Before beginning the installation please
ensure that the track is the required length.
Refer to Appendix 5 for details.
Items required: Tools required:
• Fit kit • 2.5mm Allen key
Splice bars x 3 • 3mm Allen key
Track ends cap x 1 • 6mm Allen key
Red bag • 13mm Spanner
8 x bolts • Hacksaw
4 x grub screws • Tin snips
Final limit stops x 1
End stops x 1
Mounting feet x 3
• Top track section x 1
• Bottom track section x 1
1 Position the bottom section of the track (2m)
on the stairs with the splice holes at the top
(Figure 1). Regardless of the hand of the lift
the rack should always be on the left hand
side of the track when looking up the stairs.
2 Bolt in the splice bars to the bottom section of
track extrusion (Figure 2) using 2 grub screws
for the top splice bar and the 4 bolts in the
bottom splice bars (from the red fittings bag).

Track assembly
Note: Ensure that the splice bars are positioned
in the track in the correct orientation. The splice
bar has three flat faces and one sloping face.
The sloping face MUST be positioned against
the sloping face on the extrusion (Figure 3).
3 If the track is less than 2000mm and cutting
to length on site:
a Remove the charge spring contact
(Figure 4).
b Using the loading tool, push the plastic
carrier strip up the top section of track
(Figure 5).

Figure 10
MINIVATOR SIMPLICITY+ INSTALLATION MANUAL 5
Track assembly
c At the top end of the top section use a
hacksaw to remove the excess plastic
carrier strip (Figure 6).
d Carefully replace the charge spring contact.
4 Position the top section of track adjacent
to the bottom section of track (Figure 7).
5 Offer up the adjacent track section in the
normal way. Run the two core top safety
edge/end cap cable to the top of the track.
Bolt together the two track sections as normal.
6 Bolt both sections of track together (Figure 8).
The bolts should be tightened in sequence:
a left bottom d left top
b centre bottom e centre top
c right bottom f right top
Repeat this process until the bolts are all secure
(torque setting 8-9Nm).
7 Push the plastic carrier strip down from the
top track section to meet the plastic carrier
strip in the bottom section. The plastic carrier
strip will finish 10mm short of the end of the
track. Carefully feed down the copper charge
strip (Figure 9) and trim to the same length
as the plastic carrier strip.
8 Check that the charge strip has made proper
contact with the spring contact at the bottom
of the track (Figure 4).
Note: Ensure that the track is connected
with all faces level so that no step is present
in the joint.
Note: Excessive force can damage and
prevent the spring contact from making
a proper connection.
9 Slide the three mounting feet on to the track
(Figure 10).
Note: See page 8 for Slide Track positioning.

10 Position the feet in the following way
(Figure 11):
a The top foot should be positioned on the
last tread.
b The middle foot should be positioned
immediately next to the spliced joint. If the
top section is longer than the bottom then
the foot should be ABOVE the spliced joint,
if not, then the foot should be BELOW the
spliced joint.
c The bottom foot should be positioned on
the first tread.
11 Loosely tighten the feet to stop them from
moving. The feet will help to stop the track
from moving on the stairs while the next
steps are performed.
Note: If the stairlift is being fitted to a staircase
with open bannisters on the bannister side
they must be covered with a solid sheet
material for safety.
12 If the power supply is:
a At the top of the track:
• Feed the long power cable with the push
terminals from the power supply through
the large cavity in the assembled track.
b At the bottom of the track:
• Bring the long power cable with the push
terminals from the power supply to the
bottom of the track.
13 Slide the track up the stairs and position it
centrally to give you sufficient room to work
comfortably at the bottom of the stairs.
14 Connect the positive push terminal (WHITE
CABLE) to the red push terminal attached
to the busbar (Figure 12).
15 Connect the negative push terminal (BLACK
CABLE) to the push terminal from the track.
16 Fit the bottom end stop and final limit stop
to the bottom of the track only (Figure 13).

