• Footrest safety sensors stop the stair lift in either direction should it strike anything on the stairs.
• The stair lift seat is equipped with a seat belt and a safety switch that prevents the unit from running unless the seat is in its proper position.
• The aircraft cable has mechanical and electrical safeties to stop the stair lift in place and shut down the power if the cable is not at its proper tension.
• Limit switches on the stair lifts shut the unit off in the same place at the top and bottom of the stairs automatically.
• Summit stair lifts has a wide, thick, padded seat available in vinyl or leather upholstery that folds up when not in use.
• The large rocker switch on the arm of your choice and a 180-degree swivel seat make using the stair lift simple.
  
• A magazine rack is included.
• The fold-up footrest adjusts to two different levels to suit your need.
• The backrest has three different positions to make sure you are as comfortable.
• A power indicator light on the stair lifts track assuring you that unit is ready to use.
• The aircraft cable in the drive system is rated 4,200 lbs. breaking strength.
• A spare fuse is under the 115-volt plug so you can replace it yourself if necessary.
• The motor and gear have been tested in excess of 30,000 cycles – 16 years of use – and neither showed excessive wear.
• Summit stair lifts can be placed on either side of a staircase, and the unit control can be placed in either arm.
• Standard call controls are mounted on the floor at each end of the staircase and can be foot operated or can be placed on the wall and operated by hand.
• Either location allows you to call the lift to you regardless of where the lift is on the track.
• The warranty is transferable should you decide to resell your lift!
• No grease, no oil, no powders, no lubricants, no parts designed to need upgrading, no battery replacements, no maintenance of any kind.
  
• Unlike most lifts that have gearboxes with vent plugs, the gearbox on the Summit Stair Lift is completely sealed, preventing the possibility of oil leaking onto your carpet.
• Virtually all other stair lifts also use gear racks and pinion gears (rack and pinion) to drive the lift. These must be lubricated with dust-collecting grease to prevent damage from occurring. Summit Stair Lifts believes dust collecting greases belong in your garage - not in your home

Chassis & Drive Train.

• 1. No oil / vent plug in gear – the gearbox is sealed and is filled with grease instead of traditional gear oil. This means no chance of leaking or spillage. The gear is one of the largest in the stairway lift market today.
  
• 2. Drive system – a belt is used between the motor and gear instead of a direct connection as manufacturers were unable to guarantee the elimination of key noise between a coupled drive system. It also simplifies serviceability.
  
• 3. Motor – Through the design of a dual capacitor system, the instant reversing motor (1/3 hp, 110vac) uses only 3 wires and runs at 6 amps at full load. This allows installation in the home without need for a dedicated outlet.
  
• 4. Aircraft cable – using 3/16” dia. Cable instead of traditional 1/8” dia. Cable allows for a breaking strength of 4200 lbs. vs. 2000 lbs. The cable wraps on an aluminum cast drum, grooved for each wrap. This eliminates noise and problems caused by stack winding issues. The cable system on the stair lift is direct drive – meaning there are no pulleys and the cable does not move.
  
  Optional stair lift colors
• 3 in vinyl and 3 in leather
• A large, easy to use paddle switch on the armrest
  
• A 3-position adjustable height back rest for optimum comfort
  
• 180 degree swivel as standard

This Model....has several unique features:

• A magazine rack that can be used for books, newspapers, etc.
  
• A 2 position adjustable height footrest for persons of varying height and disabilities.
• Eight rollers instead of the traditional four. This gives a more consistent ride with less movement. It also cuts in half the load on each roller eliminating flat spots and premature roller wear.
• 3. Track – features of the aluminum extruded track include:
  
• A completely smooth bottom. This allows the lift to sit firmly on the stair noses and reduces permanent ridges or marks left once the lift is removed.
  
• Track splices located immediately next to the roller channels to provide for an optimum ride at each splice – not on the bottom of the track.
  
• Conduit channels in the track to reduce installation time and improve the look of the overall installation. This eliminates holes in the wall / stairs.
  

Stair Lifts Installation & Service.

• 1. Weight – the heaviest component of the lift is 70lbs, allowing for a true one-man installation.
  
• 2. Installation – if the track is cut prior to going out to the home, this installation can be accomplished easily in 90 minutes. This is done by providing several small, yet important features in the design: Track brackets on the wall side only. A trough extruded in the track for use as a conduit for the call control wires. Footswitch call controls (can be used as a wall mount if desired). These are mounted to the floor at each end of the track. No stripping or connecting of individual wires. Internal wires – including the power cord – are connected via modular plugs. By placing the hardware needed in the proper location prior to shipping, hardware packages are eliminated.
  
• 3. Flexibility – the lift can be cut down in length, track can be swapped between units, or it can be reversed in the field without cutting any wires or using any additional components. It is ideal for renting.
  
• 4. Seviceability – the electrical components are easy to reach for testing when service is needed. Harnesses can be unplugged to perform voltage checks. The limit switches are larger and more durable than other lifts to assure long life.
  
• 5. Spare parts – a large number of the components of stair lifts are off the shelf items available at OEM stores around the country. This allows for immediate access to parts needed if service is required.
