4. Emergency Stop
The red Emergency Stop Button is located on the front of the control box and is acti-
vated by pressing in. This will cut all power to the lift and only be reset by twisting
the button anticlockwise and releasing.
5. Electrical Emergency Down/Up
Emergency lower (down) and raise (up) buttons are provided at the front of the control
box. This is operated by inserting a ballpoint pen into the button highlighted
This will bring the boom up or down should the hand control fail at any time.
6. Mechanical Emergency Down
In the case of a complete electrical failure the Stature lift is fitted with mechanical
lowering device. This device is located on the left hand side of the lift's chassis.
The lowering mechanism is operated by inserting a 6mm Hex socket into the aperture
and onto the mechanism turning clockwise to raise the lift and anticlockwise to lower
the lift. This can be done manually with a socket wrench.
Recommendation!
In order to raise or lower the boom more quickly it is recommended that a 6mm Hex
socket be used in conjunction with a 1/4 inch drive adaptor and an electric reversible
drill. (Note– do not use hammer setting.) This will increase the speed in which the
patient can be safely raised and lowered. A 6mm Hex socket is contained in the top cap
located on the top of the mast.

7. Batteries
The batteries are protected from deep discharge by a LOW VOLTAGE ALARM. This will
sound when the batteries need recharging and the hand control is being operated. It
will not sound independently of the hand control being operated. DO NOT IGNORE
THIS WARNING ALARM. Complete the lifting operation and place the battery on

charge (see charging instructions).
8. Slings
The Oxford/Hoyer Stature has the option of both a 6 point spreader bar and a 4 point posi-
tioning cradle. Both systems use different attachment methods and slings.
The 6 point system uses slings with webbing loops, which allow positioning adjustment
by selecting different coloured loops. The 4 point cradle uses the Secruri3 safety clip
system and adjustment is made by rotating the 4 point cradle either upward or down.
Loop strap slings: Oxford/Hoyer Quick Fit, Full back, Quick fit deluxe,
Safety clip slings: Oxford/Hoyer Four point comfort sling & pad
The 6 point system attaches to the spreader bar hooks via loop straps (shown below),
each sling is supplied with instructions. Please study the instruction guide before use.
