Abstract:
Platform lifts are vehicle-mounted elevators installed in motor vehicles to aid wheelchair users and other persons of limited mobility to enter and exit vehicles. These platform lifts are installed by new vehicle manufacturers or alterers of motor vehicles, as well as modifiers of used motor vehicles. FMVSS No. 403 sets forth safety requirements for platform lifts on new motor vehicles that manufacturers and alterers must meet to prevent injuries and fatalities to passengers and bystanders during the operation of platform lifts. It also requires information about and instructions for the lift be placed in owner’s manuals, installation instructions, and labels placed on the lifts. FMVSS No. 404 requires new vehicles equipped with platform lifts to have the manufacturer information inserts in the owner’s manuals and lift operating instructions to be affixed to the vehicle near the lift controls. The information is collected when a new design occurs. The printing of inserts and labels occur as part of each manufacturer’s annualized production process. The information is used by platform lift installers to ensure lifts are installed correctly and by operators, both public and private, for awareness of operating capacity and maintenance requirements. The burden hours have changed from the estimates in the previous information collection request (ICR) because the hours for distribution of the information and labels has been considered in this collection adding 1,370 hours to the 192 burden hours in the previous ICR. The estimated printing costs have not changed from the previous ICR.
