LIFTING CAPABILITIES
The lift system is designed to lift a maximum weight of 260 lbs. (120 kg) or 440 lbs. (200kg) depending on the model purchased. Check this by referring to labels on the lift arm. Under no circumstances should the lift system be made to exceed this weight limit. Subjecting the lift system to the strain of lifting more than it is designed to may cause it to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility product and/or injury to the lift operator. Refer to the mobility product specifications for information on the overall weight of the mobility product before lifting with the lift system.
WARNING! Exceeding the maximum lifting capacity of 260lbs or 440lbs may cause the lift system to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility product and/or injury to the lift operator.
MANDATORY! Adding accessories, oversized batteries, or a different seat will increase the weight of your mobility device. Verify with your authorized Pride Provider that the total weight of your mobility device, including additions, DOES NOT exceed 260 lbs or 440 lbs. (120/200 kg).
INSTALLATION
The Olympian Autolift is intended for installation in the rear luggage compartment of a vehicle. Read and fully understand the installation instructions provided with the hoist and the related fitting kit instructions before installing the lift system.
WARNING! The Olympian Autolift is only intended to be installed by an authorized Pride installer or qualified technician. Separate installation instructions are provided with the hoist and the installation kit. Read and fully understand both manuals prior to installation.
LIFTING NON-PRIDE PRODUCTS
The lift system is an extremely versatile device, which users may employ to lift items other than Pride products. Pride has no control over such use, nor can Pride anticipate every possible use to which a lift system may be put. Operating the lift system outside of the safe limits as discussed in this manual or using the lift system to lift any item deemed by Pride to be incompatible with the lift system is done at the operator’s own risk, and Pride accepts no liability for damage or injury resulting from such use.
PRE-LIFT INSPECTION
There should be no sharp edges on the Olympian Autolift, the fitting kit or the scooter brackets. If you find any sharp edges, please contact your supplier before use. Make sure that you are completely happy with the operation of your Olympian Autolift before operating it yourself. Misuse of the product could result in injury. Inspect the lifting straps before every use for twisting, fraying or signs of wear. If signs of wear become evident, have them replaced by your authorized Pride Provider.
WARNING! A frayed or worn strap can snap, resulting in injury to the person being lifted and/or the operator.
OPERATOR POSITIONING
Keep hands clear of the lift arm while the lift system is lifting/lowering or loading in/out a mobility product. The operator of the lift should stand a safe distance from the unit being lifted/lowered to ensure that his/her feet are never positioned under a raised mobility product.
