I. F9T INTRODUCTION
afe and easy access to mass-transit vehicles is provided by the RICON Mirage F9T Transit Use Wheelchair
and Standee Lift. Refer to
Figures 1-1 and 1-2. This manual covers both Dedicated Entry (DE) and Stepwell
(SW) models. The Dedicated Entry model is intended for installation in a vehicle baggage bay, or similar com-
partment. The Stepwell model is installed within a vehicle stepwell.
An electric-motor driven hydraulic pump assures smooth platform movement, with a maximum capacity of 660 pounds
(300 kilograms). The vehicle operator, or a trained attendant, operates it. The operator uses control switches to with-
draw the platform from the vehicle (deploy) and lower it to ground level. The passenger boards the large non-skid
platform and is then raised to floor height. The passenger enters the vehicle, and then the operator lowers the plat-
form and retracts it back into the vehicle (stow). When the passenger exits, the operator uses control switches to
withdraw the platform from the vehicle (deploy) and raise it to floor height. The passenger boards the platform and is
then lowered to the ground by the operator. The passenger departs, and the operator returns the platform to the stow
position.
One individual can manually operate the lift when normal power is not present. A manual release mechanism is
provided to ease the task of pulling the platform out of its enclosure by hand. The hydraulic pump assembly includes
a manually operated back-up pump to raise the platform, and a release valve to lower it. The front platform rollstop,
normally power operated, has a manual override knob for back-up use.
