Installation

Requires professional installation. A pit is not essential. Can be craned in or disassembled for retrofitting. Having its own shaft allows for easy installation into a building.

In NSW the owner or controller of the lift (if not the owner) is required to register their lift with WorkCover. They need to complete Form PL2 Application For Item Registration of Lift / Escalator and Moving Walkway. A fee of $65 is charged for a lift installed in a public place. The applicant must state that the plant has been inspected by a competent person and is safe to operate (use).

It is compulsory that the lift be inspected annually by a competant person. WorkCover requires payment for registration as well as an annual fee.

Request further details from the supplier or contact WorkCover Plant Registration Unit.

It is an offence to operate plant that is not correctly registered under the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation 2001.
