Operation - Pride Backpacker AVP 2.0 Owner's Manual

WARNING! Maintain a safe distance from
the lift platform. Ensure your feet are not
positioned under the lift platform and keep
your hands clear of the lift system during

operation.

2. Set the speed control to the slowest setting and
carefully drive the mobility device onto the lift
platform, being sure to center the mobility device
between the previously installed wheel chocks.
NOTE: You may wish to load the mobility device
while standing next to it using the manual freewheel
feature. Refer to the mobility device owner's manual
for more information on manual freewheel mode.
3. Shut down the power to the mobility device, remove
the key if applicable, and make sure the unit is in
drive mode (drive motors engaged). Refer to the
mobility device owner's manual for more information
on drive mode.
WARNING! Never leave a mobility device in
freewheel mode during lift system transport,
as the mobility device could roll or shift on its
own.
4. Secure the mobility device to the platform by draping
the Y-strap over the seat and buckling the strap
securely. See figure 10.
WARNING! Ensure the area behind the lift is
clear of obstructions.
WARNING! Never attempt to secure the Y-strap
over the seat back or armrests of the mobility
device.
MANDATORY! Always secure the mobility
device to the lift with the Y-strap before lift
system operation or vehicle transport.
5. Pull the end of the strap tightly to remove any excess
slack over the seat.
NOTE: Inspect the Y-strap before each use to
ensure there are no signs of fraying or wear.
Ensure that the mobility device is secured properly
before transport. Pride is not liable for damage or
loss resulting from improper securing of a mobility
device.
6. Press and hold the "UP" button. See figure 9. The
lift will move up to its highest lift point, then slide into
the SUV or van. Once the mobility device is stowed
completely within the vehicle, release the button.
