position. The standard stairlift has a maximum weight limit of 120kg (19

Operating Periods/Excessive Use
The stairlift has been designed to run for four minutes with a break of at
least six minutes afterwards. If you use the stairlift too often without taking a
break, the motor will not cool down between journeys and may become
damaged.

We recommend that the batteries in each remote control are renewed at
least every six months. This is the resposibilty of the user,

AUTION
:
Modifications which have not been expressly approved by the
manufacturer may void the warranty and may cause damage.
Your stairlift should be inspected and maintained by a Platinum
approved service engineer.
Hand Winding the Stairlift
If necessary, for example to release the safety gear after the OSG has
activated or to return the carriage from an over-run position, the stairlift can
be manually hand-wound using the supplied winding handle.
If the OSG has been activated, the carriage should only be hand-
wound in the upwards direction.
The batteries must be connected to release the brake before winding.
To hand-wind the stairlift:

Switch the On/Off switch (11) to the ‘0’ (Off) position.

Fully insert the winding handle into the Emergency Hand Wind
Mechanism Socket (5) and push in until it clicks, releasing the brake.

Keeping the handle fully inserted, carefully rotate it as needed.
If you rotate the handle clockwise, this will move the chair to the right.
If you rotate the handle anti-clockwise, this will move the chair to the
left.

Never use the stairlift when the winding handle is in the socket.
Upholstery
Carelessness with matches, cigarettes and so on can cause a fire. The
upholstery material used on your stairlift has been tested for compliance
with BS5852.
