Final inspection
• The RiseAtlas lifting unit must be installed and first-time inspected by authorized personnel (inspector) in accordance
with the installation instructions provided by Handicare AB. Periodic inspection of the equipment should be undertaken
at least once a year. Original spare parts should be used and service/maintenance of the equipment should be in ac-
cordance with the manual.
• Check to ensure no parts in pakage.
• Check and enure that the lift has no signs of damage after transportation.
• Check to ensure that the emergency stop is functioning by pulling it out, and then pressing the UP or DOWN button.
If nothing happens, the emergency stop is working properly.
• Check the entire length of the strap for signs of damage and inspect seams for wear. Press the up button and run the
strap all the way up. Then, press the down button and run the strap all the way down.
• Test lift function by lifting a person (not a patient) using an approved sling. At the same time, check both the manual
and electrical emergency lowering function with someone in the lift. See section on Emergency lowering.
• Check to ensure that the rail system is equipped with end stops.
• Check the hand control cable for signs of wear.
• Check to ensure that hand control markings coincide with lift functions.
• The user/attendant shall always pay attention to and report any unusual noises or vibration of the equipment.
NOTE!
Before the lift is used for the first time it must be charged for at least 3 hours. See section on charging the lift.
RiseAtlas is shipped with the emergency stop activated to prevent battery discharge during transport or long-term
storage.
Always keep the key for the emergency lowering device close to the lift.
All personnel who use the lift must be informed of where the key is kept.
