More Details

*This electrically operated, vehicle mounted hoist is made of steel with a slip resistant aluminium platform tread plate. The platform has side edge barriers and a front edge roll stop. The electrically activated roll stop automatically locks into the "up" position before the lift will raise or lower. When the lift stops moving, the roll stop folds down to form a ramp for getting on and off the platform.
*When not in use, the platform is stored underneath the vehicle in a high strength aluminium cartridge, which fully encloses the lift, protecting it from the weather and corrosive elements. The compact cartridge is only 120mm thick.
*A hand held four button pendant control operates the lift, raising the wheelchair occupant from ground level to floor level of the vehicle and back again. The platform moves in and out of the storage cartridge electrically also. The lift requires at least 12 volts to power it. It features an in built manual back up system.

Installation

An approved wheelchair and occupant restraint system must be installed if a passenger is transported in a wheelchair.
