The proximity switch should detect the cylinder when the tailgate is locked and should not detect
it when the tailgate is unlocked.
Tailgate Fully Open Proximity Switch
The Tailgate Fully Open proximity switch allows you to enable the ejection cycle when the tailgate is
fully open. This is possible because this proximity switch bypasses the Packer Fully Extended
proximity switch that limits packer travel to the fully extended position, allowing the packer to
complete a full eject sweep.
Location
The Tailgate Fully Open proximity switch is located on the street side, next to the tailgate hinge.

When the tailgate is unlocked both the in-cab buzzer and the backup alarm sound. Also, a red
warning light, located at the center of the buzzer, blinks.

The proximity switch should not detect the target and the Tailgate Up switch on the control
panel should flash red.
4.
Repeat the procedure until the proximity switch is properly adjusted.
Arms Partially Raised Proximity Switch
This proximity switch stops the arms at mid-height if the packer is not in the “home” position.
