Front chassis
Fitting the front chassis
to the power pack
Items required:
• Front chassis
Two cover plates and various front chassis bolts
and fixings should be packed with the front chassis
assembly including the safety bolt and four seat
back bolts (Figure 30).
Before fitting the front chassis feed the loom
through the tear shaped cover plate and then
attach it to the power pack (Figure 31)
1 Depending upon the hand of the stairlift
being fitted, remove the appropriate pair of
knock-outs (Figure 32 – left hand shown).
2 Gently pull down the footplate to get access
to the panel.
3 Fit the fixing block, bolts and spacers to the
front chassis.
4 Offer the seat chassis to the power unit, and
using the bolts and spacers secure the seat
chassis to the power unit, ensuring that the
chassis is in the correct vertical alignment
(Figure 33).
Note: The power unit has an arched slot on
the seat chassis interface, to set the angle of
the seat and footplate.
Note: Use a spirit level positioned on the top
of the front chassis, or on the footplate, to
ensure that correct alignment is achieved.
5 Fit the safety bolt (Figure 34). This needs to be
left loose enough to allow the rear cover to
pass behind it.
Note: On left hand installations on staircases
steeper than 38° the alternative safety bolt
position must be used (Figure 35).
