General
Rail coating
The rail and chair base are finished with a durable powder coating. The powder coating applied to the rail is available
in a variety of colours. On ordering the stairlift the customer selects the colour most suitable for the interior of the
customer's home. Customers can select from the following standard colours:
RAL 9002, grey/white.
RAL 8019, grey/brown.
RAL 7046, silk grey.
RAL 8024, brown/beige.
Although other colours are also possible, the choice of non-standard colour will have consequences for the price and
delivery time.
Stairlift coating
The powder coat applied to the chair is always white and the covers are always a combination of white and brown.
These colours cannot be changed.
Chair upholstery
Two standard materials are available for the chair upholstery, each in its own range of colours:
Vinyl: red, natural sisal, blue, grey, green and maroon
Fabric: beige, blue, brown and red.
Both materials are dirt-resistant and fire-retardant.

Safety aspects

The stairlift is equipped with various techniques to guarantee safe use. In general, all safeguards are duplicated; one
fault may never result in a dangerous situation!
The following safety devices are fitted:
An over speed device locks the stairlift mechanically if it goes too fast. In that case, the drive motor is also
disconnected electrically (see chapter 4).
Mechanical end stops at the ends of the rail will trigger the final limit switch to reduce the possibility for the
drive unit to ride off the rail. This should only be possible if there is a technical defect (see chapter 4).
An obstruction safeguard system ensures that the stairlift stops when the chair is unintentionally rotated
because a person or object obstructs (parts of) the chair.
Because the stairlift works on batteries, it can still be used when there is a power failure. A safety
mechanism ensures that batteries always have enough charge left for a last trip to a charging contact
located lower down (see chapter 4).
All chairs are fitted with a safety belt.
