A LOLER inspection is a legal requirement involving the thorough examination of lifting equipment carried out by a competent person. The inspection helps identify defects that could affect the safe operation of your tail lift and provides the necessary examination report for your records.
The required interval for a LOLER inspection depends on factors like the equipment and how it is used. Generally, most tail lifts should undergo an inspection once every six months. It’s also advised that tail lifts are serviced at suitable intervals based on usage and the manufacturer’s recommendations. We can help you establish a schedule that works best for you while helping you be safe and compliant.
Our experienced engineers can inspect, service and repair tail lifts from several major manufacturers. Some of the tail lift brands we have worked on include Ratcliff Palfinger, Dhollandia, Anteo UK, Zepro, Bär Cargolift and Ricon.
