How to Charge a Scissor Lift

Numerous individuals appreciate the ease of using a scissor lift. The ease of working and the security offered from the lift's basket offer much more piece of mind than trying to perform a similar task working off the rung of a ladder. The safety risks involved with this particular machine make it the best alternative for completing tasks from heights.



The majority of scissor lifts are operated by batteries which are internally mounted in the lift's base. These batteries need to be charged following a long shift or due to sitting after extended periods without use. It is a simple task to charge the batteries. This could be carried out without any specialized tools or equipment and needs no heavy labor.



The equipment has to be positioned next to an electrical output in order to prepare the scissor lift for charging. This charging place must also be in a well-ventilated area. After that, in order to prevent another operator from driving away with the lift plugged in, press the emergency shut-off switch. The emergency shut off switch is the big red button situated near the charger or the control box, in the basket of the lift. Find the battery charger on the base of the lift on the right side. Often, models that are older will have the charger mounted on the rear of the lift.



The AC extension cord should next be plugged into the charger. Be certain to charge in a well ventilated place and plug the cord into an electrical outlet. So as to prevent accidental damage from being run over, the length of the electrical cord on the battery charger is intentionally short. This is because if any extra length were to drop out of the battery charger storage place when in use, extreme danger can potentially happen.
