1. Leg adjustment
The legs on the Oxford/Hoyer Arise are electrically adjustable for width. The legs can be
opened to enable access around armchairs or wheelchairs. For transferring and negotiat-
ing 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 handcontrol 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 of the lift. If the brakes are applied it is the patient that will swing
to the centre of gravity and this may prove disconcerting and uncomfortable.
3. Raising and lowering the boom
The movement of the boom is achieved by a powerful electric actuator, which is con-
trolled by a simple handcontrol unit. The handcontrol has two buttons with directional
arrows UP and DOWN . The actuator stops automatically at the limit of travel in
both directions. The handcontrol plugs into a socket at the base of the control box.

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 handcontrol fail at any time.
6. Mechanical Emergency Down
In the case of a complete electrical failure the electrical actuator is fitted with mechan-
ical lowering device (RED BOSS). This will only operate when the lift is under load. The
device must be pulled upwards to activate, and a slow decent will commence.
7. Batteries
The batteries are protected from deep discharge by a LOW VOLTAGE ALARM. This will
sound when the batteries need recharging and the handcontrol is being operated. It
will not sound independently of the handcontrol 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 Arise is suitable for patients in the SITTING, SITTING/RECUMBENT
and RECUMBENT positions. The slings suitable for this device are listed as follows:
* Oxford/Hoyer Transport sling
* Oxford/Hoyer Standing sling
9. Knee pad adjustment
The Arise has an adjustable kneepad. The range of travel is 6 inches. Adjustment is
achieved by loosening the knob located on the left hand side of the pad, so to loosen
the assembly enough to move the knee pad in either the upward, or downward position.
10. Removable footplate
The Arise has a removable footplate. To remove the foot plate, move to the front of
the product, and lift the footplate upward from the middle of the assemble. NOTE Be
careful when lifting the footplate from its low-seated position.
