system from being compromised.
Service must be performed in order to restore 

functionality.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION 

PROCEDURE

Do not use the lift alone if you are not sure that you 

can maintain pressure on the control buttons for the 

duration of travel. 
If using the lift alone, and you do not have the 

optional phone equipped in the cab, it is best 

practice to have a cell phone with you in case of a 

malfunction that prevents the platform movement. 
If the lift malfunctions while occupied:

• 

Occupant should follow the directions located 

next to the platform controls and never try to 

evacuate the lift on their own. 

• 

Contact dealer and/or 911 (dealers phone 

number is written on the label next to the cab 

controls).

• 

Push in the Red Emergency Stop button on the 

cab control. If equipped, an alarm will sound.  

Once help arrives, they should follow the Emergency 

Lowering Procedure to evacuate the occupant. 

EMERGENCY LOWERING 

PROCEDURE

In the event that the lift becomes disabled with 

passengers on the platform that is not at a landing, 

it may be necessary/desirable to manually lower 

them prior to a technician arriving. 
In that case, a manual lowering mechanism is 

located beneath the top cap of the lift. A person 

other than the lift passenger(s) will be required to 

make their way to the top of the tower to perform 

this procedure. 

1.  Loosen seven (7) screws around the perimeter 

of the top cap with a Phillips head screwdriver.

2.  Lift the top cap partially and disconnect the 

cable between the top cap at the control 

board. Set the top cap aside. See Figure 6-8.

Figure 6-8

3.  Remove the two wingnuts holding down the 

manual lowering tools (1/4" wrench and 1/4" x 

3/8" drive socket). See Figure 6-9. 

Platform lifts should not be used for evacuation 
during emergencies. 

CAUTION

!

Never exit an elevated platform unless it is fully 
parked at a landing. Do not attempt to manually 
lower the device while in the platform.
