Lift Operation Safety

Position and secure (buckle, engage, fasten, etc.) the wheelchair-equipped occupant seat
belt (torso restraint) before loading onto the wheelchair lift platform.

Lift attendants must ensure that lift occupants keep hands, arms and all other body parts
within the lift occupant area and clear of moving parts.

Platform must be positioned at floor level (bridge plate height) when loading or unloading
in and out of vehicle.

Do not use platform roll stops as a barrier (brake). Stop and brake wheelchair when
loading onto the platform (manually stop and brake manual wheelchairs — stop powered
wheelchairs with the wheelchair controls).

Turn powered (electric) wheelchairs off when on lift platform.

Press the DOWN switch until the entire platform rests on ground level (lowered fully) and
the outboard roll stop is fully unfolded (ramp position) before loading or unloading a
passenger at ground level.

Outboard platform roll stop must be fully unfolded (ramp position) until front and rear
wheelchair wheels cross roll stop when loading or unloading at ground level.

Accidental activation of control switch(es) may cause unintended operation(s).
