II. F10X-SERIES OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS his chapter contains safety precautions, a description of lift functions, control and indicator descriptions, plus operating instructions for the RICON F10X-Series Wheelchair and Standee

lift. This chapter must be thoroughly understood by the operator.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: The following safety precautions must be complied with at all times when operating lift:

• Refer to Figure 2-1. Operate lift with vehicle parked on level ground. Deploying lift when vehicle is on sloped ground is hazardous.

• Vehicle must be safely parked with parking brake ON before using lift.

• Inspect lift before use. DO NOT use lift if an unsafe condition exists, or if unusual noise or movement is noticed. Contact a Ricon authorized dealer or qualified service technician for repair.

• Read and comply with all warning labels and sym-bols affixed to wheelchair lift.

• It is never safe for a wheelchair occupant to enter or exit a vehicle backwards. Wheel-chair occupant must FACE OUTWARD when entering or exiting vehicle.

• DO NOT back onto platform when exiting vehicle. FACE OUTWARD, and verify that platform is at the same height as floor. Verify that outer rollstop is up and locked.

• The outer rollstop is intended to prevent slow, unintentional, rolling off of the platform.

• The outer rollstop is not intended to stop a quick moving wheelchair. A quick moving wheelchair could tip if the front wheels hit the closed rollstop first. Also, the large rear wheels of a quick moving wheelchair could climb over the closed rollstop. Possible injury to the occupant might occur in either case.

• Verify that wheelchair fits safely on platform; it must not extend beyond edges or inter-fere with operation of rollstop.

• Do not operate with a load in excess of 660 lbs. (300 kg).

• Keep arms, legs, and clothing away from moving lift parts.

• This lift is to be used by one wheelchair occupant or one standee, only. Do not over-load.

• Keep others clear while operating lift.

• Do not allow an untrained person to operate lift.

• Do not allow anyone to stand on bridgeplate. A bent bridgeplate can interfere with the platform as it raises and lowers.

• LOCK WHEELCHAIR BRAKES before raising or lowering platform (power chair users should turn off power and set brake).

• Use great care in wet conditions; the wheelchair brakes are less effective if its wheels or the platform are wet.

• Do not leave deployed platform unattended. Return to stowed position after each use.

Read and understand the preceding safety precautions. Review them periodically and ask at-tendants or other operators to read them as well. Contact a Ricon authorized dealer or quali-fied service technician or call Ricon Product Support if there are questions.

PRE-OPERATION LIFT INSPECTION: Refer to the “Driver Checklist” section in Chapter 3. Ricon recommends that the listed inspec-tion points be performed each time the vehicle is put into service, or when a driver change oc-curs during a shift. This inspection can be part of the normal pre-use walk-through done by the vehicle operator.

LIFT FUNCTIONS: Refer to Table 2-1 and Figure 2-2. The table describes the four platform motions controlled by the pendant. The figure illustrates height positions the deployed platform can be placed at. The intermediate height shown applies only to vehicle applications that have the lift installed in a side baggage bay.

TABLE 2-1: LIFT FUNCTIONS FUNCTION DESCRIPTION

DEPLOY Platform extends out of vehicle, or deploys.

DOWN* Platform lowers from present height (floor height or deployed posi-tion); rollstop lowers when platform contacts ground.

UP* Platform rises from present height (ground level or deployed position); rollstop rises before platform leaves ground.

STOW** Platform retracts into vehicle, or stows.

END OF TABLE

* The UP and DOWN functions are enabled only when vehicle interlocks have been acti-vated.

** Stowing the platform requires pressing and holding the STOW button.

• DO NOT EXCEED RATED LOAD CAPACITY OF 660 POUNDS (300 KG).

• INSPECT WHEELCHAIR LIFT FOR PROPER FUNCTION, REQUIRED MAINTENANCE, AND DAMAGE PRIOR TO USE. DO NOT USE LIFT IF A PROBLEM EXISTS, AND CONTACT A RICON AUTHORIZED DEALER OR QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN FOR REPAIR.

• THIS LIFT IS TO BE USED BY ONE WHEELCHAIR OCCUPANT OR ONE STANDEE, ONLY. RICON CORPORATION DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM MODIFICATION TO THE LIFT, LACK OF MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR, NEGLIGENCE, ABUSE, OR FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.

