Attaching the airline tube to the lift
Should the gray rubber airline that connects the lift to
the hand control become disengaged from the front left
side of the lift it must be re

connected in order for the
lift to work properly.
The rubber airline may become disconnected for the
following reasons:
1) The lift is pulled along the track by the airline.
2) The tubing accidentally gets wrapped around an ob-
ject while a lift or transfer is being performed.
3) It is accidentally pulled out by the caregiver or the
individual being lifted.
The airline is connected to a gray rubber grommet locat-
ed on the front left side of the lift. Refer to figure 15A.

insert into the corresponding holes in the rub-

If the lift does not work properly, check to ensure that
the ridges on the gray rubber grommet on the underside
of the lift and the airline tubing are lined up properly. If
they are not lined up properly, then remove the airline,
line up the ridges and then re

insert it into the rubber
grommet. Perform the test as noted in the preceding par-
agraph. If there are still problems with the lift then con-
tact your local authorized dealer for service.
