PREFACE
OVERVIEW OF INSTALLATION
Installation of the ELECTRA-RIDE II Stairway Elevator con-
sists of the following:
* Determine whether the elevator should be a left or right
side installation. "Left" or "right" installation is deter-
mined by the side of the stairway on which the rail is
installed (viewed from the bottom of the stairs). THE
GEAR RACK WILL BE TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE
STAIRS. (See figure 14) Unless specified otherwise Bruno
Stairway Elevators are set up for left side installation as
shipped, but can easily be converted to right side installa-
tion (instructions included in this manual).
* Identify and locate lower Rail section and bumper
bracket assembly.
* Assemble and tighten the Rail Joint. CAUTION: RAILS
CANNOT BE MIXED. CHECK ID NUMBERS STAMPED
AT ENDS OF RAILS.
* Determine the correct length for the Rail (using step 2 &
4 from APPLICATION GUIDE information), and cut the
Rail.
* Install lower bumper assembly.
* Position rail on left or right side of stairway using rail clamp
assemblies.
* Install the Call/Send Antenna.
* Manually mount the carriage on the upper rail.
* Adjust the carriage angle by loosening the four Angle
Adjustment Bolts.
* Install seat assembly and make electrical connections.
* Secure the footrest.
* When installing a right side ELECTRA-RIDE II the
reversing operation must be followed.
* Remove one motor cover (right side installation only)
Reverse the motor leads and flip the two switches to re-
verse the direction of the elevator.

ASSEMBLY
FIGURE 1
FITTING THE RAIL
[ ] Determine whether the elevator should be a left or right
side installation. "Left" or "right" installation is determined
by the side of the stairway on which the rail is installed
(viewed from the bottom of the stairs). Unless specified
otherwise Bruno Stairway Elevators are set up for left side
installation as shipped, and can easily be converted to right side
installation (instructions included in this manual on page 15).
[ ] Identify and locate lower rail section for the left or right
installation.
BUMPER BRACKET INSTALLATION
[ ] Assemble lower rail, install Bumper Bracket.
[ ] Determine the correct length for the Rail by measuring
along a straight line placed on the stairs. (SEE STEP 2 IN
THE APPLICATION GUIDE) Add to that amount
measurement B (STEP 4 IN THE APPLICATION GUIDE). This
process will allow you to custom fit the elevator to your
customer taking into consideration the most comfortable
seat to floor height within the space available at the top of
the stairs.
NOTE: THE RAIL MUST REST APPROXIMATELY 1/2" TO 1" ABOVE
NOSING OF THE STEPS AND EXTEND FROM THE LOWER
FLOOR TO A POINT BEYOND THE NOSING OF THE TOP STEP
(SEE APPLICATION GUIDE STEP 4). IN SOME CASES WHERE
THE BOTTOM LANDING IS MADE OF MATERIAL SUCH AS
(CONCRETE, CERAMIC TILE OR SLATE) THE LAST BRACKET ON
THE LANDING MAY BE OMITTED WITH A BRACKET ADDED ON
THE SECOND STEP FROM THE BOTTOM AND TOP OF STAIR-
WAY.

INSTALLATION
CUTTING THE RAIL
[ ] Use a metal-cutting power-saw or manual hacksaw to cut
the rail to length. Cut off the end of the rail which will be located at
the top of the stairway.
[ ] Use a file or other appropriate tool to de-burr the cut end of
the rail. Soften any sharp edges which might abrade the
insulation from wiring which must be routed to the bumper at the
end of the rail.
[ ] Use a C-clamp to hold the upper Bumper Bracket in place in
the cut end of the rail and use the holes in the Bumper Bracket
as guides to drill mounting holes using “O” size (8.03 MM/.316")
drill bit in the rail.
[ ] Assemble the Rail joint by attaching the Bottom Plate to
Rail with M6 X 20 Flat Head Screws, external-tooth Lock
washers and M6 Hex Nuts. Install the M10 Bolts, M10 internal
tooth Washer and M10 hex nut through the Joint Blocks on both
sides of the Rail. Tighten all bolts securely and make sure screw
heads are flush with the surface of the inside of the Rail.
NOTE:
THE CHAMFERED EDGES OF THE
HOLES MUST FACE "UP" TOWARD
THE BOTTOM OF THE RAIL.

