Hoyer HPL450 Dual Battery, Care & Maintenance Guide

Hoyer HPL450 Dual Battery, Care & Maintenance Guide

The dual-battery design is one of the practical advantages of the HPL450. Proper care keeps the lift available for multiple transfers throughout the day.

Dual Battery Best Practices

  • Keep one pack charging while the other is in the lift when possible

  • Charge fully after use or when the indicator shows low power

  • Avoid repeated deep discharges

  • Use only the genuine off-board charger

Daily / Before-Use Checks

  • Confirm a charged battery is installed

  • Inspect sling attachment points and the 6-point cradle

  • Check casters for debris

  • Test the hand control and brakes

Ongoing Maintenance

Weekly / Monthly

  • Wipe down the frame, boom, and oversized push handle

  • Listen for unusual noises during lifting

  • Verify smooth base movement
