General Inspection and Preventive Maintenance

Do not perform any inspection or maintenance while the lift is in use with a
patient.
Each Use
(To be completed by User)
Prior to each use the AP-450 lift and associated track, accessories, and slings must be visually
inspected. Refer to the accessory and sling user guides for specific details regarding their
inspection.
Should any of these items fail the inspection do not use the lift. Contact your
local authorized dealer for service.
Visually check for the following:
The lift strap shows NO signs of fraying or breaking along its entire length.
✓
The stitching on the lift strap where it connects to the carabiner shows no signs of fraying
✓
or breaking.
The batteries are low and require charging. Refer to "Charge the Lift"
on page 5. Charge the lift for at least one hour and then try to raise
or lower the carry bar.
If this does not correct the problem, contact your local authorized
dealer immediately to check the lift and ensure proper continued
operation.
Discontinue using immediately and replace strap. Check to be sure
that the lift is always directly above the individual being lifted,
especially with power traversing lifts. Refer to "Transfer an
Individual" on page 11 for correct lift positioning. If fraying still
continues, contact your local authorized dealer immediately to
check the lift and ensure proper continued operation.
Refer to the Owner's Manual for the specific piece of equipment in
question. If the recommended solution does not correct the
problem, contact your local authorized dealer immediately to check
the lift and ensure proper continued operation.
Ensure the Emergency Stop Switch is set to ON.
The AP-450 lift is equipped with dual sensors for strap tension and
position, the Emergency Down Button/Switch system only works
with load on the strap. Emergency Down Button/Switch motion
stops immediately after the lift strap is loose.
Complete the "Semi-Annually" maintenance procedure on page 18
prior to resetting the lift counter. Instructions to reset the lift counter
are detailed in the AP-450 Service/Spare Parts Manual.
