Motor Running but Unable to Lift or Lower

When the lift motor is still running steadily but the lift is not moving, it may be due to:

• Low hydraulic oil level; you need to refill the oil promptly.
• Safety devices not being fully closed; you need to check and close all safety equipment.

Can Lower but Cannot Lift

Another common fault in freight lifts is the ability to lower but not lift. This phenomenon may be due to a weak electrical current, insufficient to operate the system. An inspection is required to fix it for immediate use.
