BATTERY INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT
BATTERY CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care of your battery will insure a long life and trouble free ser-
vice. Stand Aid uses a sealed battery that DOES NOT require water and
will not emit harmful vapors when charging.
If you use your lift unit extensively on a daily basis, charge your bat-
tery 2-3 times per week for 8-10 hours per charging session.
If you put your Stand Aid in storage the battery should be fully charged
and recharged every 45 days. Never let your battery go completely dead.
Keep the battery dry and do not lay any object on top of it.
In order to charge your battery; simply plug the charger into any
standard wall receptacle.
1. Cut wire ties that secure the battery in it’s holder.
2. Unplug Electrical connections and replace battery. Dispose of old
battery properly
IMPORTANT: UNPLUG BOTH POWER SOURCE PLUG CONNECTIONS.
IMPORTANT: CHARGE NEW BATTERY FOR 10-12
HOURS BEFORE USING
Page 11
Page 12
CHARGING PROCESS
FOR THE STAND AID MODEL 1501, PLUG THE POWER CORD INTO A
WALL ELECTRICAL OUTLET, THE CHARGER IS LOCATED NEXT TO
THE BATTERY IN BATTERY PAN.
Please be advised that you can over-charge the battery. Stand Aid has
changed the Battery Charger system. The current charger will give a slow
trickle if the charger is left on the battery for a long period of time. Please
use proper care, and try not to charge the battery more than 12 consecu-
tive hours at one given time. This will help insure the battery’s long life,
and trouble free service.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER CHARGE THE UNIT FOR MORE THAN 10-12 HOURS AT A TIME.
NEVER OPERATE THE UNIT WHILE THE UNIT IS CHARGING.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Keep all electrical connections clean and dry.
If the lift operates slowly, charge the battery for 18-24 hours. If the unit
still operates slowly, you may need to change the battery. Replacement
battery may be ordered by calling Stand Aid of Iowa at 1-800-831-8580.
CAUTION!! DO NOT OPERATE YOUR STAND AID
LIFT ARMS WHILE CHARGING THE BATTERY!!
If one or both of the lift arms fail to operate, check all electrical connec-
tions by disconnecting, cleaning and reconnecting. If this does not remedy
the situation, call 1-800-831-8580 and ask for the service department.
For any other repairs, maintenance or trouble shooting, please feel free to
call during regular business hours from 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. CST.

Place the sling under your buttocks with the rings exposed on each
side. Next, remove the footpads from your wheelchair and position the
chair in the rear of the Stand Aid. Loosen the foot straps on the floor of the
Stand Aid and place your feet on the floor. The strap that fits over the top
of your instep should be snug but not tight. The heel straps should fit be-
hind the heel to prevent the foot from slipping. Adjust the height of the
kneepad so your knees are centered in the pad. The Kneepad may be ad-
justed by loosening the two black knobs behind the knee pad & position-
ing the pad correctly, then retighten the knobs.
The sling “D-rings” should slip easily onto the lift arm hooks . We rec-
ommend that the lift arm slide hook adjustment should be approximately
midway between the hip and waist when you are in a standing position.
After a few standing sessions, you will find the most comfortable setting for
your slide hooks.
Once the sling “D-rings” are on the lift arm hooks, and sling correctly
under your buttocks. Push the lift switch forward to lift yourself from the
wheelchair to a standing position. Carefully lift yourself until your legs are
straight and you feel comfortable. IMPORTANT: Exercise caution for the
first several times you raise yourself to assure not only your safety, but
your comfort as well. (refer to images below for visual reference.)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HEEL STRAP
TOE STRAP
Once you have entered the Stand Aid 1501 and are in an upright posi-
tion, close the safety gate behind you and adjust the unit to the correct
height by loosening the four knobs for upper side adjustment. Raise or
lower the upper side rails of the Stand Aid until the safety gate is support-
ing the lower half of the buttocks. Retighten all knobs. This adjustment is
important to ensure that your buttock does not slide under the safety gate.
If further adjustment is necessary you can move the safety gate and latch
using a 3/16” allen wrench on the allen head screws. Use either one of the
safety gate pads or both to support your buttocks against the safety gate.
The velcro strips will keep the pads in place.
The table height adjustment is important for upper body positioning.
The chest pad should be positioned near the bottom of the sternum, the
point on your rib cage where your bottom two ribs meet. In order to main-
tain correct posture, the table may be adjusted in or out in order to align
the upper and lower portions of your body. The safety belt hooks to the
rings located under each side of the table frame just ahead of the chest
pad.
Now that most adjustments have been made, check and retighten all
knobs to ensure that your Stand Aid will remain in the proper position.
Adjustment Knobs.
Four knobs located in
the front corners and
rear frame.

STAND AID SAFETY SWITCH
Stand Aid of Iowa has added a
safety switch to the 1501 model. This
switch is located in front of the knee pad
and to the right; it is silver in color. The
safety switch will allow the user to oper-
ate the lift mechanism on the Stand Aid,
ONLY if the main lift switch fails, or will
not operate while user is standing! If you
experience problems with the main
switch, use the back up switch, and call
for a replacement IMMEDIATELY. This
back up switch is intended to be a safety
feature and not for everyday use.
Never run both the lift switch and
the safety switch at the same time! This
will cause electrical failure.
