SECTION 7—MAINTENANCE

Stand Up Patient Lift

Part No. 1078984

Lubricating the Lift

The Invacare lift is designed for minimum maintenance. 
However, a six month check and lubrication should ensure 
continued safety and reliability.

Keep lift and slings clean and in good working order. Any 
defect should be noted and reported to your dealer as soon 
as possible.

The casters MUST swivel and roll smoothly. A light grease 
(waterproof auto lubricant) may be applied to the ball 
bearing swivel of the casters once a year. Apply more 
frequently if the casters are exposed to extreme moist 
conditions.

Adjusting the Base

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 7.1 on page 22.
1.

Check the squareness of the legs when in the CLOSED 
position.

2.

Place a square on the inside of the legs and base to 
determine the 90° alignment.

3.

Adjust the linkage rods until 90° alignment is achieved.

Adjusting the Knee Pad Height

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 7.2.

ƽ WARNING

the standing position.
NEVER try to adjust the knee pad while the lift

is moving.
ALWAYS make sure that the adjustment pins

are engaged in corresponding height adjust-

ment holes before use.

1.

Pick a height setting that will be comfortable to the 
patient and provide the necessary support.

NOTE: The knee pad should be positioned so that the knee portion 
of the leg is in contact with the pad.
2.

Using both hands, pull both adjustment pins outward 
at the same time.

3.
