Liftkar SAL I 14
4.3.5 INADVERTENT BATTERY EJECTION
For all normal operations the battery is held securely by locking hooks. A
strong pull is required to remove it. Abuse of the LIFTKAR by moving
backwards very quickly, and striking a high step, or similar, will result in
the battery being ejected from its location.
If you pull the LIFTKAR up the stairs empty or without using the drive mechanism, it is
recommended to remove the battery. Firstly, this makes the LIFTKAR lighter and secondly, the
battery cannot jump out.
4.3.6 FAILURE TO NEGOTIATE STEPS "SQUARE-ON"
Failure to negotiate steps "square-on" will result in damage to the underside of the drive unit.
4.3.7 DRIVING ON A WINDING STAIRCASE
Please observe the following points when operating the stairclimber on spiral staircases:
The LIFTKAR moves inwards when climbing up, so:
For climbing UP start on the outside of the staircase.
The LIFTKAR moves outwards when going down, so:
For climbing DOWN start on the inside.
If you do start moving too close to the banisters/wall then shift the unit to the side by reversing (on a landing or
wider step if possible) and start again at a tighter angle.
