lift
models are equipped with
electric fold actuators that
feature a built-in overload clutch
that slips (ratchets) when it
reaches the end of its stroke
(during unfolding and folding
functions). The ratchet (audible
clicking) signals the lift operator
that the platform has reached
the fully unfolded position or the
fully folded position.
When pressing the orange
UNFOLD (Out) switch to unfold
the platform from the stowed
position, the lift operator
must
continue to press the switch
until the actuator ratchets
(makes audible clicking)
. The
clicking sound indicates the
powered whale is fully unfolded
(deployed). If the actuator does
not ratchet, the whale has not
reached the fully unfolded
position and the
lift may be
damaged
when lowering or
raising the platform.
Note:
The platform must be in

Failure to do so may
result in lift damage.
the fully raised position before
the platform can be folded or
unfolded. If the platform does
not unfold when the UNFOLD
switch is pressed or the platform
does not fold when the FOLD
switch is pressed, press the UP
switch momentarily and try
again.
