8. Maintenance Schedule and Daily Check List
All Hoyer products are designed for minimum maintenance, however some safety checks and procedures are required. A
schedule of DAILY tasks are detailed below.
Daily checks and a bi-annual service, inspection and test will ensure your lift is kept in optimum safe working condition. A
list of spare parts is available upon request.
NOTE: The LOAD TEST and CERTIFICATION should only be carried out by qualified personnel or an authorized
service dealer.
Daily Check List:
Joerns Healthcare strongly recommend the following checks are carried out on a daily basis and before using the lift.
•
ENSURE
the lift moves freely on its casters.
•
ENSURE
the spreader bar is free to rotate and swing. Check the spreader bar is firmly attached to the boom.
•
EXAMINE
the sling hooks on the spreader bar and side suspenders for excessive wear. If in doubt -
DO NOT
use.
•
ENSURE
the sling retaining disks on the spreader bar are fitted and function as intended.
•
ENSURE
the legs open and close correctly.
• Operate the hand control or the hydraulic unit to
CONFIRM
the boom raises and lowers satisfactorily.
•
CONFIRM
the lift is not sounding a low battery alarm when the hand control is operated (electric lifts only). If the
alarm sounds,
DO NOT
use and place the battery on charge immediately.
• On electric powered lifts
CHECK
the operation of the emergency stop button.
• On hydraulically operated lifts
CHECK
for hydraulic fluid leakage. Any leakage should be reported to a service
engineer immediately and the lift should not be used until it has been checked out.
• On lifts with detachable masts
MAKE SURE
the mast is fully engaged and the locking knob is fully tightened.
•
EXAMINE
slings for fraying or other damage.

all hardware and fasteners and ensure they are secure prior to use.
