Frequently Asked Questions
What is a MEWP inspection?
A MEWP inspection is a pre-use safety check for a mobile elevating work platform such as a boom lift or scissor lift. Before the platform is operated, the inspector confirms that controls, the emergency stop, alarms, guardrails, the access gate, harness anchor points, hydraulics, tires, and decals are present, undamaged, and functioning. The check follows the manufacturer's manual and standards such as OSHA 1926.453 and ANSI A92. The aim is simple: catch a defect before the lift is in the air, not after. A documented MEWP inspection gives the operator and the site a verifiable record that the machine was safe to use at the start of the shift.
How often should aerial lifts be inspected?
Run a pre-use inspection before every shift or before the equipment is operated, whichever comes first. Carry out an additional check after any maintenance or repair, after an incident or near miss, and whenever the lift is moved to a new site or handed to a different operator. Annual or interval thorough examinations by a competent person are separate from the daily pre-use check and are usually required by the manufacturer and local regulation. Recording each pre-use inspection in InspectWrk means the history is timestamped and traceable, so you can show exactly when a machine was last verified safe rather than relying on a signature on a clipboard.
What should I do if an item fails the inspection?
Stop. If a safety-critical item fails, do not operate the lift. Tag the equipment out so nobody else uses it, and raise a maintenance request straight away. Record the failed item with a clear description, severity, and photo evidence so the defect is unambiguous and the repair can be verified against it. In InspectWrk a failed checkpoint can become a corrective action with an owner and due date, and the equipment stays flagged until a re-inspection confirms the fix with a photo and sign-off. Only return the lift to service once the re-inspection passes, so a tagged-out machine cannot quietly slip back into use.
What does an aerial lift inspection form check?
The form covers three areas. First, equipment identification: site, date and time, equipment type, make and model, asset ID, and hour meter reading, so the result is traceable to a specific machine. Second, the pre-use safety checks: emergency stop, alarms and horn, all control functions, guardrails, the access gate, harness anchor points, decals and capacity labels, hydraulic lines and leaks, tires or tracks, and visible structural damage. Third, documentation and follow-up: pass, fail, or N/A per checkpoint, photos and notes for any defect, a tag-out or maintenance request field, and re-inspection confirmation. Running it digitally enforces the order so no safety-critical item is skipped under time pressure.
Can I complete the aerial lift inspection offline?
Yes. The InspectWrk mobile app is offline-first, which matters because lifts are often used in basements, plant rooms, partially built structures, and remote sites with no signal. The operator can open the form, work through every checkpoint, capture and annotate photos of any defect, record the hour meter reading, and tag the equipment out without any connection. All entries and images are stored on the device and sync automatically the moment connectivity returns. The pre-use check is never delayed waiting for a network, and no inspection is lost or rewritten later from memory, which is exactly when records become unreliable.
Does the app keep an audit trail for OSHA and safety reviews?
Yes. Every aerial lift inspection in InspectWrk is timestamped, attributed to the operator who completed it, and stored against the specific asset. Photos carry the time they were taken, and any defect, the corrective action raised from it, and the re-inspection that closed it are linked as one record. When a safety officer, client, or regulator asks for proof that a machine was checked before use, you export the history as a single PDF or share it live rather than searching through clipboards. This supports pre-use inspection requirements under OSHA 1926.453 and ANSI A92 and gives you a defensible record after an incident.
What Is an Aerial Lift Inspection Form?
Quick Answer
An aerial lift inspection form is the pre-use safety check operators complete before running a boom lift or scissor lift, covering controls, fall protection, hydraulics, tires, and emergency systems. Run it on the InspectWrk mobile app to record pass or fail per item, capture photo evidence of defects, tag unsafe equipment out, and keep an auditable record offline.
An aerial lift inspection form is a structured checklist used to verify that a mobile elevating work platform (MEWP), such as a boom lift or scissor lift, is safe to operate before use. It helps operators and supervisors confirm key safety systems, emergency lowering, controls, tyres, outriggers, fluid levels, and physical condition checks are completed consistently at the start of each shift. Defects are recorded with photo evidence so the machine can be tagged out and repaired before it returns to service, keeping the site aligned with OSHA and LOLER pre-use inspection requirements.
A documented inspection record reduces risk, supports compliance, and helps identify defects early so equipment can be tagged out and repaired before it becomes a safety incident.
Why pre-use lift checks fail when they are on paper
The pre-use check is signed in seconds without the operator walking the machine. A worn tire, a damaged guardrail, or a sticking control goes unrecorded until it causes an incident on site.
When a safety officer or regulator asks for the inspection history, the forms are on a clipboard in the site office. Half are unreadable, none are photo-evidenced, and nobody can prove the lift was checked that morning.
Importance
Aerial lift inspections protect operators and bystanders while improving equipment reliability. A consistent inspection form helps you:
- Prevent incidents before they happen:Catch defects in controls, fall protection points, tires, guardrails, and emergency systems early.
- Standardize checks across teams:One repeatable form means inspections are comparable across sites and operators.
- Improve traceability:A digital record with photos and notes provides evidence of what was checked and when.
- Reduce downtime:Early detection helps maintenance plan repairs and avoid unexpected breakdowns.
What Should Be Included in an Aerial Lift Inspection Form
A good aerial lift inspection form covers identification, safety-critical checks, and documentation fields for evidence and sign-off. Common sections include:
Equipment identification and context
Record the inspection context so the result is traceable:
- Site, location, and date/time of inspection
- Equipment type (boom/scissor), make/model, asset ID, and hour meter reading
- Inspector/operator name and sign-off
Pre-use safety checks
Verify core safety systems and readiness to operate:
- Emergency stop, alarms, and control functions
- Guardrails, access gate, harness points, and decals/labels
- Hydraulics, tires, leaks, and visible damage checks
Documentation and follow-up
Capture evidence and actions for issues found:
- Photos/notes for defects and unsafe conditions
- Pass/fail or yes/no results per checkpoint
- Tag-out/maintenance request fields and re-inspection confirmation
How to Use This Form
Use the form at the start of each shift or before operating the MEWP:
- Confirm equipment identity (asset ID / model) and inspection context.
- Work through each checkpoint in order, recording pass/fail and notes.
- If a critical issue is found, stop operation and tag the equipment out.
- Capture photo evidence for defects and assign follow-up actions.
- Re-run the inspection after maintenance before returning equipment to service.
