General-duty citation text

Section 27(a)(3)(a)(1):  The employer did not furnish employment and a
place of employment
which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or were likely
to cause death or
serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to the
hazard of being
caught under vehicles or the lift structure, or being struck by a falling
vehicle, in the event of
hydraulic failure of the single post Dresser Frame Kontact Hoist (F-10
series W/offset arms).
Note:  No serial number was available).  Danger exists when employee(s)
are servicing vehicles
in the Auto-Tech Training Shop area, while using and under this lift.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard is
to equip the lift with a mechanical device to hold the lift in the fully
extended position as
recommended by the American National Standards Institute and the
Automotive Lift Institute in
the Industry standard ANSI/ALI B153.1, (Section #4.1.11-Locking
Device)-1990, "Safety
Requirements for the Construction, Care and Use of Automotive Lifts".  The
device
should have
a strength factor of not less than 3, based on the rated load capacity of
the lift.
