Let the Mini Electric Scooter Carrier Handle the Loading

Skip the strain of lifting your mobility device into the vehicle. The WheelChair Carrier Model 117 Mini Electric Lift is a hitch-mounted powered lift for a compatible lightweight scooter, power chair, or folding wheelchair. Lower the platform to the ground, load the device, and raise it behind the vehicle while the interior cargo area remains available.

The Model 117 carries up to 150 lb on its 22-inch-wide x 37-inch-long usable platform. Two retractable ratchets are included for securement, and the unloaded platform folds upright behind the vehicle.

Why Choose the Compact Model 117?

The reason to choose the Model 117 is its focused size and capacity. When a lightweight mobility device fits its limits, this lift provides powered ground-level loading without using the vehicle's interior cargo space.

  • ✓Load at ground level: Roll the compatible device onto the lowered platform instead of lifting it to cargo-floor height.
  • ✓Raise and lower it with electric power: The key switch and motor switch box control the platform movement.
  • ✓Keep the vehicle interior available: The mobility device travels behind the vehicle rather than inside the cargo area.
  • ✓Secure the device with included tie-downs: The standard Part 415 ratchet set contains two retractable ratchets.
  • ✓Fold the empty platform upright: Powered operation moves the unloaded lift into its stowaway position.
  • ✓Made in the USA: The steel carrier has an e-coated and powder-coated finish.

Will the Model 117 Fit Your Mobility Device and Vehicle?

The Model 117 is for mobility-device users and caregivers who want powered loading for compatible lightweight equipment. Product fit depends on more than receiver size: device dimensions, total tongue weight, hitch-adapter height, and space behind the vehicle must all be checked.

The Model 117 Fits These Requirements:

  • Your scooter, power chair, or folding wheelchair weighs 150 lb or less and fits within the 22 x 37-inch usable platform.
  • Your vehicle has a properly rated Class II 1-1/4-inch or Class III 2-inch square hitch receiver.
  • Your vehicle and hitch can support the 88 lb lift, the mobility device, and every installed accessory.
  • The installation can position the bottom of the hitch adapter 8 to 16 inches above the ground, as shown in the owner's manual.

Important Fit Details

The mobility device must stay within the Model 117's weight and platform limits, and the complete loaded weight must remain within the vehicle and hitch ratings.

The optional Model 130 Swing Away cannot be opened while the mobility device is loaded. Receiver height and ground clearance also vary by installation, so the manufacturer's stated 24 inches of possible clearance is not guaranteed on every vehicle.

How Do You Load and Operate the Model 117?

The lift uses a key switch and motor toggle switch. Follow the loading sequence in the owner's manual, park on a flat, level surface, and keep people and objects clear of the platform while it is moving.

  1. Turn the key on and hold the motor switch down to lower the platform until it lies flat on the ground.
  2. Position the compatible scooter, power chair, or folding wheelchair on the platform.
  3. Remove the rider and all loose items, then secure the device with both retractable ratchets as shown in the owner's manual.
  4. Use the motor switch to raise the platform fully into its transport position.

The included 21-foot wire harness contains two 10-gauge wires and a 30 amp automatic resettable circuit breaker. It connects directly to the vehicle battery and must be installed according to the manufacturer's instructions. A manual hand crank provides a backup if electrical power is unavailable, but it must be removed before the motor switch is used.

Questions Shoppers Ask About the Model 117

How do I know whether my scooter or power chair will fit?

Check the device's transport weight and measure its footprint at the widest and longest points. After the rider and all loose items are removed, the device must weigh no more than 150 lb and fit fully within the 22 x 37-inch usable platform.

Can I use the Model 117 with any Class II or Class III hitch?

No. The receiver size must match, but its tongue weight rating also matters. Confirm that the hitch and vehicle can support the 88 lb carrier plus the mobility device and any accessories. The optional Model 130 Swing Away adds another 35 lb.

Is the vehicle hitch included with the Model 117?

No. The vehicle must already have, or be fitted with, a properly rated Class II 1-1/4-inch or Class III 2-inch square hitch receiver.

Can I open the Model 130 Swing Away while the device is loaded?

No. Remove the mobility device before opening the optional Model 130 Swing Away.

How much room does the lift take up when folded?

The unloaded platform folds upright. The lift extends approximately 10.5 to 13.5 inches from the hitch in its stowaway position, or approximately 15 to 18 inches with the optional Model 130 Swing Away. Actual vehicle clearance still depends on the installation.

Does the lift require installation and wiring?

Yes. The lift mounts to the hitch and connects to the vehicle's electrical system. Review the owner's manual and confirm the installation requirements for your vehicle before ordering.
