General Operating Instructions:
Turn the key switch to the ON position.  With the toggle switch, raise and lower the platform as 
needed.  Pushing the switch downward will cause the platform to lower.  The platform will first unfold 
to the horizontal position, then continue lowering to the ground.  Release the UP/DOWN toggle 
switch just as the platform reaches the ground. Do not attempt to raise the rear of the vehicle with 
the lift or damage could be done to your lift or vehicle.
Drive the chair/scooter  onto the platform as close to the center of the platform as possible.  Follow 
the instructions for securing the chair/scooter onto the lift.  Raise the platform to the transporting 
position.  Now lower the platform to the ground.  Repeat this action to make sure all parts are 
operating properly and the chair is properly secured.
Next, remove the chair/scooter from the lift and using the toggle switch, cycle the lift completely up to 
make sure that all parts are in working order and that the lift folds up  when it is empty. 
Make absolutely sure the chair/scooter is properly secured by the locking mechanisms.  Be sure 
everything is in proper working order before transporting any chair/scooter. 
CAUTION:  Keep hands and feet out from under the platform as it  raises and lowers.
CAUTION: Before driving off with the chair/scooter on the lift, make sure that the chair/scooter is 
firmly held down on the platform. 
CAUTION: When driving with the chair on the lift, instruct the end user to slow down for pot holes, 
speed bumps, railroad tracks, etc.  The lift could be damaged by this type or similar abuse.  Lifts are 
subjected to exc essive loads imposed by rough driving. 
CAUTION: Be sure to instruct the end user, do not enter steep driveways straight on.  Enter and 
leave at an angle to the street so that the lift platform does not drag on the ground.
