Common Lift Issues and Solutions
Troubleshooting Common Problems
Experiencing issues with your wheelchair lift can be frustrating, but many common problems can be easily troubleshooted. If your lift is not operating, first check the power supply and ensure the emergency stop button has not been activated. Often, lifts may stop working due to obstructions on the platform or in the lift shaft, so it’s wise to inspect these areas carefully. Passenger lifts, for example, often face issues like higher maintenance costs, space requirements, and problems with automated features such as sliding doors. If the lift is moving slowly or making unusual noises, it could be due to a lack of lubrication or wear and tear on moving parts. In such cases, refer to the manufacturer’s manual for guidance on basic maintenance, or contact a professional for more complex issues. At Base Lift Services, our engineers are always ready to assist you with troubleshooting and to provide expert repairs when needed. Trust us to help you keep your lift running smoothly and efficiently.
Preventative Maintenance Tips
Regular maintenance is key to ensuring the longevity and reliability of your wheelchair lift. One of the simplest yet most effective preventative measures is to keep the lift clean. Ensuring easy and safe wheelchair access is crucial, and regular maintenance plays a significant role in maintaining accessibility. Regularly remove any debris or dust from the platform and lift shaft. Lubricate moving parts according to the manufacturer’s recommendations to reduce friction and prevent wear and tear. Routinely check for any loose or worn components and replace them promptly to avoid more significant issues down the line. It’s also crucial to test the lift’s emergency features regularly to ensure they are functioning correctly. By incorporating these preventative maintenance tips into your routine, you can minimise the risk of unexpected breakdowns and extend the lifespan of your equipment. For more comprehensive maintenance, consider scheduling regular inspections with Base Lift Services to keep your lift in optimal condition.
When to Call a Professional
While some minor lift issues can be resolved with basic troubleshooting, certain situations require the expertise of a professional. If you notice persistent mechanical noises, unusual movements, or repeated error codes, it’s time to call in an expert. Electrical issues, such as frequent power failures or erratic operation, also necessitate professional intervention. Additionally, if the lift has been involved in an incident or shows signs of structural damage, immediate professional assessment is crucial for safety. Attempting to fix complex problems without proper training can lead to further damage or hazards. At Base Lift Services, our highly qualified engineers are equipped to handle a wide range of lift issues, ensuring a thorough and safe repair. When in doubt, it’s always best to consult with a professional to maintain the integrity and safety of your wheelchair lift.
