9. OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT – PLATFORM SAFETY PAN WEATHER GUARD
9.1. The platform safety pan weather guard (FIG. 9.1) helps to keep the area between the underside of the
platform and the safety pan free of debris. Made of durable rubber, this option installs quickly by simply
clipping onto the safety pan.
FIG. 9.1
10. OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT – INTERLOCK
10.1. The interlock, a device intended to prevent an existing door from being opened when the lift is in the down
position, is handed, either left or right, depending on the model ordered. When looking at the door from the
VPL platform, refer to FIG. 10.1 to determine interlock handing.
With interlock use, the door must swing away from VPL, regardless of hinge location.
VPLs altered to operate with an interlock will not operate correctly if connected to a top landing
gate. The wiring must be returned to its original wiring scheme (pre-interlock alteration) to work
with the top landing gate.
