Installing the Portable Lift

Follow the guidelines stated below on the correct method for installing the portable lift onto the trolley.

1. Complete all the relevant steps in section 5.
2. Place the portable lift on a secure and soft surface such as a bed or chair.
3. Using the handset or membrane, extend the lift tape to allow enough slack to attach the QRS hook to the trolley while the portable lift remains in position. (See figure 6.1)
4. Locate the QRS hook into the Reacher pole and tension the lift tape to open the QRS latch. (Figure 6.2)
5. Using the Reacher pole, raise the hook and secure onto the trolley. (See figure 6.3)
6. Remove the Reacher pole and store in a safe place.
7. Using the handset or membrane, raise the portable lift off the chair to a suitable suspended height.

When installing the portable lift in the opposite orientation, the Reacher pole is not suitable and cannot be used. Therefore, the lift must be manually attached by raising the product up to the ceiling and attaching the QRS hook onto the trolley, securing in the same manner as above. To do this, the installer will require a ladder for accessibility.
