PUTTING THE LIFTGATE INTO SERVICE
•
If not already done, remove the
installation guide bracket
between the lift arms and the lift frame.
•
Make sure that the lift frame and mount plates are installed in
accordance with the installation drawings and instructions.
•
Make sure that all bolts and nuts are fastened with the
prescribed torque. See appendix 19.2 on page 51.
•
Make sure that all electrical connections are finished in
accordance with the instructions under section 12 from page
31 onwards.
•
Refer to the operation manual and decals for instructions how
to operate the liftgate safely. See also 19.4 from page 54
onwards.
•
Switch on the electrical power to the liftgate (cabin switch,
main battery isolator switch, or a combination of both).
•
Operate LIFT to raise platform up to vehicle floor. Stop when
you hear the hydraulic pump turn in overpressure.
WARNING
•
Improper use of the liftgate can put the operator at great risk of serious bodily injury and death. If in doubt how to use liftgate
correctly, ALWAYS consult the operation manual prior to continuing
•
Check for visible leaks of hydraulic oil as the system is being pressurized. If there is leakage, correct the problem prior to
continuing.
•
Air might be trapped in the hydraulic circuits, as long as the liftgate has not been bled. Air can cause the platform to make
unexpected movements and can put the installer at great risk of serious bodily injury. The installer MUST remain vigilant and stay
out of the range of motion of the platform and the moving parts of the lift as long as the hydraulic circuits have not been bled and
all functions duly tested.
