Your Coach or Motorhome is designed for your safety, relaxation and enjoyment. Your mobility equipment should be designed with the same principle in mind. The last things you want are high cost and spending your time fighting your equipment. The #129 Basement Motorhome lift is the safest (per NHTSA studies) and most unobtrusive lift you can own. It is designed for Motor Coaches or mobile homes with a ground to floor height greater than 34 inches, and a door opening of at least 3" wider than the wheelchair. Only 9 inches of mounting space is required on the inside wall by the door for the body of the lift. (If ground to floor is less that 34 inches see #124 Motorhome lift).

One of the biggest drawbacks to platform Motorhome lifts, is that they require a costly separate entrance taking up valuable floor space. With platform style lifts even if they use the existing doorway the platform is always in the way, blocking the windows and other people from getting in and out. With the Superarm Lift series, no doorways are blocked, no platform is used and less parking space is needed because, you don't require space to fold out a platform and then have room to wheel off the end. It sets you down right beside the Motorhome. The Superarm series of lifts are also the quietest lifts made. The installation of this lift is easy and fast. A qualified installer can install it in approximately four to six hours. The lift is powered by the Motorhome's electrical system, so no extra battery is needed. It has a low amp ½ hp motor that drives the gears, which allows the arm to pivot in and out of the vehicle. It also has a linear actuator that controls the elevation of the lift unit. This allows for the additional height clearance needed for your chair to land on the floor of the vehicle. Each lift comes with 1-inch wide mountain climber type webbing straps. The straps are inconspicuous and comfortable. This webbing material has been tested at over 1700 lbs. You are fully secured while loading and unloading. (Lift capacity 600 lbs.) The switches for the operation of #129 Basement Motorhome Lift are located on a hand held pedant with switches attached to the lift via a cord. The cord length is sufficient so that the user can easily load and unload themselves, or an attendant can operate the switch pendant. There are two toggle switches on this pendant. One is to operate to operate the in out function of the arm, the second switch controls the elevation of the lift unit. Many users feel that the Superarm lift has completely revolutionized the way they approach mobility and their vehicle.
