SAFETY
YOUR LIFT CHAI R
SCISSOR MECHANISMS (PINCH POINT):
Extend or retract to take the chair through
the various stages of recline. See pinch
point warning for more information.
EXTERNAL TRANSFORMER, POWER
CORD: Connects to a standard electrical
outlet to provide power to the lift chair; may
be equipped with an LED which will show
green to indicate power to the transformer.
Refer to the optional wall mounting diagram.
BATTERIES (NOT INCLUDED):
Provide the power needed to
return the lift chair to an upright
or semi-upright position in the
event of a power failure. Must be
installed in the external transformer
if equipped with battery backup.
LIFT MECHANISM
(PINCH POINT):
Responds to the hand control
commands to position the
chair in the si
t and stand
positions. See pinch point
warning for more information.
LEG LEVELERS (4): Manually
rotate up or down to stabilize
the chair before use.
ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
Your lift chair is equipped with a low-voltage DC electrical system that reduces the standard household
alternating current of 100V AC - 240V AC to direct current (29V DC). The electrical components include
the external transformer, batteries (not included), and hand control. Keep these areas free from moisture at
all times.
WARNING! Keep all electrical components free from moisture at all times to prevent shock
and/or electrical hazard
Batteries: Provide the power needed to return the lift chair to an upright or semi-upright position in the
event of a power failure. For those models equipped with a battery backup system, the batteries (not
included) must be installed into the external transformer.
HAND CONTROL: Contains the controls
needed to operate the various fuctions
of the lift chair
Snap
All models will arrive in the “knock-down” position.
NOTE: Depending on chair width, you may need to slide on one side of the back at a time. If
this
is the case, level the chair back before pressing down to lock into position.
1. Connect hand control and lay control and harness down the seat.
2. Push firmly on the top of the back to lock into position. You must hear a snap from each side
of the chair to ensure the back is locked in properly.
3. Attach the chair back to the hook-and-loop flaps on the bottom of the chair base.
NOTE: Pull up on the chair back to ensure that it is locked in place.
ASSEMBLY
Your lift chair may require some assembly before initial use. It may also require disassembly to
make servicing the chair more convenient. If your lift chair is a Knock-Down (KD) model, follow
the instructions in “Lift Chair Setup.”
LIFT CHAIR SETUP
NOTICE - INSTALL FLOOR G LIDES BEFORE USE
-Your lift chair has four adjustable floor glides.They are located in the owner 's package
'
and must be installed per the diagram before use. These glides can be adjusted to level
your lift chair on uneven flooring. Failing to install these floor guides may result in damage
to your lift chair or flooring.
LIFT CHAIR PLACEMENT
Your lift chair should be placed near a standard electrical outlet on dry, level ground where
there is ample room to allow for proper operation. We recommend that you have assistance
when positioning the lift chair to avoid the possibility of injury when lifting.
Follow these steps to position the lift chair in a safe manner:
1. Place the back of the lift chair 30 inches (76 cm) from the nearest obstruction while the
chair is in the seated position. This measureme
nt may vary depending on the model.
2. Adjust the leg levelers to stabilize the lift chair.
3. Install the batteries into the external transformer.
4. Position the external transformer on the floor in an open, well-ventilated area where it will
not be an obstruction.
5. Position the low-voltage connection cable where it will not be pinched between the frame
and the lift mechanism.
6. Connect the low-voltage connection cable to the external transformer if it is not already
connected.
7. Plug the power cord directly into the electrical outlet. Do not use an extension cord!

(Not Included)
NOTE: Always make sure the ex ternal trans-
former is equipped with two fresh 9 V batteries
since the battery backup system does not
recharge itself. Fresh batteries are defined as
9 V alkaline batteries that are replaced every
time the battery backup system is activated
during a power failure, or once a year if the bat-
tery backup system has not been activated.
NOTE: If you unplug your lift chair for an ex tended
period of time (more than one hour), remove the
batteries from the ex ternal transformer. The lift
chair will draw power from the batteries even when
it is not in use.
1. Remove the sliding door on the side of transformer to locate where the 2-9 volt batteries install.
2. Install 2-9 volt batteries.
3. Replace door on the transformer.
2-9 V olt back-up batteries will operate the chair from the reclined position to the seating position.
The batteries will operate one cycle in case of a power failure.
If a power faillure occurs and the chair is cycled, the 2-9 volt batteries will need to be replaced
once a year or after they are used once.

Batteries not included.
