Why is my Lumex LF1030 patient lift not going up or down?

  If the patient lift isn't moving up or down, it could be due to air in the cylinder. To resolve this, bleed the cylinder by turning the release knob and pushing down on the mast, then pump up the lift again and turn the release knob again. Another possibility is a loss of hydraulic fluid due to a leaking cylinder, in which case you should replace the leaking cylinder.

  If the actuator isn't running but the relay is clicking, first ensure the actuator plug is firmly pushed into the control box. If that doesn't work, the actuator itself might be defective and need replacement. Alternatively, the control box could be defective, requiring replacement.