WARNING! ATTENDANT MUST REMAIN NEAR LIFT PASSENGER TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE, IF NECESSARY. KEEP OTHERS CLEAR WHEN OPERATING LIFT. MAINTAIN PRESSURE ON CONTROL BUTTON UNTIL FUNCTION COMPLETES. VERIFY THAT WHEELCHAIR FITS PROPERLY ON PLATFORM; IT MUST NOT PREVENT ROLLSTOP FROM CLOSING AND LOCKING AS PLATFORM RISES.

WARNING! THE LIFT CAN ONLY BE OPERATED WHEN ENABLED BY THE VEHICLE INTERLOCK CIRCUITRY. DO NOT BYPASS THE INTERLOCK TO OPERATE LIFT. REFER TO VEHICLE SERVICE MANUAL FOR IN-TERLOCK INFORMATION BEFORE OPERATING LIFT.

A. NORMAL LIFT OPERATION NOTE: Separate operating instructions are provided for each application covered by this ma-

nual. One set of instructions applies to motor coaches that have the lift installed in a side baggage bay with a passenger compartment door located directly above. The other set applies to coaches with a swing-out door in front of the lift compartment.

1. CONTROLS AND INDICATORS a. Control Pendant

Refer to Figure 2-3 on the following page. The F10X model is operated with push-button switches and an ON-OFF switch located on the hand-held, hard wired re-mote-control pendant. Turn on the POWER switch and then press an appropriate push-button switch to control each lift motion. The POWER switch enables the pendant by providing power to it and must be turned on before the lift can be operated. When turned on, the power switch will illuminate. Pushing the DEPLOY switch deploys platform from vehicle. Pushing the DOWN switch lowers platform towards ground, and pushing the UP switch raises platform

32DF1001.A 2 - 4

towards floor. Pushing the STOW switch stows platform into vehicle. The pendant is stored in an interior location designated by the vehicle manufacturer.

NOTE: Press switch until function completes.

NOTE: Electrical power to the lift is removed when the lift is not in service. As a re-sult, the power indicator light on the pendant should illuminate only when lift power is present. Contact a Ricon au-thorized dealer or qualified service tech-nician if the indicator is illuminated when the lift is not in operation, or if it is not illuminated during service (failure to illuminate during service may also be due to interlock conditions having not been met).

b. Electrical Circuit Breaker

Refer to Figure 2-4. The Control Sys-tem circuit breaker interrupts electric power to components located inside the enclosure or control pendant. This will occur if a malfunction causes an ab-normally high current flow. The 30A circuit breaker is mounted on a bracket located next to the 8A circuit breaker. The circuit breaker button will “pop-out” when a short circuit occurs. Press the button to reset.

NOTE: DO NOT press the button and hold it if pressing and releasing does not re- store power. Contact a Ricon authorized dealer or qualified service technician for repair.

2. LIFT OPERATION FOR SIDE BAGGAGE BAY APPLICATIONS This section applies to vehicles with a passenger compartment door directly above the lift location (lift installed in a side baggage compartment). The door can be a type that is opened and closed either manually or with power assist. The door position (open or closed) is normally transmitted to the lift controller, though there are some applications that do not.

Most, but not all, lift applications are programmed to stop the platform at an intermediate height (refer back to Figure 2-2). Applications with an intermediate position allow the passenger compartment door to be kept closed until the platform reaches that position. Once at that position, the door must be fully opened before the platform can be moved to floor level. Optionally, the door can be opened before the platform is raised to interme-diate height.

PREPARATION:

Verify vehicle is safely parked on a level surface, with the emergency brake ON, be-fore operating lift. Provide space for lift operation and passenger boarding.

Verify that the area is clear of obstacles.

B. MANUAL LIFT OPERATION The lift can be operated manually if normal electrical power is not available. The follow-ing sections describe lift controls associated with manual operation, important safety preparations to be followed before using the lift, and operating procedures to deploy, raise, lower, and stow the lift. Use the Deploy, Raise, and Lower procedures in combi-nation to move the platform repeatedly between floor and ground levels.

CAUTION!

Manual operation components are for emergency use, only. Manual operation should be uti-lized for unloading passengers, and should not be used for loading passengers into the ve-hicle.

1. MANUAL LIFT CONTROLS The manual operation components consist of a platform release handle, a stow lock, a backup pump for the hydraulic system, and a rollstop control knob.

a. Release Handle Refer to Figure 2-5. The stowed platform is difficult to withdraw against the resis-tance of the deployment system. For that reason, a release handle is provided to disengage the platform when manual deployment is necessary.

RELEASE HANDLE
