What is Happening?

During recent major inspections Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP), manufacturer Nifty Lift identified cracking along the turret box/pedestal to subframe weld on two units. The units were not owned by Essential Energy but operated in a similar environment.

The cracking had not been detected during routine inspections.

On Monday 18 February the manufacturer issued advice that the turret box to subframe weld should be inspected as part of the quarterly inspections on NL170RKT and NL180RKT model MEWPs.

The manufacturer also recommended that equipment owners conduct an out of cycle inspection, to ensure that no undetected cracking in this section has occurred.
