Lowering The Lift - Invacare 9805 Owner's Manual

SECTION 7—OPERATION

Lowering the Lift

The control handle MUST be in the open position (control valve positioned away from
pump handle) to lower the boom and the patient. The rate of descent can be controlled by
varying the amount that the control valve is opened.
NOTE: A safety gate is part of the hydraulic system that maintains a SLOW constant descent of
the boom regardless of how far the control valve is opened.
