Emergency stop
To activate emergency stop:
Depress the red emergency stop button on the control box.
Resetting:
Turn the button in the direction of the arrows until the button pops out.
To prevent battery discharge, we recommend that the emergency-stop button is pressed in
when the lift is not in use.
Emergency lowering
Manual emergency lowering:
For manual emergency lowering, turn the round plastic knob on the actuator clockwise.
Electrical emergency lowering:
For electrical emergency lowering, use the down button on the control box.
Brakes
Locking the wheels
Lock the rear wheels by pressing down on the brake pedals on both rear wheels with your
foot.
Wheels should not be locked during lifting, so that the lift can align itself with the patient’s
centre of gravity.
The only time the wheels should be locked is during lifting from the floor; otherwise, there is a
risk of the lift rolling and colliding with the patient’s head.
Locked wheels during lifting increase the risk of the lift tipping.
Unlocking the wheels
To release the wheel brakes, lift the brake pedals upwards with your foot.
