The raised front rollstop prevents slow and unintentional rolling off of the platform. It is not
intended to stop a fast-moving wheelchair, which might tip forward if the small front wheels
collide with the rollstop.
Do not operate with a load in excess of 600 lbs (273 kgs).
Keep arms, legs, and clothing away from moving lift parts.
The lift is intended for one wheelchair and its occupant. It is not designed to transport
standing passengers. Do not overload lift.
Refer to
Figure 2-3
. Do not stand in front of lift while deploying platform.
Keep others clear while operating lift.
Do not allow an untrained person to operate lift.
Careful supervision is necessary if used near children.
Do not allow anyone to stand on bridgeplate. A bent bridgeplate can interfere with the plat-
form as it raises and lowers.
Lock wheelchair brakes before moving platform (power chair users should turn off power
and set brake).
Use great care in wet conditions, because the wheelchair brakes are less effective if wheels
or platform are wet.
Never leave platform outside of vehicle. Return platform to stowed position after use.
Do not place an oversize wheelchair on platform if it is too large for the vehicle. The wheel-
chair must be able to pivot freely inside vehicle.
Read and understand these safety precautions. Review them periodically and ask other opera-
tors to read them as well. Contact an authorized Ricon dealer or call Ricon Product Support if
there are questions.
B. DAILY
