Emergency Manual Operation

The emergency manual lowering tool (handwheel) allows you to operate the
lift manually.
The batteries must be connected to release the motor brake and then
you can use the manual hand crank.
1 Turn off power at the stairlift and unplug the power cord from the wall.
2 Remove the rubber cover from the hole on the top front of the carriage.
3 Fit the shaft of the manual lowering handwheel onto the motor input shaft.
4 Rotate the tool clockwise for the unit to travel up the stairs and
counter-clockwise for the unit to travel down the stairs.
5 When complete, remove the tool and insert the rubber plug back into the
hole.
