Preparing for installation
• Are all required tools and auxiliary equipment available?
Are any another special tools required?
• Do cutouts have to be made for the lifting mechanism?
• Should a seal be installed in vehicles with a box body without
rear doors? If yes, you must allow a space between
the platform and the box body.
• Is the use of trailers planned? If yes, sufficient space for
the trailer coupling must be available and the free movement
of the drawbar must be ensured.
• Has allowance been made for the space required for
the optional grab handle (25 mm finger room between
platform and handle)?
When all these points have been checked off, you can start with
the installation of your
PALFINGER Tail Lifts tail lift. The
installation consists of several steps, which are described in more
detail on the following pages. They include:
• preparation of vehicle or vehicle chassis (see chapter 6
on page 20),
• installing the lifting mechanism (see chapter 7 on page 24),
• establishing electrical connections (see chapter 8 on page 37),
• installing and connecting the platform (see chapter 9
on page 42),
• adjusting and testing the platform (see chapter 10 on page 50).
