Swivel Seat • The Stairlift seat swivels and locks in position at 45 and 90 degrees and puts users feet

firmly on to the top landing area making getting on and off the seat easier and safer.

• The Stairlift will not operate unless the seat is in the correct riding position. (Back

against the wall)

• Regular Seat Rated to 300 LBS

• Wider Seat Rated to 350 LBS

• Seat arms can be adjusted to extend wider by 1” either side (17.5” to 19.5”)

• 24” is needed to park the lift at the bottom of the steps. 28.5” if the wider seat is

being used.

• Wide seats will not swivel in very narrow staircases. The 17.5” seat needs a

minimum width of 26” to turn the full 90⁰. A 19.5” seat would require 28.5”

Seats

• The directional control switches are operated by the lightest touch, even by

those with limited dexterity.

• Acorn stairlifts have controls on each arm so that the user can use either

hand to operate.

• Stairlift will not operate if lower arm rest is in up position

Control Operation

HOW IS THE PLAN

DIFFERENT?

• Acorn stairlifts have a soft start and soft stop.

• Remote controls allow users to ‘call’ or ‘send’ the lift up and down the staircase. We

provide two remote controls with each stairlift.

Remote Controls

• Our focus on safety features ensures we provide the best seatbelts for our

customers.

• Acorn stairlifts have retractable seat belts except on the outdoor model.

Retractable Seat Belt

Multiple safety edges ensure that the stairlift will stop immediately if an obstruction

is encountered on the staircase.

Safety Sensors

• Acorn Stairlifts come equipped with an over speed governor. If an emergency

situation ever occurred the OSG would prevent the lift from traveling down at

excessive speed.

• The OSG uses electrical and mechanical stops.

Safety

A lockable on/off switch allows the user to prevent others from using the lift. It also has

a digital diagnostic display.

Diagnostics

Track fits directly on to stair nose and fixes on to stair tread

Five Basic Measurements Needed

Pieces in a Typical Stairlift Delivery An ACORN Stairlift delivery is made up of three main parts:

• Carriage

• Seat

• Rail: STD Length 15’6” – (Also have: 19’8” and 23’0” these are special

ordered)

Batteries

STD Heavy Duty

Power Outlets

• Please make sure that the customer is aware that a power outlet will be

required for the Stairlift installation.

• If two straight Stairlifts are installed, each one must have its own separate

power outlet. Two Stairlifts cannot be linked into one outlet. However a power

strip can be used to supply both lifts.

• If the closest outlet is too far for our cord to reach (approx 20ft), the client

must provide a temporary extension cords to use. We highly suggest that the

client utilize an electrician for a permanent outlet to be installed.
