Why Lifting Equipment Maintenance Matters

FOLLOWING LOLER HEALTH & SAFETY REGULATIONS

When a pallet truck shows signs of wear, it can be tempting to keep using it as long as it hasn’t completely broken down. However, this decision can quickly escalate into a serious safety hazard. Faulty hydraulic systems, worn-out wheels, and unstable lifting mechanisms significantly increase the risk of accidents, including:

Load Slippage – Unstable loads due to faulty lifting mechanisms.
Operator Injuries – Strained backs and muscle injuries from manual handling failures.
Collisions & Workplace Hazards – Malfunctioning brakes or unresponsive controls.

Keeping up regular servicing ensures that your equipment is operating safely, reducing the risk of injury to employees and protecting your business from liability issues.

It also means compliance with PUWER & LOLER Safety Regulations

PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) mandates that all work equipment, including pallet trucks, is maintained in a safe, fully operational condition.

LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998) applies to high-lift and electric pallet trucks, ensuring that lifting equipment is regularly inspected and safe for use.

By servicing your pallet trucks regularly, you remain compliant with UK law and create a safer working environment for your employees.
