CPP – Portable Lift Doesn’t Raise And Lower – High Current

Print out version available here
In this scenario, the portable lift membrane displays:


The portable lift will alarm a single beep (0.5 secs apart) x2 cycles.
When the SWL (Safe Working Load) of the portable lift is exceeded, the portable lift will cut power to avoid excessive loading.


Inform the user that the SWL must not be exceeded during use. (The SWL can be located on the main label and in the User Manual)
Has this resolved your issue?(Required)
If there is excessive wear such as swarf from the frictional components, or frayed lift tape within the gearing of the portable lift, this will jam the rotation of the hub/motor, causing the lift to indicate “High Current”
Clear the swarf/wear from the gearing and inspect the condition. If there is excessive wear on the hub then the component must be replaced.



If the lift tape has frayed within the gears, the lift tape must be replaced.
Has this resolved your issue?(Required)
If there is no swarf/wear obstructing the rotation of the hub, there must be a gear box failure within one of the motors. Either they are not rotating, or there is high friction within the gear box causing a high amperage draw when operated.

Replace the motors as a pair.
