6.5 Ordering Replacement Parts
Presto has carefully chosen the components in your lift to be the best available for the purpose.
Replacement parts should be identical to the original equipment. Presto will not be responsible
for equipment failures resulting from the use of incorrect replacement parts or from unauthorized
modifications of the machine.
Presto will gladly supply you with replacement parts for your Presto lift. With your order, please
include the model number and the serial number of the lift. You can find these numbers on the
name plate. When you are ordering parts for a cylinder, also include the cylinder number. This is
stamped on the base of the cylinder housing.
To order replacement parts, please call the Parts Department. See Warranty & Contact

7. Troubleshooting
Symptom
Possible Cause
What to Look For
Platform will not raise.
Power unit not receiving power.
Check that machine is plugged into a
115/1/60 outlet on a dedicated 20 amp
circuit and outlet is powered.
Up limit switch (if applicable) may
be activated or defective.
Verify up limit switch is not activated or
malfunctioning.
The photo eye beam may be
obstructed or photo eye may be
misaligned.
Verify there are no obstructions of the
photo eye beam. If properly aligned the
led on the photo eye will be illuminated.
Push-button/foot controls may not
be functioning correctly.
Inspect the control cord, for damage.
Excessive loading
Verify that load on the platform does
not exceed the rated capacity of the
machine.
Hydraulic fluid may be low.
With the platform in the lowered position,
the fluid should be approximately 3/4 of
an inch from the top of the reservoir.
The reservoir vent may be
blocked.
Verify that the vent cap on the top of the
reservoir is not blocked.
