8. Maintenance Schedule & Daily Check List
All Oxford products are designed for minimum maintenance, however some safety checks and
procedures are required. A schedule of DAILY tasks is detailed below. Daily checks and a six
monthly service, inspection and test will ensure a lift is kept in optimum safe working condition.
A list of spare parts is available upon request.
The LOAD TEST and certification should only be carried out by qualified personnel or an authorised
service agent / dealer.
DAILY CHECK LIST: Joerns Healthcare strongly recommends the following checks be carried
out on a daily basis and before using lift.
• MAKE sure the lift moves freely on its castors.
• MAKE sure the spreader bar is free to rotate and swing
• EXAMINE the spreader bar/cradle is firmly attached to the boom.
• EXAMINE the sling hooks/clips on the spreader bar/cradle and side suspenders for excessive
wear.
• MAKE sure the legs open and close correctly.
• OPERATE the hand control to confirm the boom raises and lowers satisfactorily.
• ON electric powered lifts check the operation of the emergency stop button.
• EXAMINE slings for fraying or other damage. DO NOT use any sling if damaged or if the
sling shows signs of wear.
• CONFIRM the lift is not giving a low battery alarm when the hand control is operated. If the
alarm sounds, DO NOT use, and place on charge immediately.
• CHECK fasteners for tightness and wear.
