ANSI standards state that all automotive lifts be inspected by a qualified inspector at least annually. All inspections are to be documented and proper records kept current and on file. A service and repair history should be kept accurately documenting all inspections, repairs and any routine maintenance that has been performed.

ANSI Standards also state that all operators of automotive lifts be properly trained and said training to be properly documented. The Department of Occupational Safety and Health can impose stiff fines for willful violators of this ANSI standard. The guidance offered in this standard is routinely recommended by the occupational safety and health administration under the General Duty Clause [Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970] and (US Code of Federal Regulations Title 29, Section 1910 and applicable subparts)

We suggest you contact one of our professional Service Centers to have these very important and required annual inspections completed. Many of the companies listed have already completed the Automotive Lift Institute’s Lift Inspectors Training Certification program, while many others are currently enrolled in the program and are working their way to completion. Our desire is for every company within our network to be certified by the Automotive Lift Institute by the end of 2015.
