Lift cutting off

I have a Issue with a 50FCTT 188, when you leave the lift running, and get off of the seat for more than just a minute the lift cuts off and the Battery light comes on.

To make the lift come back on again you have to turn the lift off and back on again.

Is this a setting on the EV100 that can be changed?

Also on this same lift the brakes are very grabby, is there a way to easily fix this, as when you brake they lock up and the brake light comes on and the truck beeps at you due to the lock up.

As for the lift problem, check the distribution panel. We've seen some strange things happen when the neg starts to burn on the back of the board.
As for the brakes, not sure of the age of the truck, but the early ones had a bulletin on the friction plates and resetting of the pressure. Does this one have the auto park brake feature?

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
