Stiltz Duo/ Trio Alta COP Function Lights1. The lift will not operate. | a. The most common cause is an obstruction of the light curtain, which guards the lift cab entrance. This can easily be caused by a handbag or arm. The light curtain (LC) light will flash. | Clear the obstruction and be vigilant that there is no obstruction periodically blocking the light curtain. To prevent this, stand closer to the rear wall of the lift. |
b. The cab operating panel (c.o.p.) key switch has been switched 'off'. | Turn the key 'on'. The 'on' position is when the key is in the horizontal position. | |
c. The COP emergency stop button has been depressed. | The stop button is a safety stop button that requires turning clockwise once pressed. Ensure the button is pressed, then turn clockwise until the button 'pops' out. Turn the key switch 'off' and then back to 'on' - to reset lift. | |
d. The lift cab door latch is making poor contact with the electric strike tongue. | Move your body position in the lift cab and try moving again. Slightly lift and/or slightly push/pull the lift cab door. Call Mobility123 to arrange a service visit. | |
e. The main power, from the home to the lift is off. This is easily identified, as the red main switch indicator lamp, the in ceiling towards the rear of the lift, is off. | Emergency battery lowering will be activated, immediately after the power outage. The lift will go downwards from the upper level to the lower level, if the power goes out. If the lift is at the lower level, it will not move upwards until the power is restored. If the power is on in the rest of the house, check the indicator light on the ceiling of the lift. If this is off, wait until power is restored. | |
