Safety Information
Stable in Earthquakes
Your Aero-Lift was designed to meet the demanding
specifications of the California Uniform Building Code (UBC) with
regard to earthquake stability and safety. If added protection
is required or desired, your Aero-Lift can be fitted with the optional
Seismic Isolation System that creates the absolute safest and most
robust earthquake readiness configuration.
Safety Features
All of the structural elements of your Aero-Lift
are designed and manufactured to precision specifications and close
tolerances. The chain is rated to 20,000 lbs. The Aero-Lift has
been load tested to 125% of its rated capacity.
The Aero-Lift electric chain hoist is designed for
frequent use, features advanced hoist technology, easy serviceability
and industry-leading quality. The hoist incorporates a fail-safe
pull rotor brake which is electrically activated and requires no
adjustment. A built-in slip clutch protects the hoist against over-travel
and over-load damage. These two features work in conjunction to
provide absolute control and safety. Stop the lift at any position
within its travel range and it will not move. If power fails, the
lift stops and stays in position. It will not move until power
is restored and you operate the control pendant.
Insurance
The "Not In Motion" portion of most aircraft insurance
policies makes no distinction between an aircraft resting on the
floor of the hangar or resting on any type of hoist. Because your
policy coverage can change and not all policies are written identically,
we encourage you to verify your policy coverage for Aero-Lift applications
with your insurance underwriter or agent.
