The Out-Sider III is simple to operate. Just turn the key and move the control lever to the position marked ARROW UP or ARROW DOWN. The unit automatically lifts and lowers the scooter, as well as raising and lowering the hold-tite lock-down mechanism. The Out-Sider III can raise and store 3 or 4 wheel scooters weighing up to 300 lbs., using a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. The Out-Sider III system is fully automatic and is superior to any other rear exterior lift. The unit is power coated and assembled with stainless steel fasteners for long life. In addition to these features, a special weight sensing device applies exactly the right amount of pressure to the hold-tite device to secure the scooter. Bruno's Out-sider III features an ON-Off key for greater security, and an automatic emergency safty latch prevents the platform from lowering. As a result, the Out-Sider III gives you an easy to use, secure way to transport your scooter. The Out-sider III is powered by your vehicle's battery and is delivered fully equipped, including a lighted license plate holder, reflectors and a D.O.T approved center brake light for added safty. The Out-Sider III is only one of 18 different wheelchair and scooter lifts available from Bruno. All Bruno lifts qualify as adaptive equipment and are eligible for reimbursement under the terms of the Mobility Programs offered by GM, Saturn, ford and Chrysler.
