EMERGENCY OPERATION:

If the lift becomes inoperative in the raised position, it is best to wait until the

electrical power is restored before lowering the vehicle. However, if it’s critical to

safety that the lift be lowered, the following steps should be taken.

NOTE: Safely performing this process requires 3 people. All personnel

should stay clear of the path of the lift. All tools and other non-secured

items should be removed from the surface of the runways.

1) Survey the area surrounding the lift; remove any items and personnel from

area before proceeding with this procedure.

2) Perform the appropriate lockout/tag out procedure on the electrical

energy.

3) Use a second person standing at a safe distance away from the lift to

keep watch on the area, lift, vehicle and other personnel throughout the

process. This person should signal the person performing the procedure

to stop if necessary.

4) Use a caution tape or similar to barrier the area around the lift to avoid

personnel from accidently entering the area while this process is being

performed.

5) Do not proceed with this procedure if you are unfamiliar with the lift or its

function.

IF THE MECHANICAL LOCKS ARE NOT ENGAGED:

1) Pull safety release lever simultaneously pressing the descent lever on the

power pack.

2) Keep a close eye on the movement of the lift and the position of the

vehicle; release descent lever if any abnormal movement is detected.

3) Continue until the lift is fully lowered.

4) Once power is restored follow the lockout/tag out procedure to return the

lift back into service.

IF THE MECHANICAL LOCKS ARE ENGAGED:

Various methods can be used to raise the lift in order to get sufficient clearance

to disengage the mechanical locks. The safest method would employ temporary

electrical power to the lift using a portable power generator. Any electrical

connections should be done by a licensed electrician; lockout/tag out procedures

should also be employed at this time.

This process should only be performed by a trained professional. Contact

customer service or a local service professional for further assistance.
