Hand control
Connection of hand control to lift unit
The outlet for the hand control is under if the lift unit, fig 1. Connect the hand control firmly.
Raising/lowering
The buttons with the black arrows raise and lower the lift strap. Raising/lowering is interrupted
as soon as pressure on the buttons is released, fig 2. The lift unit can also be activated with
the buttons for raising/lowering.
ON/OFF via hand control
The hand control is equipped with a green button (ON) to activate the lift unit and a button
(OFF) to shut it off (3). The lift unit automatically shuts off after 15 minutes of inactivity. Normally,
the lift can be activated via the green (ON) button before use.
Night light
RiseAtlas is equipped with night lighting, which will be activated by pressing and holding the
ON button on the hand control for 3 seconds. The LED lamp lights for 15 minutes if it is not
inactivated via the OFF button on the hand control.
Activate/start the lift unit
The lift unit is activated by pressing the green button (ON) or the Up- or Down-button on the
hand control. When this is done the battery symbol on the lift unit´s information display is lit for
2 seconds, showing the current battery status. If the battery symbol does not light and the lift
unit is not activated, check that the emergency stop is not activated (pulled out).
Active safety
RiseAtlas has a built-in slack strap switch requiring that, in order to be manoeuvered up or
down, RiseAtlas must be loaded with at least 2 kg or its own weight. This is a safety feature
that prevents a slack lift strap from being winded in or out from the lift unit causing a short fall
when next in use.
RiseAtlas automatically stops if the lift strap is unloaded, for example if it is lowered onto a
table.e.g., when the sling bar is lowered to a bed. If this happens, the lift strap must be
manually stretched in order to be manoeuvered up or down.
If the lift strap is twisted when lifting upwards, the lift unit automatically stops and can only be
manoeuvred down. In order to save battery the lift unit automatically turns off after 15 minutes
of inactivity.
Tension release
When the top limit switch has been activated it will reverse the strap 5 mm to clear the
pressure from the switch. This action will take place after the up button has been deactivated.
