Instructions

The following instruction is for lifting an electric wheelchair, as an example. But this lift works equally well for lifting a variety of mobility aids such as foldable scooters and power chairs, as well as for luggage, groceries, etc.

Procedure for lifting a wheelchair into a trunk

	STEP 1 Step on the brakes on four casters, to ensure that the wheels cannot turn.
	STEP 2 Unbuckle the safety belt, letting the straps dangle off the edges so they won’t be caught beneath the chair. Place the wheelchair on the lift as shown.
	STEP 3 Place the wheelchair on the lift as shown.
	STEP 4 Maneuver the chair as necessary to get it at the center of the tabletop, with its wheels aligned with the edge of the tabletop. Then buckle the safety belt around it.
	STEP 5 Remove the remote control from the side bag, and keep pressing the Up button until the tabletop is raised to reach the bottom level of the trunk.
	STEP 6 If you need to reposition the lift at this point for better access to the trunk, step on the four caster wheels to release the brakes so that you can move the lift to a more advantageous position nearer the trunk.
	STEP 7 If you released the brakes in Step 6, reapply them now by stepping down on the caster wheels. As shown in the picture, readjust the lift height to level where the wheelchair will be able to slide over into the trunk.
	STEP 8 At this point, place the remote control into the side bag to prevent it from being damaged as the wheelchair is shifted from lift to trunk
	STEP 9 Unbuckle the safety belt and, grasping the chair with both hands, gently push it into the trunk, making sure it settles in securely.
	STEP 10 Retrieve the remote control from the side bag. Keep  pressing the Down button until the lift is fully lowered and folded down.
	STEP 11 Place the remote control back in the side bag, and buckle the safety belt.
	STEP 12 Place the lift into the trunk alongside the wheelchair if there’s room, or into the back seat or wherever you wish to secure it for transport.

Procedure for removing the wheelchair from the trunk

	STEP 1 Push the lift near the vehicle trunk, and remove the remote control from the side bag.
	STEP 2 Keep pressing the Up button until the tabletop is about 2 in higher than the bottom surface of the trunk.
	STEP 3 Step on the brakes on all four casters, to ensure that the wheels cannot turn.
	STEP 4 As shown, grasp both sides of the wheelchair and ease it from the trunk onto the lift.
	STEP 5 As shown, slide the wheelchair along the tabletop until it’s centered and its wheels are aligned with the edge of the tabletop. Then buckle the safety belt.
	STEP 6 Release the brakes on all the lift casters.
	STEP 7 Move the lift away from the vehicle, being careful that it does not collide with the vehicle during the lowering process. To lower, keep pressing the Down button on the remote control, until the lift is fully lowered and fully folded down.
	STEP 8 Unbuckle the safety belt.
	STEP 9 In order to get the wheels of the chair on the ground, first grasp the top of the wheelchair firmly, raising it slowly and easing the wheel-end (bottom) of the chair over the  edge of the lift to the ground.
	STEP 10 Buckle the safety belt
	STEP 11 Collect and place the remote control and charger into the side bag, and buckle the safety belt. Place the lift the trunk or at some other desired location.
