OPERATING CONTROLS FOR THE OXFORD ADVANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Leg adjustment
The legs on the Oxford Advance are adjustable for width. The legs can be opened to enable
access around armchairs or wheelchairs. For transferring and negotiating narrow doorways and
passages the lift legs should be in the closed position.
To achieve the adjustment, the leg adjuster pedal, located at the rear of the base, is compressed
right (DOWN) to open the legs outwards and left (UP) to close the legs. The adjustment can be
carried out with the patient in the lift, but whether loaded or unloaded the adjustment should be
made when the lift is moving.
WARNING
Never lift with the legs in the closed/transport position. The closed position is for storage
and transport only.
2. Castors and Braking
The lift has two braked castors, which can be applied for parking. When lifting, the castors should
be left free and un-braked, so that the lift will then be able to move to the centre of gravity of the
lift. DO NOT apply the brakes because if the brakes are applied the patient might swing to the
centre of gravity and this may prove disconcerting and uncomfortable.
3. Raising and lowering the boom (electric models)
The movement of the boom is achieved by a powerful electric actuator, which is controlled by
a simple hand control unit. The hand control has two buttons with directional arrows UP and
DOWN. The actuator stops automatically at the limit of travel in both directions. The hand control
plugs into a socket at the base of the control box. There is a hook on the rear of the hand control,
which allows it to be “parked” on the mast or boom when not in use.
