True or False: The maximum load indicated for a lift is based on regular use without safety locks.

The statement is false. The maximum load capacity for a lift indeed takes safety features into account, including safety locks. This capacity is determined under the assumption that these safety systems are operational and that the lift is being used in a safe manner, adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines.

Lifts are designed with safety mechanisms that must be engaged during operation to ensure that the load limit does not surpass a safe threshold. If the load capacity were only determined based on regular use without considering these safety features, it could potentially lead to dangerous situations if the lift were overloaded. Thus, a lift's rating relies on the assumption that it will be used properly, with all safety systems, including locks, functioning as intended.

The other options provide information that is less relevant to the load indication. For example, the claim about the load varying by vehicle type is not a direct response to the question, as maximum loads are typically standardized by the lift manufacturer. Likewise, the assertion about modern lifts automatically having safety locks is true but does not address the core of the question regarding load indication.
