PRE-ALI ASSESSMENT
What is a Pre-ALI Assessment?
A Pre-ALI Assessment evaluates the safety functions and operations of your vehicle lifts. At Hydraulic Solutions, as an authorized installer and factory-trained team, we have an in-depth understanding of your lift's technical features and safety protocols.
​
In Washington State, current laws require commercial businesses to undergo regular ALI Certifications to ensure the safety of both staff and customers. These inspections can be costly and time-consuming, and any violations or concerns identified during the process can directly affect your business operations and revenue.
​
Hydraulic Solutions is here to assist you. Before scheduling your required inspection, contact us for a Pre-ALI Assessment. While this assessment does not replace the state-mandated inspection or provide certification, it serves as a proactive check to help ensure you pass with ease.
Key Area's of Focus
During our assessment, we perform a multi-point equipment inspection and can immediately address any potential failure points. The goal of our Pre-ALI Assessment is to help you avoid potential failures during the official inspection, allowing you to keep your operations running smoothly without interruptions.
Item's that we assess:
​
-
Structural Integrity: Inspecting the overall structure of the lift for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
-
Safety Features: Verifying that safety features, such as safety locks, emergency stops, and warning devices, are functioning properly.
-
Electrical Systems: Checking the electrical components, including wiring and switches, for any signs of damage or wear.
-
Hydraulic Systems: Assessing hydraulic hoses and connections for leaks, wear, and proper functioning.
-
Lift Operation: Testing the lift’s operation to ensure it raises and lowers vehicles smoothly and without unusual noises or resistance.
-
Anchor Points: Ensuring that all anchor points are secure and properly installed.
-
Cable Condition: Examining cables for fraying, corrosion, or any signs of deterioration.
-
Fluid Levels: Checking hydraulic fluid levels and overall fluid health.
-
Documentation: Reviewing maintenance records and ensuring that any previous inspection findings have been addressed.

Compliance with Standards: Ensuring that the lift meets local, state, and federal safety regulations, as well as ALI certification requirements.
