8.2.2 Control measures
Maintenance chocks
A maintenance chock is incorporated into the base of the lift tables. This is flipped into the roller
path when maintenance is to be carried out. If applied, the chock will prevent the fall of the lift table
platform.
Flow controller
A flow controller is fitted to the lift table to prevent the sudden loss of oil from the cylinders. Instruct
operators not to adjust the flow controller whilst lowering the lift table.
8.3 Electrocution
The Lift Tables are 240V, 50Hz single phase or 415V, 50Hz three phase. If the electrical system is
damaged, there is the potential for electrical leakage.
8.3.1 Risk assessment
The risk of damage to the electrical system is generally low, although this would need to be assessed
in situ. An electric shock may lead to serious injury or death.
8.3.2 Control measures
Earth leakage protection
The Australian Standard AS1418.8 requires Lift Tables to be protected by earth leakage protection
(Clause 3.6.3 (n)). As earth leakage protection is usually effected at the power outlet, it has not been
incorporated into the Lift Table. Be sure that the outlet used is protected.
Qualified electrical labour
Should work be required on the electrical system of the Lift Table, ensure that a qualified electrician
is used.
Training
Operators should be trained to inspect cabling daily for damage. If any damage is found, the
machine should be turned off at the supply and repaired by a qualified electrician.
8.4 High pressure fluid
A person may come into contact with hydraulic fluid under pressure if a hydraulic component fails.
8.4.1 Risk assessment
The risk of such an injury is very slight, but puncture wounds could be sustained or serious injury
may occur if the fluid came into contact with the eyes.
8.4.2 Control measures
Regularly check the hydraulic system for leaks and/or damage. Do not exceed the load capacity of
the Lift Table.
8.5 Slipping, tripping and falling
A person may slip on the deck surface or trip on the plant while the Lift Table is lowered.
