CAUTION : During the emergency operations
do not forget that the safety arms are not fixed in
the opening position.
CAUTION: In case of a system failure or trip-
ping of the safety gear, call in an authorised VIMEC
technician. In case of any kind of malfunction, put
the lift out of use by turning the master switch to
OFF.
8) SAFETY SYSTEMS
8.1) Devices to prevent impacts and shearing along
the travel rails.
When in motion, the platform and the body of the lift
are protected by sensor guards which stop the lift if it
touches an obstacle of any kind - Fig. 5.
However, they do allow the lift to be moved in the oppo-
site direction to that in which the obstacle was encoun-
tered, to allow removal of the obstruction.
8.2) Safety devices for the user.
a) Safety gear
- Fig. 6/a.
The stairlift is equipped with a gradual action mechani-
cal safety gear.
It is tripped if the drive components fail, or if the normal
downward travel speed is exceeded by a pre-set
amount. When tripped, this device stops the lift.
CAUTION: in this case the lift remains locked
out of use and an authorised VIMEC technician must
be called in to put it back into service.
b) Bars and guard boards
During use the platform (Fig. 11/d) is protected by two
bars (Fig. 11/a) about 100 cm above the platform sur-
face. The platform is also protected by two guard boards
(Fig. 11/b) which have the dual function of facilitating
access to the stairlift at the floors (open position) and of
retaining the wheelchair while the lift is moving (safety
position at 50°, approximately 125 cm beyond the plat-
form surface).
Before the stairlift leaves the floor, the bars and guards
automatically move to the safety position.
The guard facing in the downward direction only opens
at the lower floor.
If the bars or guards encounter an obstacle as they move
into position, an overload cut-out is tripped, preventing
operation of the lift. To restore normal operation, press
the overload cut-out reset buttons on the lift control panel
(Fig. 13).
c) Handles
In the top of the lift body, they can be used as rests
while the lift is in motion - Fig. 11/c.