Track assembly
Note: The shorter (square ended stop)
must be fitted in the top channel – failure
to do this correctly could damage the lift.
17 Fit the bottom end cap to the track
(Figure 14), ensuring that the power supply
cable is fed through the channel provided
so that it exits the track on the WALL side.
18 Tighten the grub screws to secure the end
cap to the track.
19 Now slide the bottom end stop and final limit
stop so that they sit against the positioning
extensions of the end cap and then tighten
the grub screws (Figure 14).
Note: The grub screws on the end cap
should not be over tightened.

Items required: Tools required:
• None • 13mm Spanner
• 13mm Socket
1 Slide the track to the side of the stairs that
it will be finally located to position the feet.
The feet should be positioned so that they
are touching the stringer (Figure 15).
Note: If the stringer does not extend to the
tread, i.e. it overhangs the staircase, use a
plumb line to mark a position on the stairs.
The feet should all be positioned in this way.

Feet positioning
2 With the end of the track positioned so that
it is just touching the floor ensure that the
feet are still positioned on the stair treads
as previously described (Figure 11), i.e:
a The top foot should be positioned on
the last tread.
b The middle foot should be positioned
immediately above the spliced joint.
c The bottom foot should be positioned
on the first tread.
3 Tighten the bolts on the feet (Figure 16).
Slide Track only
4 Position the first (fixed) foot on the second
step of the staircase. Then position and
loosely fix the second foot to the stairs,
two full steps below the track splice point
(or the end of the track for a single section
track), to allow clearance when the Slide
Track moves (Figure 17). The track should
be approximately 25mm from the nose of
the stairs.
5 Position the remaining feet on the steps and
loosely fix them to the stairs. The last foot
needs to be positioned two full steps down
from the top of the stairs, whilst the third foot
should be as close as possible to the splice.
6 The feet should sit as close as possible to the
stringer (Figure 18).
Note: Track may need to be moved out
to ensure seat clears.
7 If the track was not delivered pre-cut to
the correct length, trim the communications
busbar to the appropriate length to
accommodate the top end cap (Figures
4, 5 and 19).
8 Clip on the stringer-side roller covers using
the tacks provided. Then, with the track in
approximately the correct position, put a
screw into each foot to stabilise the track
(Figure 20).

Loading the power pack
Loading the power pack
Items required: Tools required:
• Power pack • Loading toggle
• Fit Kit • Shorting links
End cap x 1
Green bag
Wood screws x 12
Final limit stops x 1
End stops x 1
Busbar pickup loading tool
(x 2 for Slide Track)
1 Carry the power pack box to the top of the
stairs.
2 Unpack the power pack from its box carefully.
3 Move the track away from the stringer slightly,
around 150mm, to give you more room to
work.
4 Remove the blanking plates from the side of
the power pack that will be facing the stairs
(Figure 21).
5 Connect the limit switch shorting links
(Figures 21 and 22).
6 Connect the driving links (or loading toggle)
(Figures 21 and 22).
7 Ensure that the busbar pickup loading tool
is correctly positioned (Figure 23).
8 Carefully slide the power pack onto the track
until the drive pinion meets the beginning of
the rack (Figure 24).
9 Turn the power pack on from the main switch
on the lower safety edge (Figure 25).
10 Using the loading driving links or toggle
switch (Figure 26), drive the power pack
onto the track. The power pack should be
driven to a position approximately half way
between the top and middle foot.
11 Fit the top end stop and final limit stop to the
top of the track (Figure 27).
Note: The shorter (square ended stop) must
be fitted in the top channel – failure to do
this correctly could damage the lift.
12 Fit the top end cap to track and tighten the
grub screws to secure it.
Note: The grub screws on the end cap should
not be over tightened. If the power supply
is being connected at the top of the stairs,
ensure that the power supply cable is fed
through the channel provided so that it exits
the track on the WALL side.
13 Now slide the top end stop and final limit
stop so that they sit against the positioning
extensions of the end cap and then tighten
the grub screws.
