18. Rear Impact Guard Installation
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT modify the rear impact guard in
any way. Doing so may result in the rear
impact guard becoming non-compliant
with Federal Regulations.
1. Identify the TL liftgate MODEL that the rear impact guard
will be installed.
2. Measure the VEHICLE DECK HEIGHT and VEHICLE WIDTH
that the rear impact guard will be installed.
3. With the information obtained from Step 2, refer to the
following table, to verify the correct rear impact guard is
being installed
(Figure 56)
.
4. Using the control station, lower the liftgate to the ground and
open the platform in accordance with the TL Operations
and Maintenance Manual XL-TG10150UD-en-US supplied
with your liftgate
(Figure 57).
5. Turn the liftgate master disconnect switch to the
“OFF” position.
Failure to turn the liftgate master disconnect
switch to the “OFF” position before working
under the liftgate could allow for the
operation of the liftgate, which if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
6. Slide the rear impact guard under the liftgate lift frame and
position the rear impact guard mounting plates
(Figure 57).
7. Align the rear impact guard mounting plate holes with the
lift frame rear impact guard mounting holes
(Figure 58).
8. Install the provided 5/8" x 2-1/4" bolts, washers and nuts into
the eight (8) rear impact guard mounting holes
(Figure 58)
.
9. Torque each nut to 200 ft.-lbs. (271 N•m).
