The KCI Manual Wheelchair Lift utilizes a foot pump actuated lift mechanism to raise the lift and a hand release to lower it. Simply load the wheelchair into the lift, raise to the height of the belt loader and transfer the wheelchair into the aircraft baggage compartment. The fold down bridge allows for the wheelchair to be easily transferred to the belt loader and the steel frame with foam filled wheels make this wheelchair lift both sturdy and easily maneuverable. The manual Wheelchair Lift has a lift capacity of 800 lbs.
