II. F9T INSTALLATION
he RICON Mirage F9T Transit Use Wheelchair and Standee Lift is contained in an enclosure, which can be
mounted in several possible vehicle locations. Specific information for every possible installation is not
provided due to the wide range of applications.
Most illustrations used in this chapter apply to both the Dedicated Entry model and Stepwell model.
Therefore, some views could appear reversed compared to the application being worked on.
The following general procedures apply to most installations.
Contact Ricon Product Support for information on installations not covered.
Installation is carried out in four steps:
1. Mechanical
2. Electrical
3. Final Adjustments
4. Installation Verification
A. MECHANICAL
1. LIFT POSITIONING NOTES
Select a location within vehicle to install lift. The exact mounting position is determined by the motion
path of the lift platform, relative to the ground and the vehicle interior floor. The lift must move without
obstruction through its range of travel.
2. LIFT MOUNTING NOTES
a. Refer to Figure 2-1. The mounted weight of lift is received at eight standard attachment points
(four on each side of enclosure). There is a 5/16-18 threaded insert at each point.
b. Mounting brackets for attachment of lift are not supplied, since lift mounting varies from one
application to another. The mounting method must meet the load requirements in
Table 2-1.
