What professional training is required for car lift operation?

The car lift is the most frequently used equipment for car maintenance and one of the indispensable equipment. It plays an important role in the auto repair shop. Therefore, in the process of operating the lift, we need to pay extra attention to some matters to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by improper operation. The regulations and safety requirements that must be followed in the operation of the car lift mainly include the following points:

Operator training: The car lift operator must undergo professional training and be familiar with the performance and operation techniques of each component. If you do not understand the car lift and operate it rashly, it may not only cause damage to the equipment and reduce the service life of the equipment, but also may have safety hazards.

Bad weather restrictions: When the wind speed at the top of the lift exceeds 20 meters/second (level 8 gale) and in bad weather, the lift shall not be started. The car lift cannot be operated in bad weather. In addition, the lift is not recommended for outdoor use. It is recommended to be installed in a warehouse. The lift is in a humid environment for a long time, which will affect the quality of the lift.

Daily inspection: Frequently observe whether there are obstacles on the cage running track, ensure that there is no water accumulation on the lift foundation, keep the cage clean, and ensure that the cage load does not exceed its rated load. It is recommended to check it once before operation every day to eliminate potential faults in time.

Safe operation: When the cage is running, it is strictly forbidden to open the door or extend hands and objects out of the cage. Before starting, remind all personnel to pay attention. If any abnormal situation is found during operation, the emergency stop button should be pressed immediately.

Equipment maintenance: Before going to work every day, it is necessary to observe whether the cable is detached from the cable protection frame. After get off work, the cage should be parked on the ground platform and the power supply should be cut off. If any abnormal situation occurs, it is necessary to notify the relevant maintenance personnel in time, and non-maintenance personnel are not allowed to move it at will.

No operation after drinking: It is strictly forbidden to operate the car lift after drinking.

Regular inspection and maintenance: Regular inspection, maintenance and fall test are carried out as required. For variable speed and speed regulating car lifts, check whether the fan is rotating and whether the resistance is heating normally before each start.

Operation procedures: Before use, the tools and debris that hinder the operation near the car lift should be removed, and the operating handle should be checked to see if it is normal. The operating mechanism is sensitive and effective, and the hydraulic system is not allowed to have creeping phenomenon.

Lifting point alignment: After the lifted vehicle enters, the lift support block should be adjusted and moved to align with the lifting point specified for the vehicle model.

Lifting safety: Personnel should leave the vehicle during lifting. When lifting to the required height, the safety lock pin must be inserted, and the work under the vehicle can be started only when it is safe and reliable.

Frequent lifting and lowering are prohibited: The car lift should not be raised and lowered frequently. When supporting the vehicle, the lifting should be stable and the lowering should be slow.

Lifting and lowering are prohibited during operation: It is strictly prohibited to lift and lower the lift when someone is working.

Fault reporting: If the operating mechanism is not working, the motor is not synchronized, the bracket is uneven, or the hydraulic part is leaking oil, it should be reported in time and the operation should not be carried out with the fault.

Keep the site clean: After the operation, the debris should be removed and the area around the lift should be cleaned to keep the site clean.

No heavy work should be done on the car lift: Except for maintenance and minor repairs, other tedious and heavy work should not be operated and repaired on the lift.

Compliance with these regulations and safety requirements is essential to ensure the safety of lift operation.
