Toolin' Around with Steve

---

Making a safer work environment is one of the big reasons we love this business. When owner Steve White was a mechanic, shops were often dangerous, hot and dirty places to work but modern shops have come a long way in improving working conditions, with major improvements in the available equipment. 

Working around big industrial equipment, it's easy to get complacent about the risks involved. (After all, who needs all ten fingers, right?)  While modern lifts are equipped with safety locks to prevent the car from crashing down, proper operating practices should always be used or there's a risk of injury. If your lift isn't functioning properly, if the locks are clicking out of sync, it's leaking fluid or the safety cable has broken, get a professional to repair it right away. You don't want to risk either the property or personal damage that can come from a malfunctioning machine. You can always call TGE at (813) 695-5165.

OSHA recommends a yearly inspection at a minimum and getting your equipment inspected can mean avoiding problems later on and costly down-time. Keep your equipment safely up and running, with a certified inspection. Give us a call to book an appointment.
