Safety

The Carolift is designed to lift a load of a maximum of 40 kg.
Stop the ejection of the lifting strap when the white line becomes visible, refer to the illustration on the right. Otherwise, the tape is inserted backwards and can become tangled.
Ensure that the lift band does not twist when being fed in.
Anchor the wheelchair during travel.

Operation

Loading and unloading the wheelchair

Press the rocker switch on the top of the jib to run the lifting strap down or up. Ensure that the carabiner, or alternative lifting device, is well anchored in the wheelchair before lifting.
Hold the rocker switch depressed. Guide the wheelchair with your hand to the desired position to minimize the risk of material damage.

Lower and raise the hoist jib

Press down on the latch. Hold the hoist jib when the latch loosens so that it does not fall uncontrollably to the ground.
The hoist jib should always be in the lowered position during travel.
