Problem: Hooklift will not operate or operates slow.
Solutions:
• Make sure the PTO is engaged.
• Make sure the control lever/cable assembly or air
actuator are shifting the spool valves on the valve
section
• Make sure that the hydraulic pump is operating at
its rated flow or GPMs under load. Check the flow
by using a flow meter to determine the GPMs. To
find the proper flow the equipment is to operate at,
see Chapter 6 of the Hooklift Owner’s Manual.
• Make sure the relief pressure is properly set per the
specifications page of the hooklift owners manual.
• Make sure the spool valves on the valve bank are
adjusted and operating smoothly.
Problem: Lift cylinder operates, but the tilt cylinder
operates slow or does not operate at all.
Solutions:
• Make sure the rotary valve arm is properly adjust-
ed. See Rotary Valve Drawing in the Installation
Chapter of this manual.
• Make sure the rotary valve arm is not damaged or
has become disconnected.
Problem: Hydraulic system gets extremely hot.
Solutions:
• Make sure the hydraulic filter has been changed
per the maintenance page of the Hooklift Owner’s
Manual.
• Make sure the filter strainer of the hydraulic reser-
voir is not plugged.
• Make sure that the hydraulic pump is operating at
its rated flow or GPMs.
• Make sure the relief pressure is set properly. See
Table 1.1 of Chapter 6: Installation for proper setting.
Problem: Hooklift will not lift or pickup a loaded con-
tainer.
Solutions:
• Make sure the container contents are evenly dis-
tributed.
• Make sure the container and its load does not
exceed the rated capacity.
• Make sure the relief pressure is properly set per
Table 1.1 in the Installation Chapter of this manual.
• Make sure the hydraulic pump is operating at its
rated flow or GPMs. See Chapter 4: Specifications.
• Make sure that the container is not fixed to the
ground or frozen down.
Problem: Dump weldment lifts upward while picking
up a container.
Solutions:
• Make sure the rear hooklift rollers spin freely and
smoothly.
• Make sure the body hold down brackets are not
worn or bent.
Problem: Tab alarm sounds off inside chassis cab.
Solutions:
• Break away tabs on dump weldment have broken
loose. Re-install break away tabs using a Grade 5
5⁄16” bolt.
Problem: Hooklift binds at pivot points.
Solutions:
• Make sure the pivot points are lubricated.
• Make sure pivot pins are not seized to the bushing.
• Make sure the weldments or pins are not mis-
aligned or bent.
Problem: Cylinders drift upward or downward while
hydraulics are dis-engaged.
Solutions:
• Make sure valve spools are shifting to three neutral
position.
• Possible contamination keeping the holding valve
open.
• Possible internal piston seals rolled or damaged.
