For hydraulic lift platform, the most important thing is the hydraulic system. As the weather gets colder, the hydraulic oil will also change and may become more and more viscous. Hydraulic lift relies on hydraulic system to complete lifting. If the hydraulic oil is too viscous, the oil in and out will inevitably not be so smooth, or even blocked, and the lift motor has a heavy load, which affects work efficiency. Therefore, when using hydraulic lifts in winter, the most important thing is to replace suitable hydraulic oil. For lifts in winter, we have to choose low-condensing hydraulic oil, which can adapt to the low temperature outdoors without affecting the normal operation of the entire system.
The rain and snow in winter will not come and go as fast as summer. A snow may not melt for several days. Some hydraulic lifts placed outdoors are more prone to water ingress. What should we do if this happens?
First of all, mobile hydraulic lifts cause water to enter when working outdoors, so the power supply should be cut off immediately, the equipment should be transferred to a dry environment as soon as possible, and outdoor high-altitude operations should be avoided in rain or snow. In order to avoid secondary dampness, the power unit, distribution box and travel switch on the lift should be dried as soon as possible, and protected to prevent the accumulation of water on the platform from falling onto it. Clean up the snow and water on the work surface in time to prevent moisture. In order to avoid electric leakage, when carrying out outdoor high-altitude operations, it is necessary to check
