OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Consult ANSI standard MH29.1, Section 12 for the owner’s/user’s responsibilities regarding the operation, care, and
maintenance of this machine.
The user shall ensure that operators understand that safe operation is the operator’s responsibility. The user shall
also ensure that operators are knowledgeable of, and observe, the safety rules and practices in this section.
This low-profile scissor lift table is suitable for use indoors in most non-classified industrial locations and many
commercial locations. It is intended to lift stable, evenly-distributed, nonhazardous materials loads having a size or
footprint approximately the same size as the platform.
The drawing identifies the major components of your scissors lift table.
Loading the platform.
The load rating, in pounds, is shown on the machine data plate located on the hinged end of the platform. This
indicates the net capacity of the scissor lift table for a static load, centered and evenly distributed on the platform. For
off-center loads, the lift table’s maximum capacity is 50% of the rated capacity for end loading (either end), and 25% for
side loading (either side) (see diagram).
DO NOT exceed the lift table’s load ratings. Injury to personnel or permanent damage to the lift
table can result from exceeding the listed capacity. Note: Take into account the weight of any
equipment added to the platform by third parties when determining the maximum working load to
be placed on the platform.
The platform rollers are not captured. DO NOT overhang any load over the side of the platform. A
cantilevered or overhanging load at the hinged end can cause the platform to tilt and dump the
load. For applications involving side or end edge loading, consult the factory.
This lift table is not approved for lifting personnel.
