Installing lifting mechanism

There are two options for mounting the lifting mechanism:

• Installation with installation aids (see chapter 7.1 on page 23)
• Installation with mounted platform (see chapter 7.2 on

page 32)

7.1

Installation with installation aids

To assist in the installation of the lifting mechanism of your 

PALFIN-

GER Tail Lifts 

tail lift, you can on request obtain special installation 

aids. This installation aids support you in mounting the lifting mech-
anism. The following steps are required when installing with instal-
lation aids:

• position and fix the installation aids on the vehicle chassis (see 

chapter 7.1.1 on page 23)

• position lifting mechanism under the vehicle (see chapter 7.1.2 

on page 24),

• bolt lifting mechanism to installation aids (see chapter 7.1.3 on 

page 25),

• position the stand tube (see chapter 7.1.4 on page 26),
• fix lifting mechanism with console plates to vehicle chassis (see 

chapter 7.1.5 on page 26),

• mount hydraulic unit (see chapter 7.1.6 on page 31),
• remove installation aids (see chapter 7.1.7 on page 31).

7.1.1

Positioning and fixing the installation aids on the 
vehicle chassis

 CAUTION

Risk of falling equipment!

If you incorrectly position the installation aids or do not fix it correctly, the lifting 
mechanism may fall and cause personal injury or material damage.

Make sure that the installation aids are correctly positioned and properly fixed.
