Bruno Curb-Sider Scooter & Powerchair Lift
The Bruno Curb-Sider is a fully powered, hoist-style vehicle lift designed to raise and stow compatible mobility scooters and powerchairs inside applicable vans, SUVs and CUVs, or in the bed of select pickup trucks. Multiple configurations support mobility devices weighing up to 450 lb (203 kg), depending on the vehicle, lift model and installation.
Up to 450 lb Capacity Available in 250, 400 and 450 lb (114, 181 and 203 kg) lifting capacities.
Fully Powered Operation A powered hoist lifts, rotates and stows the connected mobility device.
Space-Saving Design Vehicle-specific bases help preserve useful seating and cargo space when the device is not loaded.
3-Year Limited Warranty Backed by Bruno's three-year limited warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms.
Why Choose the Bruno Curb-Sider?
The Curb-Sider helps eliminate the need to manually lift a heavy scooter or powerchair into a vehicle. Stand near the rear bumper or curb, connect the model-specific docking device and use the hand-held control to lift and stow the unoccupied mobility device. Its hoist design can accommodate a wide range of scooters and powerchairs while keeping the installation compact.
Multiple capacities and vehicle-specific mounting bases allow the lift to be matched to many vans, SUVs, CUVs and pickup trucks. In most applicable passenger vehicles, partial third-row seating or cargo space can remain available when the mobility device is not present. Exact compatibility must be confirmed for the vehicle, mobility device, selected lift capacity and desired mounting position.

Usage and Safety Information
Use the Curb-Sider only to load and unload an unoccupied, compatible mobility device. Position the vehicle on a stable, level surface when possible, keep people and obstacles clear of the lifting path, connect the approved docking device correctly and operate the lift only as described in the Bruno owner's manual.
Professional selection and installation are required. Never exceed the selected lift's rated capacity; include the scooter or powerchair, batteries and attached accessories when confirming total weight. Inspect the docking hardware, mounting components, electrical connections and lift operation regularly, and arrange qualified service if damage, looseness or unusual operation is observed.
