Footrest And Carriage Sensors; Safety Switches; Emergency Stop Button (Optional); Overspeed Brake - Savaria K2 Owner's Manual

Footrest and Carriage Sensors

There are safety edge sensors on the sides of the footrest and the carriage, and
an underpan sensor on the bottom of the footrest. These sensors will stop the
stairlift if an obstruction is encountered on the stairway.
If you encounter an obstruction, press the opposite side of the toggle switch to
run the stairlift in the opposite direction. Remove the obstacle from the
pathway and proceed in the original direction of travel.

Safety Switches

There are upper and lower safety limit switches to stop the stairlift when it
reaches the top or bottom of the stairway. There are also mechanical stops at
the top and bottom of the rail to stop the lift from running off the rail.
There is also a safety switch for the swivel seat that will prevent the stairlift from
running if the seat is not locked in the riding position.

Emergency Stop Button (Optional)

There may be an optional emergency stop button located on the left arm.
Pressing this button will stop the unit immediately.

Overspeed Brake

The overspeed brake that will engage and stop the lift if the normal downward
travel speed is exceeded.

Key Switch and Power Switch

The stairlift is equipped with a key switch and cannot be operated unless the
key is inserted and turned a quarter turn clockwise to the on position. Once the
key switch is turned on, flip the ON/OFF power switch (located on the top of the
carriage) to the ON position.
Do NOT turn off the power switch after each trip. Turning off the
power switch stops the batteries from charging and this action
will eventually drain the batteries.
