FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY:
Your Oxford Presence lift has the option of using both a 6-point spreader bar or 4-point
positioning cradle.
The removal of either of these spreader bars is completed easily by the use of a quick-release
pin. This is done quickly and easily, but you must read the following safety instructions to ensure
the spreader bar is safely locked into position before use.
Removal:
1. To detach pin, depress the spring barb (Fig. 1 and 2).

2. Pull the pin out (Fig. 3, item 1).
3. Support the spreader bar, and then pull the pin sleeve (Fig. 3, item 2) in the opposite
direction, removing it from the boom. This will release the spreader bar completely (Fig 4).
Connection:
1. To connect, raise the spreader bar up toward the boom slot (Fig. 5). Insert the pin sleeve
through the plastic end cap and to support the cradle (Fig. 6, item 1).
2. Once aligned in the boom slot, reinsert the quick release pin fully into the sleeve until it locks
into position (Fig. 6, item 2).

3. YOU MUST CHECK THAT THE PIN IS SECURELY FITTED. To do this, press your finger
into the barbed end. If the pin remains stationary, the lift is safe to use (Fig. 7).
Conduct final inspection to ensure that all parts are secure (Fig. 8).
WARNING
The pin sleeve must engage through bracket on both sides. If the sleeve is not fully
engaged, misalignment and premature failure may result in injury/death to patient/
attendant.
