How to Safely Install a Sinolift Electric Mini Scissor Lift Table

The sinolift electric mini scissor lift table is a versatile and safe handling solution for a wide range of applications. It allows workers to enter narrower confined spaces, and it helps them complete indoor aerial work more efficiently and safer than ladders or scaffolding. In addition, it is more flexible than a crane and has a much smaller footprint.

If you want to use gates or railings with your lift table, Sax Lift can help you find the correct type and provide advice for a safe installation. The gates and railings keep goods from falling off the lift table. An electrical safety lock, interlock, minimizes this risk of injury and damage by keeping all gates automatically locked. Bridging plates can also be programmed into the interlock system.

When loading a lift table with a manual pallet truck, forklift or other handling equipment it is important that there is free space around the table of at least 0.5 meters. This is to prevent a load from falling off the lift table and damaging or injuring personnel. If the lift table needs to be installed on a slope, the height of the ramp should match the vertical reach of the handling equipment.

For a lift table that can be moved while loaded, the lifting eyes that are delivered with it can be screwed into the corner holes on the top plate. The lift table can then be lifted and transported by a forklift or other lifting equipment. In order to transport a lift table while it is still loaded, the safety trip bar should be in the closed position.

In case of an accident the table should be lowered using an emergency stop button that can be located either on the control panel or on the edge of the lift table. The safety trip bar can also be triggered manually by the operator. An alternative is a steel mesh curtain that is fitted behind the safety trip bar or on the edge of the lift table. This will not only help prevent tools and other items from falling off the lift table, but it will also make it more difficult for someone to reach under the lift table when it is not in use.

An additional option for a lift table is the possibility to have it ATEX-rated. This makes it suitable for hazardous environments where there is a risk of an explosion. The ATEX-rated table will have an extra protection against sparks and can tolerate water sprays or light dust.

When a lift table is ATEX-rated, it is important to follow all the instructions for safe operation. These are found in the table’s operation manual. It is also advisable to use protective clothing and gloves when working on the table. All tables from Sax Lift are delivered with an operation and maintenance manual. This manual contains detailed instructions for all functions of the lift table. It is recommended that you keep the operation and maintenance manual in a place where it can be easily accessed.
