• Do not install on a wall with a steel structure.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Read “Requirements” and “Important Safeguards” before attempting to assemble the Easytrack System.
1. Survey the room where you plan to install the Easytrack Wall Mount. Make sure the room meets all the specifications outlined in “Requirements”.
2. Use the measurements below to determine the best place to put the Easytrack System: a. Over a bed – approx. 36-40” (915-1020 mm) from the head of the bed (
Figure 1).
b. Over a tub – approx. 16-18” (400-460 mm) from the end of the tub (
Figure 1).
c. Allow 36” (915 mm) of open area for transfer working space (
Figure 2).
d. Allow a minimum of 53” (1340 mm) from the bottom of the rail to the top of any
object to be transferred over (
Figure 3).
3. Transfers should only take place under the Easytrack rail (
Figures 4 & 5).
4. The Wall Mount may be installed on either a concrete wall or wood-framed wall. For wood, the wall mount must be attached to a minimum of three (3) 2" X 3" studs. DO NOT attempt to install the wall mount on less than 3 studs (
Figure 6).
5. Wall Mount must be positioned on the wall to ensure the angle between the wall and the rail will be more than 30° (

ASSEMBLY OF WALL MOUNT ASSEMBLY
Tools required:
• Step ladder
• Tape measure
• 6 concrete 3/8” anchors or 6 3/8” lag bolts
• Drill
• Wrench with a 9/16” socket
• Someone to assist you
• Stud finder
1. Refer to
Figures 9A and 9B for the distance required between the ceiling and where
the top of the wall mount must be installed. Please note that when the wall bracket will have the pivoting rail of a 3 post system attached, the mounting point must be lower than with a standard rail.
2. Insert the pivoting rail attachment into the wall plate. Refer to
Figure 10 to insure
that the bracket is placed properly.
3. Install the wall plate on the wall. The wall plate must be installed on a concrete wall with six (6) 3/8 in. concrete anchors or on three (3) 2x3 (minimum size) wooded studs with two (2) 3/8" diameter (M10), 4 in. long lag bolts on each stud (
Figure 11).
Wood studs– Use a stud finder to find the center of each stud. It is necessary to pre-
drill holes into each stud before screwing the lag bolt to prevent the wood from cracking.
NOTE– Make sure the rail is level before securing wall mount to wall.
Follow drill size recommendation for lag bolt:
LAG BOLT M10 3/8 " PRE-DRILL SIZE 6.5 mm 1/4 "
Pre-drilled holes must be in the center of the stud. If holes are not properly centered, serious damage or injury may occur.
DO NOT install into steel stud, reinforcement may be required.
CAUTION– Avoid drilling close to any electrical wiring or plumbing. Please, make sure you know what
is behind the wall you are drilling in before doing any modifications to it. Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
4. See “Before you start” for suggested position. Slide the pivoting rail attachment into its final position. For the 3 post assembly, the bracket must be placed in a way that the rail won’t, when turning, generate an angle beyond the maximum allowed (
Figure 12).
5. Tighten the four bolts on pivoting rail attachment. The rail can now be attached to wall mount.

MAINTENANCE
Failure to follow maintenance instructions below when indicated could result in injury or damage.
Periodic inspection should be performed by a person who is suitably and properly qualified and well acquainted with the design, use and care of the Easytrack System. Contact your local dealer/distributor.
Inspection should be carried out both routinely (at least as often as specified) and, as nec­essary. If any damage to the system is detected through routine inspections, do not use the system and immediately contact your supplier.
Upon receipt of your Easytrack Wall Bracket:
1. Make sure you received all components listed in Figure 8.
2. Inspect all parts for possible damage in transit.
3. Ensure all components are in working order.
4. Repair/replacement of any faulty parts.
5. Keep a log of any repair/replacement required.
Before each time you use the Easytrack Wall Bracket:
1. Clean the outside and inside of the rail and wipe out any water in the rail. Failure to do so for a long period of time can cause corrosion that will weaken the rail.
2. Check that the rail is secure in place. Press the rail upwards to make sure that the rail is locked onto the post.
3. Check if there is any appearance of damage. If there is any appearance of damage, do not use the Easytrack System.
Every month:
1. Clean inside of rail with a damp cloth to ensure there is no dust or grease build-up inside of rail.
2. Check to ensure you still have all your original parts. If any parts are missing they should be replaced before using the Easytrack Wall Bracket again.
3. Check for the appearance of rust. If rust is starting to appear, simply scrub the piece clean.
4. Examine all joints and pieces for wear and fatigue. Replace any part that looks dam­aged or worn. Document inspection and any repairs.
Follow guidelines in your portable lift manual for maintenance and procedures on the lift.
