Ricon UNI-lite Operator's Manual

Personal use wheelchair lift

I.
INTRODUCTION
T
he RICON UNI-lite Personal Use Wheelchair Lift provides wheelchair access to personal vans.
With its lightweight aluminum alloy construction it has little effect on vehicle handling. The
lift is designed to be operated by a person in a wheelchair, or by an attendant. The unique, ad-
justable post design means that UNI-lite fits standard and raised doors of most full-size vans and
some minivans. The large non-skid platform accommodates most wheelchairs, yet the lift in-
trudes very little on interior space. UNI-lite lifts up to 600 pounds (273 kilograms).
Standard features of the UNI-lite are twin handrails, a powerful electric motor and direct gear
drive, and a powered roll stop. The UNI-lite also contains a built-in manual backup system.
This manual contains operation and maintenance instructions for
the UNI-lite. It is important that operators be completely familiar
with the Operating Instructions chapter of this manual. For
installation instructions and spare parts , please refer to the ser-
vice manual. Once the UNI-lite is installed, it is important that
the lift be properly maintained by following the recommended
cleaning, lubrication, and inspection procedures.
