Accordion Skirts have a functional purpose as well as a
safety purpose. Complies with the OSHA pinch point specifications. The
functional advantage is minimizing dirt and debris accumulation under the
platform. Dirt can contaminate electrical and hydraulic components. Life
expectancy of both can be substantially reduced by this contamination.
Debris such as raw materials, boards, or pallets can restrict the scissor or
table movement. Accordion skirts serve to keep debris from damaging the
operating mechanism, hydraulic components, or electrical parts. Safety is
enhanced by keeping arms, legs, fingers, and toes out from under the table.
Standard electric toe-guards are not included when scissor table is fitted
with accordion skirt option.
