Troubleshooting the Pinnacle SL300 stairlift is a straightforward process. Common issues, such as the lift not operating, may be identified by listening to the audible beeps emitted, which indicate specific faults. For instance, an intermittent beep often signals that the lift is off its charging station, while other beep patterns may point to issues like sensor signals or low battery voltage. Safety sensors, including those on the swivel seat and footrest, should be checked for proper alignment and operation.
Grease or other lubricants ARE NOT used on this drive system. The lift should be inspected annually by a stairlift company. The lift and rail also should be kept clean and free of dust.
