8. Maintenance Schedule
All Hoyer products are designed for minimum maintenance, however some safety checks and
procedures are required. A schedule of DAILY tasks is detailed below. A list of replacement parts
is available upon request.
DAILY CHECK LIST
Joerns Healthcare strongly recommends the following checks be carried out on a daily basis and
before using lift.
- MAKE sure the lift moves freely on its casters.
- MAKE sure the spreader bar is free to rotate and swing. Check the spreader bar is firmly
attached to the boom.
- ENSURE the mast is fully engaged into the mast slot and the mast locking device is securely
tightened.
- EXAMINE the sling hooks on the spreader bar and side suspenders for excessive wear. If in
doubt - do not use.
- EXAMINE slings for fraying or other damage. DO NOT use any sling if damaged or if the sling
shows signs of wear.
- MAKE sure the legs open and close correctly.
- OPERATE the hand control or the hydraulic unit to confirm the boom raises and lowers
satisfactorily.
- CONFIRM the lift is not giving a low battery alarm when the hand control is operated. If the
alarm sounds DO NOT use and place on charge immediately.
- ON electric powered lifts check the operation of the emergency stop button.
- ON hydraulically operated lifts check for hydraulic fluid leakage. Any leakage should
be reported to a service engineer immediately and the lift should not be used until it
has been repaired.

Joerns Healthcare recommends a thorough inspection and test of the Hoyer Advance lift and lifting
accessories; slings, etc. are carried out on a regular basis. Inspection frequency varies depending on
locality, so you must check with your dealer or local government agency as appropriate regarding

Healthcare recommends maintenance, inspection and certified testing is carried out by authorized
service agent / dealers only.
