OPERATION
HOW THE HARMAR
HIGHLANDER 400-X WORKS
The Harmar Highlander 400-X Vertical Platform Lift
is AC powered via 115V AC, 15A, single phase, 60Hz.
The lift is interlocked and will not operate unless all
auxiliary gates and appropriate safeties are engaged.
The lift will raise or lower once a control input is
activated - whether from a call station or from
the platform. A control switch must be continually
pressed for the platform to move.
The lifting/lowering of the platform is achieved with
a hp electric motor and gear box driving an ACME
screw. That screw system connects to the platform
carriage which in turn supports the platform. The
platform automatically stops at the desired landing.
The lift has several advanced safety systems based
on the status of various sensors and switches
located in the tower and at landings. Once a lift is at
a landing, the gates/doors will be unlocked and are
able to be opened.
LIFT OPERATION
CALL/SEND
If the platform is not at your desired landing, you
will need to “call” or “send” for it. A Call/Send
Control is located at the landing or in the gate
frame. The Call/Send Control may have a keylock.
Please ensure the key is rotated to the “On”
position. Then, to call or send the platform, simply
press the Up or Down button, continuously, until the
platform comes to a full stop at the desired landing.
NOTE: If there is a platform gate or landing gate, it will
not open unless the platform is aligned with the interlock.
ENTERING THE PLATFORM
WITH PLATFORM GATE
Enter the platform either by opening the gate/door
towards you or moving through the opening. Move
to the center of the platform while closing the gate/
door behind you. If your mobility device has a brake,
make sure to engage it. See Figure 3-1.
