Figure 6.2
The blocks must be securely placed inside the base frame and thus in the roller path of the lift (See
Figure 6.2).
4. Lower the lift platform, either the platform rests securely on the maintenance legs (inside the sockets
and over pegs), or until the leg rollers make contact with both maintenance blocks. Re-check to ensure
that both devices are fully and properly engaged with the leg rollers. If both left and right maintenance
locks are not fully engaged the lift could fall unexpectedly.
If for any reason you are unable to lower the lift completely onto the
maintenance devices, stop immediately and consult the factory. Failure to
properly use the factory approved maintenance devices could result in
severe injury or death.
5. Once the maintenance devices are properly and securely engaged, continue to press the down button,
valve or switch for an additional 5-10 seconds to relieve all pressure in the hydraulic system (it could
take longer in a pneumatic system).
Failure to relieve operating system pressure could result in the sudden
and unexpected release of high-pressure fluids (or air) during
maintenance and/or repair of the lift, resulting in severe injury or death.
6. Follow OSHA electrical lock-out/tag-out procedures. Disconnect and tag all electrical and/or other
power sources to prevent an unplanned or unexpected actuation of the lift.
7. Once inspection or work is complete, reverse the performance of the steps above to raise the lift off
the maintenance devices and place the devices back into their designated storage positions.
HIGH VOLTAGE!! – Disconnect and/or lock out the electrical supply to the
power unit per OSHA regulations prior to any installation or maintenance
being performed.
