14 PLATFORM ORIENTATION
1. LIFT the platform to the floor height. Lay a straight edge lengthwise across the platform. Make sure the flip-over point and
platform main section are even with each other. [Figure 14.1]
2. If needed, adjust the angle between the 2 platform sections by turning the 2 adjuster bolts at the underside of the platform main
section. Loosen the counter nuts, then adjust bolt length, and retighten the counter nuts. [Figure 14.1]. Make sure both sides
are adjusted equally, so that all bolts will support the flip-over point (and its load) evenly.
3. Check and adjust the orientation of the whole platform compared to the extension plate and vehicle floor. Because the tail lift will
decline slightly when loaded, adjust the platform pitch so that the tip is 25.4mm to 50.8mm higher than the extension plate.
[Figure 14.2]
4. Adjust the platform pitch using the 2 adjuster bolts at the inboard edge of the platform main section [dim. Y in Figure 14.2].
Loosen the counter nuts, then adjust the bolt length, and retighten the counter nuts. Make sure both sides are adjusted
equally, so that all bolts will support the platform (and its load) evenly.
WARNING

Failure to adjust the pitch of the flip-over point and complete platform properly, can cause the cargo to fall off the platform during
operation.

Falling cargo will put the operator and any bystanders at serious risk of bodily injury and death.

Therefore, it is important that the pitch of the flip-over point and complete platform are adjusted correctly conform with
instructions in this manual.
