K-SERIES PUBLIC INTRODUCTION
he RICON K-Series
®
Public Use wheelchair lift provides wheelchair access to vans and buses. The patented
movement provides smooth, safe entry and exit, and can lift up to 800 pounds (364 kilograms). The platform is
raised with an electro-hydraulic pump. The pump has a built-in manual backup pump, allowing it to be raised or
lowered manually.
By using the lift control switches, the platform is unfolded from the vehicle (deployed). The passenger boards the large
non-skid platform and the operator uses the control switches to gently lower the platform to the ground. After the pas-
senger departs, the platform is raised and folded into the vehicle (stowed). The lift platform splits and folds horizontally
when stowed.
This manual contains operation and maintenance instructions and a troubleshooting guide for the lift. It is important to
user safety that the lift operators be completely familiar with the Operating Instructions chapter of the operator manual
(32DSSK05). Once the lift is installed, it is very important that the lift be properly maintained by following the Ricon rec-
ommended cleaning, lubrication, and inspection instructions.
