Lifting the Platform
Before the platform is lifted it tilts to the horizontal position.
While the platform is lifted it remains in horizontal position.

Lift the platform depending on the model by means of the
lateral operating element, the foot control, or the hand cable
control, as described in chapter “Operating Elements” from
p. 38 in this manual.
Closing/Folding In/Retracting the Platform

Close, fold in or retract the platform depending on the
model by means of the lateral operating element, the foot
control, or the hand cable control, as described in chapter
“Operating Elements” from p. 38 of this manual.

Close the platform interlock (if present).
Loading or Unloading the Platform
CAUTION! Damage to the tail lift by incorrect loading!
The tail lift can be damaged if the platform load is too high or
unbalanced.

Do not exceed the maximum load weight specified in
chapter “Technical Data” from p. 156 of this manual when
loading the platform. Take the weight of the operator
standing on the platform into account. The load diagram is
also shown at the lateral operating element.

Center the load on the platform. The payload center of
gravity should be as close to the vehicle as possible. If
you load the platform on one side only, the payload
weight may be max. 50% of the permitted payload.

Rolling containers without brakes may only be loaded if
the tail lift is equipped with a roll-off protection (roll stops
or grooves). Rolling containers without brakes must al-
ways be secured by this roll-off protection.
CAUTION! Risk of injury!
Persons can fall off the platform and suffer from injuries.

When loading the platform, leave enough free space for
the operator (minimum 50 x 60 cm).
