LIFTING CAPABILITIES
The lift system is an electromechanical device designed to lift and secure various types of mobility
devices for the purpose of vehicle transport. The Outlander is designed for use with Class II, Class III,
or Class IV hitches. Check the hitch capabilities of your vehicle prior to use. Under no circumstances
should the lift system be made to exceed this weight limit. Subjecting the lift system to the strain of
hoisting more than it is designed to lift may cause it to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility device
and/or injury to the lift operator. Refer to the mobility device owner's manual for information on the
overall weight of the mobility device before lifting.
WARNING! Adding accessories, oversize batteries, or a different seat will increase the weight of your mobility
device. Verify with your authorized Pride Provider that the total weight of your mobility device, including
additions, does not exceed the maximum hitch allowance.

INSTALLATION

The lift system is designed to be mounted to a vehicle hitch system. Before lift installation, ensure that
the hitch shows no signs of rust or wear and that the front and rear vehicle suspension is acceptable. If
any vehicle alterations are necessary, make sure that you fully understand the instructions for drilling or
cutting before making any alterations.
WARNING! Before drilling or cutting into the vehicle, make absolutely certain through visual inspection that
there are no obstructions, such as the fuel tank, exhaust pipes, or electrical wires, in the path of the drill bit.
LIFTING NON-PRIDE PRODUCTS
The lift system is an extremely versatile device, which users may employ to lift items other than Pride
products. Pride has no control over such use, nor can Pride anticipate every possible use to which a lift
system may be put. Lifting non-Pride products with the lift system is done at the operator's own risk, and
Pride accepts no liability for damage or injury resulting from such use.
PRELIFT INSPECTION
Before operating the lift system, inspect your surroundings to ensure that the lift system has a clear
path of operation. Remove any possible obstructions before operating the lift and do not allow children
to operate or play near the lift.
OPERATOR POSITIONING
The operator of the lift should stand a safe distance from the unit being lifted/lowered to ensure that his/
her feet are never positioned under the raised lift platform. The operator should also keep his/her hands
clear of the lift system to avoid the potential for injury.
TRANSPORT VEHICLE POSITIONING
Be sure your vehicle is parked on flat, level ground before attempting to load, lift, or remove a mobility
device with the lift system. Make sure the vehicle emergency park brake is engaged before loading or
unloading a mobility device.
