Tail lift on/off switch
[min. 1 compulsory]. Depending on configuration, the
electrical power to the tail lift is switched on / off by means of:
1.
A
cabin switch
(provided by the truck manufacturer or DHOLLANDIA
[option OAE503.2]). This switch enables the operator to switch the control
power to the exterior control box on / off. If equipped with a position sensor
[option OAE502], it also provides a signal if the platform is stowed in its
travel position, or left open.
2.
A
main battery disconnect switch
integrated in the exterior control box
[optional]. This switch enables the operator to switch the main battery
power to the tail lift on / off. If available, the operator MUST switch off the
main battery disconnect switch after each use of the tail lift.
3.
A combination of both.
•
Fuses
[standard]. A 15A fuse for the electrical control circuit is premounted in the pump unit and in the exterior control box (for
most types). A 150 - 250A fuse for the electrical main battery circuit is supplied by the truck manufacturer or by DHOLLANDIA.
Both fuses protect the electrical circuits against short-circuits and amperage peaks.
•
Protection of toes and feet against crushing and sheering
[1 min.
compulsory]. The tail lift standard EN1756-1 and DHOLLANDIA’s fitting
manuals provide a number of solutions to prevent the operator from
crushing his toes or feet between in the inboard platform edge of the rising
platform and the rear sill of the vehicle floor. At least 1 solution, ordered
from DHOLLANDIA, or realised during installation, must be foreseen.
Consult the installation manual FIT-ELEC-OPTION in its latest version. In
case of doubt, contact DHOLLANDIA. See page 4 for contact information.
•
Foot controls
[optional]. See also previous point. Platform mounted foot
controls (2 buttons or 4 buttons) immobilise the feet of the operator on a
safe position on the platform, and protect him from crushing his toes or feet
between in the inboard platform edge of the rising platform and the rear sill
of the vehicle floor.
•
Cart-stops
[optional]. If a platform is aimed at LIFTING and LOWERING
loads that cannot be braked or secured by their design or their method of
transportation, the platform MUST be equipped with cart-stops that prevent
the load from accidentally rolling off the platform, and hitting the operator or
any bystanders. DHOLLANDIA offers a variety of cart-stops that can be
fitted near the outboard platform edge, or at intermediate distances.
