Models

Method Of Operation
METHOD OF ACTION:
The operator opens the vehicle's doors and activates the toggle switch to the unfold position. The platform automatically unfolds and stops. When the operator releases and reactivates the same switch - this enables the unfold function until the platform is horizontal. The bridgeplate will deploy when the platform reaches the horizontal position. The operator once again releases and reactivates the toggle switch enabling the down function. The lift will automatically stop at ground level and deploy the outboard roll stop.
After boarding, the operator activates the toggle switch in the stow direction. The outboard roll stop raises up and the platform slightly levels. The platform then rises - elevating the wheelchair passenger from the ground up to the floor of the van. The lift stops automatically at floor level and deploys the bridgeplate. After the user / passenger has exited the platform, the switch can be activated to fold and stow the platform again.
