It has a secondary panel, lift belts, direction levers, hanger bar, emergency stop, and hand control with IPX7 rating. The secondary panel has a status indicator light, power on/off button, raise and lower lift buttons, emergency lowering button, and function warning lights. The hand control has up and down buttons, and a USB-C port for charging. The lift must be charged every night using a Human Care charger and should not be immersed in water.