[ ] Install rail mounting foot clamps in the placement pattern
as follows: (leaving a minimum of 1/2" from the wall.)
(See figure 5)
*BOTTOM OF RAIL
*FIRST STEP UP FROM BOTTOM OF RAIL
*TOP STEP OR LANDING
*EVERY OTHER STEP BETWEEN TOP AND BOTTOM
*EXCEPT ONE ON STEPS EACH SIDE OF RAIL JOINT
NOTE: IF TOP OR BOTTOM CLAMP IS OMITTED BECAUSE THE
LANDING IS CEMENT OR CERAMIC TILE OR ANOTHER SUB-
STANCE THAT THE OWNER DOESN'T WANT HOLES IN, A SET
OF CLAMPS SHOULD BE ADDED ON THE SECOND LAST STEP
AND AT THE TOP OF STAIRWAY.
[ ] For ease of installation, finger tighten all clamps to rail.
The clamp assembly should be positioned so the nut is
closest to the wall. (See figure 4 & 5)
[ ] Slide top and bottom clamps down until firmly seated on
step. When installing on carpeted stairs a rubber mallet
should be used on clamps to compress carpet and cushion
before anchoring to steps.
[ ] Install securely one screw near the wall on top and bottom
of foot of clamp assemblies. This will enable the installer
to change position of the rail if necessary and prevent
drilling excess holes.

[ ] Make the connections to the Charger Wiring Harness.
[ ] Route the Charger Wiring Harness along the back side
of the Rail and secure it to the Rail Mounting Clamps
with wire ties. Be sure that this wiring is mounted
securely so that it is not vulnerable to physical damage.
[ ] Coil any excess harness wire and attach to a Rail Clamp
(under the rail).
NOTE: THE CHARGER SHOULD BE PLUGGED INTO A
HOUSEHOLD OUTLET ALL OF THE TIME. THE ELEVATOR IS
DESIGNED SO THAT THE BATTERIES WILL BE CHARGED
WHEN THE CARRIAGE IS AT ONE OR THE OTHER END OF
THE RAIL. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE CARRIAGE BE
"PARKED" AT THE END OF THE RAIL WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE
TO MAINTAIN FULL BATTERY CHARGE.
IN AN INSTALLATION WHERE THE CARRIAGE CAN NOT BE
PARKED AT THE END OF THE RAIL (STAIRWAYS WITH A
DOOR AT THE TOP, FOR EXAMPLE), THE CARRIAGE
SHOULD BE RUN TO THE OTHER END OF THE RAIL WITH
THE REMOTE CALL/SEND MODULE WHEN NOT IN USE.
THIS WILL ENSURE THAT THE BATTERIES WILL REMAIN
FULLY CHARGED.

SPEED ADJUSTMENT
A provision for adjusting speed is one of the unique features of the
SRE-1550 Stairway Elevator. The Speed Adjustment
Potentiometer is located on the top of the Carriage and can be
adjusted by following this procedure:
[ ] Loosen the Collet Nut on the Speed Control Potentiom-
eter approximately one-half turn.
[ ] Turn the Potentiometer all the way counterclockwise this is
the starting point. Turn the Potentiometer clockwise
aligning the slotted shaft with the weight range of the user.
[ ] The speed may be adjusted by turning the slotted shaft on
the Potentiometer (clockwise = faster, counterclockwise =
slower). With the customer on the unit make several test
runs to arrive at the most to appropriate speed setting.
[ ] When the speed has been set satisfactorily, retighten the
collet nut. (Recheck speed)

A Circuit Breaker is built into the on/off switch and is provided to
protect the Battery / Controller / Motor circuits in the Elevator
Carriage. It is unlikely that this Circuit Breaker will ever “trip” in
normal use, but if the Elevator should fail to operate, check the
Circuit Breaker and reset it if necessary. If the Circuit Breaker
should trip, determine the cause and correct the situation.
The most likely cause of a tripped Circuit Breaker would be a
foreign object jamming the Rail or Gear Rack or overloading the
elevator by exceeding its rated load capacity.
A Fuse has been provided to protect the Battery Charging circuit
and the Call / Send electronics. The Elevator is shipped with this
Fuse installed.
[ ] Turn “OFF” the unit using the “ON” / “OFF” switch on the back
of the unit.
[ ] Disconnect the Battery Charger from the Rail Charge
Lead.
[ ] Remove carriage cover.
[ ] Determine and repair any short circuit which may have
caused the fuse to blow.

