16 6. Final checks Perform the final checks and adjustments to ensure a secure lift operation. Check the good electrical contact between the battery terminals and supply conductors clamps Check the correct position of all elements of the lift (chair, arms, leg support, covers) Check the travel command for the lift descent Check the travel command for the lift ascent Check the operation of the end of travel sensor situated beneath the cover of the upper guide rolls when ascending by pressing it and performing the ascent and then descent travel commands several times. At the first command, the lift should NOT start, and at the second IT SHOULD Check the operation of the end of travel sensor situated beneath the cover of the upper guide rolls when descending by pressing it and performing the descent and then ascent travel commands several times. At the first command, the lift should NOT start, and at the second IT SHOULD Check the operation of the fault limiting device when ascending by pressing its cam, which should interrupt any lift command activation Check similarly the fault limiting device when descending Check the operation of the obstacle sensors on the main cover when ascending by pressing the cover (simulating an obstacle) and performing the ascent and then descent travel commands. At the first command, the lift should NOT start, and at the second IT SHOULD Check the operation of the obstacle sensors on the main cover when descending by pressing the cover (simulating an obstacle) and performing the descent and then ascent travel commands. At the first command, the lift should NOT start, and at the second IT SHOULD. Similarly, check the operation of the obstacle sensors for the leg support and of the protection covers on the railing rollers. Check the «seat s correct position» protection by rotating the seat to left and right several times and performing the ascent and then descent travel commands. THE LIFT SHOULD NOT START FOR ANY OF THE COMMANDS. Check the sensors for limiting the rotation of the seat. Perform the rotation command and check if the seat stops at an angle 90 according to the client s requirement. 16 / 18

17 Perform the rotation command in reverse order and check if the seat stops in the correct position for travelling. Move the lift at the bottom of the rail and check if the travel speed reduces at a distance between mm before activating the end of travel sensor. Proceed similarly for the top of the rail. Checking the battery charging devices: - Move the lift in the parking area and, when the end of travel sensor has stopped the lift, check if the collector reed of the supply device located on the lift is positioned at half length of the supply positioned on the rail, and that the electrical contact between them is done correctly If some of the results of the checks were not adequate, remedy deficiencies, and then recheck to make sure everything is working correctly. After these checks, perform a lift movement under load throughout the length of the rail observing the rigidity of the assembly and the clearance space between the lift and stairs, which should not be less than 20 mm. Similarly, check the clearance between the lift or any other possible obstacle (wall, rail, etc.), which should not be less than 10 mm. Check the operation of the remote control by sending the lift in the parking area and recalling it from the parking area THE RACK TEETH MUST BE LUBRICATED ALONG THEIR LENGTH WITH THICK VASELINE TYPE LGHP 2 LUBRICANT. After performing these operations, the lift is considered installed; fill in the installation check list shown in Annex M 1, which will be kept by the dealer for the entire life of the chair lift. Perform a practical demonstration of the operation of the lift in front of the client, making sure that they understand all the maneuvers necessary for the movement of the lift and all the stair lift features. Fill in the acceptance protocol of the lift in two copies according to Annex CT 1 from the TECHNICAL BOOK, a copy remaining in the technical book, and the other being retained by the company which carried out the installation for its records.
