LIFTING CAPABILITIES

The Backpacker MV Lift System is designed for a maximum lifting capacity of 350 lbs. (158 kg). Under no

circumstances should the Backpacker MV Lift System be made to exceed this weight limit. Subjecting the lift

system to the strain of lifting more than it is designed to may cause it to fail, resulting in damage to the mobility

device and/or the lift operator. Refer to the mobility device owner’s manual for information on the overall weight of

the mobility device before lifting.

MANDATORY! Adding accessories, oversize batteries, or a different seat will increase the

weight of your mobility device. Verify with your authorized Pride Provider that the total

weight of your mobility device, including additions, DOES NOT exceed 350 lbs. (158 kg).

INSTALLATION

Your Backpacker MV Lift System is an inside SUV lift designed for installation into various brands of SUVs, full-

sized and mini vans. Read and fully understand the installation instructions provided in this manual and related

literature for your brand of vehicle before installing the lift system.

LIFTING NON-PRIDE PRODUCTS

The Backpacker MV Lift System is an extremely versatile device which users may employ to lift items other than

Pride products. Pride has no control over such use, nor can Pride anticipate every possible use to which a Back-

packer MV Lift System may be put. Lifting non-Pride products with the Backpacker MV Lift System is done at

the operator’s own risk, and Pride accepts no liability for damage or injury resulting from such use.

PRELIFT INSPECTION

Before operating the Backpacker MV Lift System, conduct a careful survey of your surroundings to ensure that

the lift system has a clear path of operation. Remove any possible obstructions before operating the lift and do not

allow children to operate or play near the lift. Ensure that all parts of the lift system are completely fastened before

loading the mobility device onto the lift platform, and make sure the mobility device is properly secured before

operating the lift system.

OPERATOR POSITIONING

The operator of the lift should stand a safe distance from the unit being lifted/lowered to ensure that his/her

feet are never positioned under the raised lift platform. The operator should also keep his/her hands clear of the lift

system during operation.

TRANSPORT VEHICLE POSITIONING

Be sure your vehicle is parked on flat, level ground before attempting to load, lift, or remove a mobility

device with the Backpacker MV Lift System. Make sure the vehicle emergency park brake is engaged before

loading or unloading a mobility device.

III. INSTALLATION

BACKPACKER MV LIFT SYSTEM INSTALLATION

WARNING! The Backpacker MV Lift should be installed by an authorized service

technician only.

WARNING! At least two people should lift the Backpacker MV into the rear of the vehicle.

Use proper lifting techniques and avoid lifting beyond your physical capability.

WARNING! Avoid pinch points! Do not hold the lift frame by the pivot points when installing

the Backpacker MV.

NOTE: Use only the supplied hardware to install the Backpacker MV Lift System.

Follow these steps to install the Backpacker MV:

1. Install the Backpacker MV securement kit to the vehicle. Refer to the installation instructions supplied with the

securement system.

NOTE: Securement systems vary depending on vehicle manufacturer. Refer to the installation

instructions supplied with your securement system or contact your authorized Pride Provider for

more information.

2. Connect the Backpacker MV to a power source. See “Wiring Harness Installation.”

NOTE: If your lift is equipped with an optional onboard battery, refer to “Onboard Battery Installation.”

3. Ensure that all mounting hardware is fully tightened once the lift has been centered and all required clearances

have been achieved.

NOTE: If there is not adequate clearance between the bumper and the platform frame, you may need to

install an end support bracket. Remove the Backpacker MV from the van and install the end support

bracket close to the rear door opening. Reinstall the lift into the van, making sure that the bolts pro-

truding from the bottom plate of the Backpacker MV closest to the vehicle door snap into the tapped

holes on the top of the end support bracket.

NOTE: It may be required to trim the rear inside sill to achieve the adequate platform clearance with

the platform under load.

4. Run the Backpacker MV through an entire lift cycle. Lower the platform to the ground and then raise the

platform to the fully stowed position in the van. See IV. “Operation.”

NOTE: Ensure the transit screw and washer have been removed from the front of the lift and the rubber

bushing has been installed before operation. See figures 1 and 2.

NOTE: Pay attention to the path of the lift platform during operation. Make sure the lift does not rub

against or interfere with the vehicle in any way. If you notice any contact between the lift platform and

the vehicle, stop lift operation immediately and contact your authorized Pride Provider for assistance.

III. INSTALLATION

Figure 1. Transit Screw Removal

WARNING! Release the “DOWN”

button when the lift platform

touches the ground. Do not allow

the motor to run after the lift

platform has touched the ground.

Allowing the motor to run will

increase the pressure on the lift

platform and may result in product

or vehicle damage.

Wiring Harness Installation

The wiring harness is approximately 25 ft. (7.62

meters) long and will accommodate most vehicles.

NOTE: You may wish to perform a practice run

before installing the wiring harness. Route a

piece of light rope (equivalent to the gage of the

wiring harness) along the anticipated path ob-

serving contact points, potential rubbing/chaf-

ing points, and any sharp edges. Remove sharp

edges with a fine grade file, then treat the steel

with a rust inhibitor or metal sealant.

WARNING! Route the wiring

harness through the vehicle rather

than under the vehicle to avoid

coming in contact with sharp

edges, extreme temperatures,

moving parts, and roadway debris.

Power shorts may occur if wires

come in contact with hot exhaust

parts or sharp edges.

WARNING! Never attach the wiring

harness to a secondary power

source. Do not attempt to use

trailer wiring to power the lift

system. The wiring harness must

be connected directly to the

vehicle battery.

VEHICLE BATTERY WIRINGHARNESS LIFT WIRING CONNECTION

Follow these steps to route the Backpacker MV wiring harness:

1. Route the lift system wiring harness (starting at the lift) through the interior of the vehicle until you reach the

vehicle battery. See figure 3.

WARNING! Avoid routing the wire harness where it will interfere with or become pinched

by the securement system.

2. Conceal the harness behind or under the interior panels (there should be existing holes). Be certain that the

harness is protected with a rubber grommet when passing it through the metal panels and into the engine

compartment.

3. Inside the engine compartment, secure the harness to the firewall and the inner fender with plastic wire ties. Use

care not to cause abrasions to the wiring harness. It is important to secure the wiring harness at various points

along its run of the vehicle.

WARNING! Do not cut or shorten the wiring harness. If the harness is too long, coil the

excess wire and secure it with plastic wire ties.

4. Remove the 15-amp fuse from the wiring harness. See figure 3.

5. Connect the red wire to the positive (+) terminal and the black (grounding) wire to the negative (-) terminal

of the vehicle battery.

6. Reinstall the 15-amp fuse to the wiring harness.

WARNING! Before operating the lift, inspect the wiring harness for proper routing and grounding.

Improper routing can cause damage to the harness, and improper grounding can cause damage

to the electrical system.
