Maintenance
Proper and regular maintenance will extend the life of your Lift and reduce downtime due to
component failures.
⚠ DANGER Before performing any maintenance on your Lift, make sure it is completely
disconnected from power. Do not reconnect it until all maintenance procedures are
finished. The Lift uses electrical energy; if your organization has Lockout/Tagout
policies, make sure to implement them before performing any maintenance. If you
come into contact with high voltage/current, you could be injured or killed.
⚠ DANGER Verify the Lift is resting on a Safety Lock or on the ground before performing any
maintenance. Do not work on the Lift if the Safety Locks are not engaged, you
could be injured or killed.
If you need to replace worn, damaged, or broken parts, you must use parts from (or approved by) the
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or parts that meet the OEM’s specifications.
⚠ WARNING If you use parts not from, approved by, or meeting the specifications of the original
equipment manufacturer, you void your warranty and compromise the safety of
everyone who installs or uses the Lift.
