I. INTRODUCTION
he RICON Mirage F9B Series Personal Use Wheelchair Lift is an under-floor, electro-hydraulic
wheelchair lift for use by persons requiring assistance for entering and exiting a vehicle. The
patented movement provides smooth, safe entry and exit. It is operated by either the wheelchair
occupant, an attendant, or the vehicle driver. By using the lift control switches, the lift extends
(or deploys) from the vehicle and rises to vehicle floor height. The user boards the large non-
skid platform and the operator uses the control switches to lower the platform to the ground. Af-
ter the user departs, the platform is raised and retracted (stowed).
The lift is an underfloor type employ-
ing a hydraulic pump that easily lifts
660 pounds (300 kilograms), which
represents the lifts maximum capac-
ity. The lift also contains a manual
backup pump and manual rollstop
control knob. If the lift loses electri-
cal power, two or more people can
raise and/or lower the lift manually.
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 this manual. Once the lift is installed, it is very important that the lift be
properly maintained by following the Ricon recommended cleaning, lubrication, and inspection
instructions.
