-
Think constantly about safety and the environment.
At the moment when it is possible switch off the
pump and system and the hoses and/or pipes between the pump and the Cargo Floor drive unit must be
uncoupled and also unplug the electrical connection. Use enough oil drip trays and dispose the oil in a
responsible manner.
-
Work as clean as possible. Preferably seal all pipes and hydraulic openings during the repair, so that no
pollution of the oil will occur.
-
Always replace, when exchanging a cylinder, the supplied rod guiding set;
-
When the cylinders are being installed the floor must be
empty
! In the event that this is impossible, the
bolts have to be checked with a torque wrench immediately after running empty;
-
Check the oil level after assembly;
-
Check/replace the pressure filter!
-
When sending back the cylinder, please follow the instructions given!
Always try to determine the reason why the cylinder had be replaced. When the reason was found and
the cause can be taken away, then a similar problem in the future could be avoided.
IMPORTANT:
Always check that the selected loading or unloading direction is actually activated and occurring!!
If the system fails to start, turn off the Cargo Floor system and the hydraulic pump and follow the
recommendations and guidelines provided below. Do not repeatedly try to start the system as this may result
in damage to your Cargo Floor system and/or vehicle.
After use, turn off the Cargo Floor system and hydraulic pump. Set switches to the "0" position and the lever
in neutral.
In case of doubt or uncertainty about these recommendations and guidelines, always contact your dealer or an
official workshop.
The Cargo Floor system comes standard with an operating manual, but is this has not been supplied, please
contact your dealer or download it from the official Cargo Floor website:
A)
Always open the vehicle's doors before turning on the hydraulic pump. Note! Build-up of pressure against
the doors can force them open, which may cause some of the cargo to fall out of the vehicle. That is why it is
always advisable to use the pneumatic lock, if provided.
B)
1. Check that the vehicle's (quick-detachable) couplings are properly connected to the P (Pressure line, min.
20mm [3/4”]) and the T (tank/return line, min. 25mm [1”]). Also check that the couplings are fully tightened
or slid completely into each other.
IMPORTANT: the pressure and return line connectors may not be reversed or exchanged
to prevent
dirt or water from entering the lines when connecting them!
2. Before connecting, check that the non-return valves can open easily (check: the non-return valves should
open easily when pressed with the finger, if not, potential pressure build-up in the hydraulic lines may be
preventing the system from starting).
NOTE: Incorrectly connected or unopened hydraulic couplings will cause serious damage to the Cargo Floor
system and the vehicle.
