
Two direction-sensitive safety edges and one general safety edge have been
included in the Handicare Xclusive.
The direction-sensitive safety edges
The direction-sensitive safety edge prevents the lift from moving further in the
direction that is blocked.
However, the Handicare Xclusive can still be moved in the opposite direction to
remove the blockade.
The diagnostic code shows “4” or “6”
The following switches have been included in the direction-sensitive safety edge:
•
Footrest switches
•
Detection switches for the power pack
•
Detection switches for the front chassis
The handing of the safety edges is when sitting on the lift.
The general safety edges
The general safety edge prevents the lift from moving further in both directions.
The diagnostic code shows “0” when the toggle is moved in either direction when the
safety edge is obstructed.
The following switches have been included in the general safety edge:
•
Seat swivel switch
•
Overspeed governor switch
•
Key switch
•
The emergency stop
When the key switch or the emergency switch are activated, nothing will function
When the safety brake or the seat swivel switch are activated the lift won’t move, but
the option automatic swivel and powered footrest are still operable.
