SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:
The Power Gear Slim Rack Bunk Lift System is a rack and pinion design operated
by a pair of 12 Volt DC electric motors. The system is designed to move a bunk of
no more than 100 pounds vertically. Bunk Lift systems rated for higher weight or
longer strokes can be obtained. Please contact Power Gear for application
assistance.
MAJOR COMPONENTS:
•
Touchpad with indicator LED's that mounts to the wall. The touchpad communicates with
the control to allow bunk movement and provides end user feedback via LED's. (See
Figure 1)
"UP" and DOWN" buttons move the bunk lift in the corresponding direction
o
when button is pressed. Push and hold until bunk reaches pre-
programmed stop point.
"ENGAGE PARK BRAKE" will light red if park brake is not engaged when
o
trying to operate the bunk lift.
"LOW VOLTAGE" LED will light red when the voltage is below the
o
operating threshold of the control.

o
specific fault conditions.(See Figure 5, page 4)
"BUNK LIFT MOVEMENT" LED will flash green when the bunk lift is
o
moving.

A specially designed control that gives the user full control of the bunk movement, up or
down. The control has programmed stops that control the motor when the bunk is fully
raised or lowered, and the ability to detect faults for ease in troubleshooting. (See Figure
2)
