Contact the Electrician
As mentioned previously, there are installation tasks that require a licensed Electrician.
⚠ DANGER a licensed Electrician must perform all wiring.
The Electrician needs to:
• Connect to power. The Power Unit comes with a pigtail for wiring to a power source. Have your
Electrician connect a power cord with plug to the electrical box on the Lift (for connection to a
power outlet) or have them wire it directly into the electrical system at the Lift location.
• Connect the Microswitch to the Power Unit. The Microswitch (which is next to the Safety
Shutoff Bar) has to be wired to the Power Unit. The necessary wiring is included.
• Install a Power Disconnect Switch. Ensures you can quickly and completely interrupt
electrical power to the Lift in the event of an electrical circuit fault, emergency situation, or when
equipment is undergoing service or maintenance. You must put it within sight and easy reach of
the Lift operator. Refer to Installing a Power Disconnect Switch for more information.
• Install a Thermal Disconnect Switch. Ensures the equipment shuts down in the event of an
overload or an overheated motor. Refer to Installing a Thermal Disconnect Switch for
more information.
These installation tasks are described in detail in the following sections.
The Electrician is responsible for providing:
• A power cord and appropriate 220 VAC plug for connecting to an appropriate power source or the
items required to connect to the facility’s power system
• a Power Disconnect Switch
• a Thermal Disconnect Switch
Additional information is supplied in the sections describing these tasks.
