Further more information on the security features of Fiorella F300:

 




Automatic Roll Stops:

The flaps were designed to avoid potential accidents to transported persons and operators. The Outboard Roll Stop is lifted automatically when the platform leaves the floor and it prevents the person in the wheelchair from falling. Please remember that it is a good norm to actuate the brakes of the wheelchair before making any movement! The Inner Roll Stop is raised during the ascent and descent to avoid the feet of the person in the wheelchair from striking the bumper of the vehicle.



Protection Shells:

besides giving a pleasant and reassuring look, the Protection Shells prevent the access to moving parts in the lift arm and allow the operator to make all transactions in total security.



Emergency Device:

manual handling system to open and close the platform even in case of a problem to the electrical system of the vehicle or if the battery is discharged. The lever for manual lifting is directly accessible on the front of the unit and it is simple to operate.

 

Specific Mounting Brackets:

Fiorella F300 is always delivered with a system of brackets, specifically designed for each vehicle. This allowed us to be the first manufacturer in Italy to make a Crash Test on the lift. The test has shown that even in case of impact in any direction, the lift is securely anchored to the floor of the vehicle and later it is still unable to play its function and return to the ground the person in the wheelchair.

 

* Anti-crushing Device:

along the entire length of the main arm an electronic sensor activates when a foreign body is interposed between the arms of the lift. For example, if an operator were to inadvertently put a hand between the lift arms, the sensor detects it, the arm stops and comes back a few inches to free the limb. The device is so sensitive and quick that operator receives no crushing. This crushing is notified with an message on the LCD Display and an acoustic signal.



* Scheduled Maintenance:

perform regular maintenance is important to have a lift in perfect health. Furthermore, an efficient aid is even more secure!
For this reason we have built a device that, by analyzing the device use and the time from last maintenance, will remind to the user when it's time to take the next maintenance.

 

* Anti Flipping System:

What would happen if the platform were inadvertently closed when the wheelchair is still on it? Better not to think about it ... because we have already thought about it! The anti-Flipping intervenes and blocks the movement of the platform when it is open to floor level. For this reason we like to say "Feel Relieved" ... from all worries..
