Secure people and the load

Identify equipment separately
The tail-lift or hydraulic equipment may have a different manufacturer from the vehicle. A clear data-plate photo helps source parts and documentation.

Frequently asked questions
Can a loaded tail lift be repaired on site?
The provider must first make the load and platform safe. Additional lifting or handling equipment may be needed.
Do providers issue LOLER reports?
Only providers offering the relevant competent examination service should do so. A repair visit is not automatically a thorough examination.
