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.
