Safety Valve Installation
Incorporated into the standard Stellar Hooklift is a safety valve designed to protect the dump section tabs from
being damaged by the tilt section.
It is important to locate this valve properly for safe operation of the Stellar Hooklift.
This cartridge is located in the main valve stack and MUST be placed off of the tilt cylinder retract port. The
following illustrations show a standard (driver side) installation and an optional (passenger side) installation.
Passenger side installations are common when mounting to cab-over chassis. All valve stacks are shipped for
standard (driver side) installations. The safety valve must be moved to the tilt cylinder retract port for all non-
standard installations. This valve will be switched with a load check plug when being moved to an alternate
position. A poppet and spring are located behind the safety valve and load check plugs. Care should be taken not
to lose these parts when modifying.
