Hazard

The manufacturer has identified a potential weakness in a weld on the scissor lifts. They have provided a kit which should be fitted to the scissor lift. The manufacturer has issued instructions to avoid using the lift with a load exceeding 3.5 tonnes until the kit has been fitted. A product of identical design is now known to have failed with a loading of less than 3.5 tonnes. This product does not comply with the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008.

Remedy

All affected scissor lifts have had the manufacturer’s kit fitted or arrangements are in place to have this work done. End users are advised to stop using the scissor lift until the kit has been fitted.
