Lubricating the Lift
The Invacare lift is designed for minimum maintenance.
However, a six month check and lubrication should ensure
continued safety and reliability.
Keep lift and slings clean and in good working order. Any
defect should be noted and reported to your dealer as soon
as possible.
The casters MUST swivel and roll smoothly. A light grease
(waterproof auto lubricant) may be applied to the ball
bearing swivel of the casters once a year. Apply more
frequently if the casters are exposed to extreme moist
conditions.
Adjusting the Base
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 7.1.
1.
Check the squareness of the legs when in the CLOSED
position.

are engaged in corresponding height adjust-
ment holes before use.
1.

of the leg is in contact with the pad.

Using both hands, pull both adjustment pins outward
at the same time.
3.
Position the knee pad to the desired height and release
adjustment pins into the corresponding alignment
holes.
