Quick Check List
1.
Operate the liftgate throughout its entire operation and check for noise and damage such as bent
parts or cracked welds.
2.
Inspect all welds and fasteners that attach the mount frame to the truck. All pins and bolts that
connect the liftarm to the mount frame and to the platform.
3.
Visually inspect the hydraulic lines for damage, scratches, bending or leakage.
4.
Inspect the cylinders for leakage and that the cylinder pins are secured with lock bolts.
5.
Check the oil level when the platform is down at ground level. The oil le
vel should be 1“ from the top
of the reservoir. We recommend replacing oil after the first 1200 cycles, after that on a yearly basis
in the fall before winter begins.
6.
Check for oil leakage around the power pack and inside mount tube. Tighten or replace components
if needed. If you perform work on any hydraulic components bleed the air out of the system by
operating all functions several times.
7.
Check all electrical connections. Clean and protect battery terminals and check for tightness.
8.
Inspect all the terminals on the solenoid-operated valves at the port of the cylinder. Lubricate the
terminals for better protection from oxidation if needed.
9.
Grease all zerks on the liftgate and make sure they all take grease. Sometimes it helps to operate
the liftgate while you do this.
10.
Test all the liftgate functions.
11.
Check the function of the pressure relief valve.
12. When doing daily checks and you find any kind of damage that can make the use of the liftgate
dangerous, it must be repaired before using. All repairs should be made by an authorized technician.
Use only original spare parts. If in doubt contact your Palfinger Liftgates distributor or call Palfinger
Liftgates directly.
Do not cover up any accidents or damage; it can be dangerous for you and your co-workers.

Troubleshooting
Please check the following points before identifying any faults.
Serious injuries are possible from tools short circuiting main battery connections. Do not leave tools
or other equipment that may cause shorts around the battery.
Please change oil after working on hydraulic unit (removal of valves, opening of cylinder etc.)
There is a possibility of injury if somebody other than an authorized technician works on the liftgate.
Injuries are possible if short circuits are caused by tools, jewelry, or other conductive objects on or
near the battery connections.
