2. Safety Systems To stop the lift in an emergency, pull on the red cord once gently, you will hear a “click”which indicates the lift has been turned off. To re-activate the lift, pull the red cord again, once gently. An illuminated green light confirms that the lift is on.

In the event of an electrical or functional failure, the V4 has an emergency manual lowering feature 1. Remove the 8-mm Allen key situated in the slot on top of the lift.

2. Open the side door to access the mechanism. Flip up the access door and Insert the Allen key deep into the gear. Turn it counter clockwise in order to lower your patient. The key turns the main lift gear slowly lowering your patient. To lower your patient more rapidly, use a ratchet or a drill with an 8-mm Allen key. Once the patient is lowered and secure on a chair or in a bed, call a qualified technician to inspect your lift

3. Battery & Charging Systems The lifts power is supplied by rechargeable batteries. The battery charging station is mounted to the side of the track allowing the lift to parked and charged at a spot most convenient for the user. When fully charged, the lift will perform approximately 120 cycles at 90kg (200 lbs) between charges. Easy access to the dual 12v batteries, for maintenance purposes, is available by simply snapping off the lift housing.

4. Lift Operating Controls The lifts primary controls are mounted on the hand set: up, down and horizontal movement in addition to Return to Charge and Program mode are accessed from your hand. Auxiliary up and down controls are mounted on the lift. A group of LED’s on the lifts housing indicate the status of the lift at a glance.

5. Return to Charge The return to charge feature, standard equipment on the V4, means a lift out of service because someone forgot to charge the battery is a thing of the past. One press of a button and the lift raises its spreader bar, travels to the charging station, parks and lowers the bar to your preprogrammed height. A great zero lift compliance feature. Built-in safety circuits prevent the return to charge mechanism from operating if weight is detected on the spreader bar.
