E TIP Inc.'s model ET-250 security lock helps prevent unauthorized removal/theft of the Skyjack scissors lift control module from aerial work platform equipment.

Contractors on job sites around the world employ many scissors-type aerial lift platforms that help to speed construction jobs. Unauthorized removal or theft of the lift control module is a common problem that cripples progress on the job.

In at least one case an owner was surprised to find his missing Skyjack scissors lift control module being offered for sale on eBay, identified and confirmed by his decal in the photo. The thieves did not even bother to remove his identification.

This problem is easily controlled using the aerial lift control module lock by securing the module to the railing, according to E TIP..

The ET-250 security lock is simple to operate. The clevis pin that secures the control module housing to the railing is removed and the ET-250 security lock bracket fits over the housing using a hardened bolt to replace the clevis pin. The lock pod is fitted to the bracket and the key is removed, locking the lift control module to the railing. The keyway is faced down to protect it from contaminating spills and the weather.

The use of the Model ET-250 security lock helps to prevent the theft of the module or the unauthorized replacement of a functioning control module with a defective one. This protection can help to avoid equipment downtime and production delays caused by control module unauthorized removal.
