DHOLLANDIA

If required, tilt the lift frame relative to the vehicle chassis, to ensure that the top surface of the lift frame is parallel to the vehicle
floor. A torpedo level is commonly used to ensure the alignment of the lift frame and vehicle floor. If convenient, the piston-rod
ends of the lift cylinders may be disconnected so that the lift arms and lift frame can move freely. [Figure 9.6]
Figure 9.6
NOTICE
Ensure the platform and lift frame are positioned in conformance with the mounting instructions and dimensions indicated in the
installation drawing and manual, before drilling or welding the mounting plates to the chassis.
It is not allowed to reduce the width of the mounting plates without prior written authorization from DHOLLANDIA.
10 FIXATION OF THE BOLT-ON MOUNTING PLATES

The mounting plates are designed as a bolt-on system, both where they mount to the lift frame, and where they mount to the
vehicle chassis.

If you intend to weld, beware of precautions below:
NOTICE WARNING

The tail lift might be equipped with thermoplastic hydraulic pipes, that can be easily damaged by welding. Damage to a pipe
can lead to sudden pressure loss, and accidental drop of the platform.

Welding sparks and slag penetrating hydraulic pipes under pressure, could cause a flaming flash, and serious personal injury
to the welder and any bystanders.

To avoid risk of serious personal injury, ALWAYS use adequate coverage (e.g. by a leather welding blanket) to shield the
thermoplastic pipes whenever welding is done on or near the tail lift.
CAUTION
 Before welding, note that welding on galvanized parts releases hazardous fumes. Provide adequate
ventilation, and wear an appropriate toxic fume rated welding respirator

It is strongly recommended to first grind off the galvanizing in areas where welding is to be done.
