Human Error

Distracted while lowering the lift

2 Post lock line guide. The sheave had cut into this over a few months. Made it so the locks wouldn't open.

Concrete is the most important safety feature of a lift. If the anchors are installed incorrectly (Impact guns, wrong pour, ect..) then the lift will try and twist itself out of the ground. If your anchors can be moved at all you have a major problem!

Useful lift safety videos

A lift that hasnt had its cables adjusted, Cables on lifts dont carry weight they equalize a load. Keeping them in adjustment gives years of life to a lift.

Truck racked to far back, puts a ton of wear on the cylinders

Mechanics are human some days are good, some days we rack the vehicle horribly wrong. The above pictures are from a lift that the locks only opened on one side, the tech didn't watch it going down until he heard it.

When Concrete Goes Bad

Lift components wear out over many many years, without someone with knowledge of your lifts looking at them some of these wear points wont be seen until the parts themselves have failed.

Why inspections matter

GT Equipment & Services

Annual vehicle lift inspections conducted by a “qualified automotive lift inspector” are required by the ANSI National Standard covering vehicle lift operation, inspection, and maintenance (ANSI/ALI ALOIM: 2008) and are included by reference in regulations in the United States and Canada.
