11 INSTALLATION OF CONTROL SWITCH
11.1 MOUNTING OF THE CONTROL SWITCH

Mount the toggle switch in a position that allows the operator to work from a safe standing area at the side of the tail lift,
outside reach of the platform and other moving parts of the lift.

Mount it in a location that is accessible from the ground and the vehicle floor level.
NOTICE
In order to avoid water ingress and electrical malfunction, NEVER mount the toggle switch facing upward. [Figure 11.]
a. Measure the holes on the control unit itself or use the template [Figure 11.1] to drill the screw holes, and the passage for the
electrical cable.
b. Use 4.3mm self-tapping screws to mount the control switch.
c. Route the electrical cable to the pump unit. Position, fasten and protect it in such a way that it cannot be damaged by the moving
parts of the tail lift or other vehicle components.
Figure 11.1
d. Feed the electrical cable through the rubber grommet at the rear of the pump unit. Check and make sure the rubber grommet
properly seals and protects the inside of the pump unit, after passing the cable.
e. Prevent ingress of water into the pump unit and control boxes if applicable [Figure 11.2 - Figure 11.3]:
1. Route and secure cables downward, forming a “drip loop” as they exit the pump unit.
2. Wrap a zip-tie around the cable before it enters the pump unit or control box. This will help to interrupt the flow of water
into the enclosure.
f. Connect the wires of the cable to the connection points in the pump unit, as per wiring diagrams attached.
g. Coil in the excess cable inside the pump unit. Fix and immobilize it with cable ties to the hydraulic return pipe of the valve block.
