The platform side plate of the affected wheelchair lifts may crack. Additionally, the lifts are equipped with folding link arms that may have pivot holes that are too big, allowing the bearings to move out of position.
What to do
Ricon will notify the purchasers of the lifts, and their dealers will inspect the side plates for damage and for displaced bearings. The platform will be inspected for cracks. Any damaged parts will be replaced, free of charge. The recall began on April 18, 2016. Owners may contact Ricon customer service at 1-800-322-2884.
