10. Procedure after an unplanned shutdown
Should the stairlift come to a standstill due to an unforeseen event, please remain
calm. Please do not panic, otherwise you will endanger your safety. The stairlift
is equipped with sufficient safety precautions so that nothing can happen to you.
The platform lift is equipped with an emergency signal button (cf. Figure 1, Pos.6)
that allows a person to call for help. When this button is pressed, a loud emergency signal
sounds.
It is also advisable to carry a cordless or mobile phone to call for help.
Optionally, the stairlift can also be equipped with fixed emergency call systems, which are
listed under accessories.
10.1. Use of emergency crank
Operation with an emergency crank is only necessary in the event of a technical defect or
response of the interception system and should only be used then.
The stairlift can be moved manually using the emergency crank. The emergency crank
insertion opening is fitted with a limit switch which interrupts the automatic movements, i.e. the
stairlift cannot be moved electrically with the emergency crank inserted. When the limit switch
is actuated, a corresponding message appears.
Handling the emergency crank:
1. Press the emergency stop button on the carriage.
2. The opening for the emergency crank is always on the downhill side, on the side of the
carriage.
3. Insert the supplied emergency crank into the opening provided on the carriage
and turn in the corresponding direction.
The lower stopping point should always be approached, as the effort required
downhill is significantly lower.
The respective direction of rotation is indicated on the undercarriage. This
activity requires a lot of time and effort from the user.
