I. INTRODUCTION
he RICON RDO2700 Series Power Swing Door Operators open and close swing-type van
doors. They are designed to operate in most full size vans, and can provide up to 90° of mo-
tion for each door. The operators have adjustable linkage that provides exact positioning of each
open door. Further adjustment is available at the heavy, splined connection between the operator
and its linkage arm. The door operators are installed on the vehicle floor, adjacent to the door
hinges.
The power door operators work with
Ricon wheelchair lifts and ramps. As
the lift or ramp is activated to DEPLOY,
or extend from the vehicle, the power
door operators automatically open the
vehicle doors. After the lift or ramp has
been used and is activated to STOW
and retract into the vehicle, the door
operators automatically close the vehi-
cle doors. The power door operators
are installed onto two doors but for
safety reasons only one door is al-
lowed to operate at a time.
This manual contains operating and maintenance instructions for the power door operator. For
installation instructions please refer to the service manual. It is important to user safety that the
installation is thorough and correct. It is equally important that the Ricon sales/service staff be
completely familiar with the Operating Instructions chapter of this manual to demonstrate and
explain the proper use of the product to the user. Once the operators are installed, it is very im-
portant that it be properly maintained by following the Ricon recommended cleaning, lubrication,
and inspection instructions.
