How to Use the Ergolift 2
13
Anti-crush Feature
To prevent damage or injury, the motor on
the lift has a limit switch that recognizes
when the boom is being lifted or pressed
upward. This limit switch will stop the
motor until the boom is no longer being
lifted or pressed upward. This will ensure
that the motor stops if the boom is
unknowingly being lowered onto an object
or patient. To check this feature, press the
button on the handset or control box then lift
up the boom. The motor will stop.
Battery Information
WARNING: Do not drop the battery
because it may cause internal damage
that is not visible. It may lose its energy to
recharge.
Due to internal damage caused when
the battery is dropped, the battery may
indicate it is fully charged, when in fact
it cannot hold a full charge. A green
light indicated on the charger may not
accurately reflect a full charge on a
damaged battery.
NEVER attempt to use a battery that
appears to be damaged or dented.
DO NOT store the battery near a heat
source. Heat will damage it.
Always keep metal battery contacts
clean.
•
24 Vdc, 7.5 Ah rechargeable battery.
•
Provides 80-100 transfers per battery
charge (may vary depending on patient
weight and battery condition).
Life cycle (number of charging cycles) of
the battery is largely dependent on the depth
of discharge in each cycle. The more the
battery is drained, the shorter its lifespan.
The life of the battery is also related to such
factors as varying temperatures and rest
periods between charge and discharge.
CAUTION: To prolong battery life, plug the
unit in an outlet WHENEVER THE LIFT IS
NOT IN USE.
The battery will not overcharge.
BHM uses sealed lead-acid batteries.
Contrary to nickel-cadmium, BHM
batteries do not have any memory effect.
Therefore, batteries should not be
completely drained before recharging
them.
CAUTION: Do not drain the battery
excessively. This will dramatically reduce
the battery life span.
If the low battery buzzer sounds, be sure
to recharge the battery as soon as
possible.
Charging the Battery
WARNING: Do not operate the charger
unit with a damaged cord or if the unit has
been damaged.
DO NOT forcibly bend the power cord or
place a heavy object on it. This will
damage the cord and may cause a fire or
electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not place the unit in
locations that are:
•
Extremely hot;
•
Dusty or dirty;
•
Humid;
•
Moving or vibrating.
The recharging steps should be as follows:
Plug the power cord into a standard three-
prong outlet.
Check the charging indicator light to ensure
that it is illuminated.
WARNING: When the battery is low, the
low battery indicator emits an audible
intermittent beep and the red light
illuminates.
