ATTENTION INSTALLERS:
Changes are made periodically to the installation procedure to comply with engineering changes. To
ensure proper liftgate operation, it is
VERY IMPORTANT
to read and understand the installation
instructions before attempting an installation. Installers also
MUST
read and understand the liftgate’s
Owner’s Manual before installing the liftgate, so they can operate the liftgate safely as required during
different stages of the installation process.
NEVER
perform a modification on the liftgate, which is not
specifically covered in the manual or which is unauthorized by Thieman. Modifications may result in
failure of the liftgate and may create hazards for liftgate installers, operators, or maintainers. Serious
damage, equipment failure, or operator injury could result from improper installation. This equipment
MUST
have all decals applied properly.
FAILURE
to apply all decals properly will
VOID
all warranties!
Any installer with questions or doubts should contact Thieman before proceeding.
The M, MLB, MDC, and MDCLB are stow-away style liftgates for use on trucks and trailers. Before
mounting your liftgate, make sure that the model you have will work on the truck or trailer you intend to
mount it on. The loaded and unloaded bed height of your truck (with weight of liftgate figured in)
MUST
fall within the bed height range of your liftgate. To determine the bed height range of your liftgate, you
must know the full model name, the platform material of both the main section and extension (i.e. both
steel, both aluminum, or steel main with aluminum extension), and the platform size (see charts and fig-
ures on pages 2 thru 4).
NOTES:
1. The tip of the platform will touch the ground on standard STOW-AWAY liftgates, but not on gates
designed for “level ride”. “Ramp ride” is standard, “level ride” is built for special order only.
2. Reference figures 1 and 2 for charted dimensions on pages 2 thru 4.
3. All maximum mounting dimensions are shown with the vehicle empty; all minimum mounting dimen-
sions are shown with the vehicle loaded.
4. Check bed height “H” when parked on a level surface.
5. Check “C” dimension for possible interference with spring hanger bracket before installation.
6. If the liftgate was ordered with the optional 216 receiver kit, use the loaded bed height (Hmin) to
determine what set of mounting dimensions to use. Bed height range for 216 Kit is 42" min. (vehicle
fully loaded) and 54" max. (vehicle empty).
