Southworth Air Bag Lift Tables 9
WARNING !
Only authorized personnel should perform inspection or maintenance and service procedures.
Unauthorized personnel attempting these procedures do so at the risk of severe
injury or death.
Failure to properly adhere to lift blocking procedures is to risk the sudden and uncontrolled de-
scent of the lift during maintenance or inspection. A falling lift can cause severe injury or death.
This procedure describes the only factory-approved
method of working under a lift. Follow these instruc-
tions EVERY time you plan to reach or crawl beneath
the lift to perform service or maintenance – no matter
how momentary that might be.
If the factory-provided maintenance device is dam-
aged or missing, stop immediately and consult the
factory for assistance. The manufacturer is not liable
for your failure to use the approved maintenance
device(s) and procedures that have been provided.
1. Any load must be removed from the lift prior
to engaging the maintenance device(s). These
devices are designed to support an unloaded
lift only. Failure to remove the load from the lift
prior to blocking could cause the failure of the
maintenance device(s) and allow the lift to fall
unexpectedly. This can result in personal injury or death, or permanent damage to the maintenance
device(s) and/or the lift.
2. Raise the lift to its fully raised position. If you do not, the maintenance device(s) may not be able
to be placed properly in its/their designed blocking position.
3. Remove the maintenance device(s) from its/their storage location and place it/them into the
engaged position as shown in Figure 1. (Note: further information may be useful here to provide
additional instructions as to the location and method of storage and engaged positions).
4. Lower the lift until it makes complete contact with the maintenance device(s). Re-check to ensure
that all provided devices are fully and securely engaged. If the device(s) is/are not fully engaged
the lift could fall unexpectedly, resulting in permanent damage to the device(s) or the lift.
DANGER !
If for any reason you are unable to lower the lift completely onto the maintenance device(s), stop
immediately and consult the factory. Failure to properly use the factory approved maintenance
device(s) could result in severe injury or death.
5. Once the maintenance device(s) is/are properly and securely engaged, continue to press the down
valve for an additional 5-10 seconds to relieve all pressure in the operating system.
warning
Failure to relieve operating system pressure could result in the sudden and unexpected release
of air during maintenance and/or repair of the lift and may result in severe injury or death.
6. Follow OSHA lock-out/tag-out procedures. Disconnect and tag all power sources to prevent an un-
planned or unexpected actuation of the lift.
7. Once inspection or work is complete, reverse the performance of the steps above to raise the lift off
the maintenance device(s) and place the device(s) back into its/their designated storage position(s).
