RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION
After assembling and installing the scissor lift table, and before using it for the first time, make a record describing
its appearance. Thoroughly photograph the lift table from multiple angles, including all welds and anchor points, and all
labeling applied to it. Describe where each label is located. Collect all photographs and writings into a file. Mark the file
appropriately to identify it. This record documents satisfactory condition. Compare the results of future inspections to
this record to determine if the lift table is in satisfactory condition. Do not use the lift table unless it is in satisfactory
condition. Purely cosmetic changes, like damaged paint or powder coat, do not constitute changes from satisfactory
condition. However, touchup paint should be applied to all affected areas as soon as damage occurs.
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.
The standard-model 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 75% of the rated capacity for end loading (either end), and 50% for
side loading (either side) (see diagram).
