Operation Notes and Details
Preventive Maintenance:
WARNING
Maintenance is necessary to ensure safe and troublefree lift operation. General preven- tive lift maintenance consisting of careful inspections of the lift system and cleaning the lift should be a part of your transit agency's daily lift service pro- gram. Simple inspections can detect potential lift operational problems.
Keeping the lift platform and housing area clean is one of the most effective preventive maintenance practices to exer- cise. Dirt, mud, snow, ice and other debris entering the hous- ing could result in potential lift problems.
Regular preventive maintenance will reduce potential lift operation downtime and increase the ser- vice life of the lift, as well as pos- sibly detecting potential hazards. Exposure to harsh weather ele- ments, environmental conditions, or heavy usage may require more frequent maintenance and lubrication procedures.
Preventive maintenance vi- sual inspections do not take the place of the procedures specified in the Maintenance and Lubrica- tion Schedule provided on pages
Maintenance and lubrication procedures must be performed by authorized service personnel as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may result in serious bodily injury
and/or property damage.