FUSE REPLACEMENT
[ ] Use a fuse puller to remove the "old" fuse from PC Board
Spring Clips (be careful to avoid breaking the glass).
[ ] Replace the fuse using only a 5 ampere AGC or SFE
type fuse. (See figure 13 on page 15)
[ ] Turn the Power Switch to "ON".
[ ] Replace the Carriage Cover.
[ ] Reconnect the Battery Charger Leads.
[ ] Test the unit for proper operation.
WHEN THE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE, TEST THE UNIT
FOR CORRECT OPERATION OF CALL/SEND, `ON/OFF'
SWITCH, FOOTREST, SAFETY SWITCHES, CARRIAGE LIMIT
SWITCHES AND SEAT SAFETY SWITCH.
TRAIN THE CUSTOMER TO USE THE STAIRWAY ELEVATOR
CORRECTLY AND SAFELY. BE SURE TO HAVE THEM OP-
ERATE THE UNIT WHILE YOU ARE THERE TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS.
BATTERY CHARGER SEQUENCE IS AS FOLLOWS:
RED LED `ON' = AC Power on (power cord plugged in)
YELLOW CONTINUOUS LED = Batteries charging
FLASHING YELLOW LED = Batteries are 80% charged
GREEN CONTINUOUS LED = Batteries in “charge completing”
mode (or float / standby condition)
If the charger is subject to a power line surge, the AC input fuse
may `BLOW' This fuse is located beneath the power cord from the
wall outlet to prevent shock hazard, to replace fuse:
1) Remove Power Cord from wall outlet and charger socket.
2) Pull out on the fuse access panel.
3) Remove fuse.
4) Replace with the same size and type: (BUSS # GMC 4) 5 x
20mm-4AMP/125V-TIME LAG
*NOTE:
IF A THE GREEN
LIGHT IS FLASHING
ON THE CHARGER IT
IS DUE A PROBLEM
WITH THE BATTERY.
IF THE BATTERY
HAS NOT REACHED
THE END OF THE
FIRST STAGE OF
THE OPERATION
WITHIN 18 HOURS,
THE CHARGER MAY
DETERMINE THAT A
PROBLEM EXISTS
WITHIN THE BAT-
TERY OR THE BAT-
TERY IS TOO BIG

TURNING THE UNIT ON
VACATION / LONG TERM STORAGE
If the elevator will not be in use for and extended period of time the
unit should be moved 2"-3" away from the lower Charge contacts
and the red circuit breaker should be turned off. After the elevator
is in this position, the charger should be unplugged from the wall
outlet.
DO NOT unplug the charger from the wall outlet unless the circuit
breaker has been turned off. This will result in battery discharge or
premature battery failure.
[ ] To turn the unit back on , turn the circuit breaker on, plug the
charger back into the wall outlet.
NOTE: The batteries may need to be recharged before
normal use if the elevator was in the `off ' position for an
extended period of time. To do so , simply move the unit to
the LOWER charge contacts, and re-connect the charger to
the wall outlet (circuit breaker `on').

OVER SPEED ADJUSTMENT FOR COMMERCIAL UNITS
[ ] Before installing the carriage the overspeed cam must be
adjusted to line up with the overspeed housing.
[ ] Looking at the end of the carriage, line the white mark on the
cam with the white mark on the over speed housing.
[ ] Slide carriage on rail making sure not to move the aline-
ment.
[ ] If the overspeed should be tripped while servicing or
installing. The cam may be reset by rotating the cam back to its
detent position. By bypassing the overspeed switch and
running the drive unit up, the cam can be rotated in by hand.
[ ] Should a failure occur which would activate the overspeed,
the complete drive unit will have to be removed from the rail
and returned to the dealer or the manufacture to determine
the reason for the failure. Repairs would then have to be
completed before unit could be used again.
[ ] Install call/send lock boxes as shown below. The key
switch should be approximately 42" from floor. One box
should be installed at the top of the stairs and one at the
bottom.
