Trouble Shooting Steps
- Test the battery with a voltmeter or multi-meter
- If the battery has over 24 volts, proceed to place the battery on the lift’s control unit.
- If not, you will need to replace your battery, unless you have a HIWIN battery (see system identification section) then you will need to contact the warranty department to have a battery rebuild form sent to you.
- Once you have a fully charged battery on the control unit turn the key to the unlocked position or position the red knob on your control unit in the upright position.
- Depress the buttons on handset and watch for movement
