Common QuestionsHow can I make sure the lift will work with my vehicle and my power wheelchair?
Call our expert Service staff, let us know your vehicle make, model, and year,
and The wheelchair you plan to lift. We do the research and tell you if the combination
will work. If you place your order online, please note your vehicle and
scooter or wheelchair information in the notes section during checkout
and we will make sure the combination works before your order is
shipped.
How do I install my lift? Installing Manually Operated Wheelchair Lifts:
Most manually operated wheelchair lifts can be installed yourself.
Manual lifts, like the Tilt-A-Rack line or the EZ Carrier line, slide
into a hitch on the back of your vehicle. The Tilt and Rack line even has a Wheel
accessory which allows you to install and remove the hitch with just
one person.
Installing Power Operated Wheelchair Lifts:
Electrically-powered wheelchair and scooter lifts may require drilling
into the trunk or storage space of the vehicle, or wiring the unit
directly to the car battery, so Medical Department Store recommends that a reputable
auto mechanic or U-Haul location install the power car lifts. One
exception is the Back Packer from
Silver Star. It easily attaches to the third-row seat hardware in many
mini-vans, and can be operated using a rechargeable battery, making it
a snap to install yourself. Also, all Silver Star Wheelchair and Scooter Lifts
by Pride Mobility include the option of Expert Nationwide Installation,and Medical Department Store Can coordinate the entire installation process.
