MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Clean the stairlift regularly with a damp cloth; avoid excessive use of water. Ensure the track is kept free of dirt and dust.
Over time the track wheels may leave a mark on the rail.
Preventive maintenance
In addition to cleaning your stairlift, periodic preventive maintenance is necessary for continued long-term use.
Your stairlift must be serviced at least once a year by a qualified person. If your stairlift has more than two users we
recommend a minimum of two services per year.
Please make an electrical socket available to provide local lighting if required during inspection and servicing. Lighting to
a minimum value of 50 lux shall be provided at the boarding points whilst the stairlift is in use.
Most light bulb packaging will detail the lux value of the light bulb.
