OPERATING CONTROLS

1. Leg adjustment
The legs on the Oxford/Hoyer Stature are electrically adjustable for width. The legs can
be opened to enable access around armchairs or wheelchairs. For transferring and negoti-
ating narrow doorways and passages the lift legs should be in the closed position.
Electric leg adjustment - is achieved by pressing the appropriate buttons on the hand
control. The legs will be locked whenever the hand control switch is released.
2. Castors and Braking
The lift has two braked castors which can be applied for parking. When lifting, the
castors should be left free and un-braked. The lift will then be able to move to the
centre of gravity. If the brakes are applied it is the patient that will swing to the cen-
tre of gravity and this may prove disconcerting and uncomfortable. Attached to the
rear castor is a straight line steering device, which when applied to the castor will
facilitate straight line movement.
3. Raising and lowering the boom
The movement of the boom carriage is achieved by a powerful motor gearbox, which is
controlled by a simple hand control unit. The hand control has two buttons with direc-
tional arrows UP and DOWN
of travel in both directions. The hand control plugs into a socket at the base of the
control box. SAFETY NOTE– The downward movement of the boom will stop if the lift
senses that the patient has encountered an obstruction.
