DANGER

!

Do not work under lift, without Maintenance Device! To avoid
personal injury, NEVER go under the lift platform until the load
is removed and the scissors mechanism is securely blocked in
the open position and the appropriate OSHA lock-out/tag-out
procedure is followed. See "Lift Blocking Instructions" section.

DANGER !

If for any reason you are unable to lower the lift completely onto
the maintenance device(s), stop immediately and consult the
factory. Failure to properly use the factory approved
maintenance device(s) could result in severe injury or death.

5.

Once the maintenance device(s) is properly and securely engaged continue to
press the down button for an additional 5-10 seconds to relieve all pressure in
the system (it could take longer in a pneumatic system).

WARNING !

Failure to relieve the system operating pressure could result in
the sudden and unexpected release of high-pressure fluids
(or air) during maintenance and/or repair of the lift and result 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 steps 1-6 above, raise the lift off the
maintenance device and place the maintenance device back into the designated
storage position.

DANGER

!

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.
