THE PAL - PORTABLE AQUATIC LIFT
Product Overview
The PAL-Portable Aquatic Lift is a portable lift system designed so that individuals with disabilities and
mobility impairments can have universal access to any type of swimming pool or spa. The PAL is
powered by a 24 volt rechargeable battery operated by a screw-driven electronic actuator that provides
the lifting and turning motions. S.R. Smith has designed the safest possible lift system, following all
instructions in the owner’s manual, and all product labels is necessary to achieve safe, reliable and
proper performance of the lift and avoid injury. This design ensures consistent safe operation and
minimizes service problems. The PAL is designed to provide flexibility for aquatic facilities seeking to
provide access to more than one pool or spa, or to accommodate a user’s desire to enter a single pool in
multiple locations. The PAL is available in a Hi-Lo version for facilities with both in-ground pools and
above-ground spas, as well as a Spa version for above-ground pools and spas. The maximum lift
capacity for all PAL models is 300 lb/136 kg. Only persons healthy enough for water activities should use
the PAL. Users should consult with their physician to determine if water activities are appropriate for the
User.
WARNING: The PAL lift is designed to transfer (lift) users from the deck surrounding the
swimming pool/spa into the water and back again. It is not designed to transport users from place
to place. Serious injury can result if the lift is moved while a user is in the seat.
