2. Control Switch. Mounted on the top of the main frame, the three-position control
switch directs current through one set of circuits to turn the drive screw one direction
and a second set to reverse rotation. The center position is a neutral or “off”
position. Single switch operation allows the operator to maintain a firm grip on
the extension handle with his or her left hand while gripping the right side main
handle in the right hand and operating the switch with the right thumb.
3. Motor and Solenoids. The 1.2 H.P. motor and four solenoids are mounted in the
motor housing at the base of the main frame. The solenoids are electrical devices
which establish circuits for current flow as the control switch is operated.
4. Charge Level Indicator. A push button on the side of the battery housing allows you
to obtain a direct reading of the charge left in the battery. The charge level meter is
divided into green, yellow, and red zones and when the push button is depressed
the dial will indicate the remaining charge. If the dial is well into the green area,
the battery is well charged. As the dial drops lower into the green and toward the
yellow charging is advisable before attempting any heavy move, particularly if the
move involves stairs. If the dial is in the yellow or red zones, no load should be
moved until the battery is charged or replaced. See Section IX B for battery
charging instructions.
5. Charging Plug. It is not necessary to remove the battery housing cover to charge
the battery. To simplify charging, the battery terminals are wired to a charge
receptacle which is accessible on the side of the battery housing. The battery
charger provided with your Ultra Lift has a hard-wired charging plug that
interfaces with the receptacle in the battery box. See Section IX B.
6. Transit Charging System. To charge your Ultra Lift directly from the 12 volt
system of your vehicle, the most effective technique is to purchase an inverter
that will plug into the vehicle power outlet. Plug the Ultra Lift battery
charger into the inverter. The charge plug on the battery charger then connects
to the Ultra Lift through the receptacle in the battery housing. This system will
not be required at all if you able to charge your Ultra Lift at the end of each
workday, as is recommended.
