OPERATION |
A. HAND CONTROL
The hand control activates the lifter and has two buttons; one “up” and one “down”.
Simply press the button for the direction you want the lifter to move.
B. BATTERY CHARGING
Plug the charger into the wall socket (110 V) prior to connecting the plug to the control box. If the unit sits idle for an extended period of time, the battery life diminishes. A control box with battery.
should be charged at least every six months. However, the longest life is obtained when the battery is fully charged. After approximately 6 hours of charging, the batteries will be fully charged.
NOTE– It is not possible to overcharge batteries. (Battery is a Gel Cell).
NOTE– Battery alarm will go off when battery is low.
C. USER INSTRUCTIONS
The duty cycle printed on the label of the control box must always be noted. If this is exceeded, the control box could overheat and become damaged. Unless otherwise specified on the label, the duty cycle maximum is 10% or 6 min/hour of continuous operation. To widen or narrow the base, pull adjustment handle back to unlock. Handle can be moved to the right to widen the base or to the left to narrow the base. |
