Foreword

Dear Reader,

these Operating Instructions serve to provide all information

required for the safe use of the EasyPull.

The EasyPull is designed and constructed in accordance

with state of the art technology and recognised safety

standards. Persons and materials can however be endan-

gered, as not all danger areas can be eliminated if the func-

tional capability is to be maintained. Accidents caused by

these dangers can however be prevented by strictly ob-

serving these Operating Instructions. Over and above this,

the operational efficiency of your EasyPull can be used to

the full and unnecessary faults can be prevented.

After reading these Operating Instructions for the first time,

keep them in a safe place for future reference over the en-

tire lifetime of the EasyPull. If you sell the EasyPull, hand

these Operating Instructions over to the new owner.

All details, figures and dimensions contained in these Oper-

ating Instructions are non-binding. No claims in any form

can be derived from these.

This document must not be reproduced or duplicated, in full

or in part, without the prior, written permission of the man-

ufacturer.

The EasyPull must be converted or modified in any way,

without seeking the prior, written permission of the manu-

facturer. The manufacturer will not be held responsible in

any way whatsoever if conversions or modifications are car-

ried out without authorisation.

Use only original spare parts or spare parts which have

been approved of by the manufacturer. If spare parts other

than these are used, this can have a negative effect on the

specified characteristics, the functionality and safety of the

EasyPull. Using non-original or unauthorised spare parts will

render the guarantee null and void.

Contact our customer services department to order spare

parts or accessories (see Chapter 12, page 49).

1.1 Proper Use

The operational reliability of the EasyPull is only guaranteed

if it is put to proper use. It must therefore only be used for

the purpose for which it is intended.

The EasyPull is only deemed to be in proper use when it is

used to pull wheelchair-bound persons or unoccupied

wheelchairs into vehicles that are specifically designed or

converted to transport disabled persons. The vehicle must

be fitted with an access ramp for this purpose. The EasyPull

only secures the front of the wheelchair. For transportation,

the wheelchair must be secured with additional belts at the

rear. The passenger in the wheelchair must wear a safety

belt.

Proper use also includes strict adherence to the information

given in these Operating Instructions.

ARNING!

If the EasyPull is used for any other purpose than that de-

scribed above, this may result in dangerous situations for

persons or material damage being caused.

Therefore:

 Only use the EasyPull for the purpose for which it was

intended.

 Always adhere to information given in these Operating In-

structions.

 Do not use the EasyPull for any other purposes, particu-

larly those given in Section 1.2. These are deemed to be

improper use.

1.2 Improper Use

Any use other than that described in Section 1.1 is deemed

to be improper use.

These include in particular:

 Pulling any objects other than wheelchair-bound persons

or unoccupied wheelchairs.

 Allowing operation by incompetent operators.

 Making unauthorised modifications to the EasyPull.

 Operating the Swivel Lift when it has safety-relevant faults

or is in a faulty condition.
