Preparing vehicle
Before mounting the
PALFINGER Tail Lifts
tail lift on your vehicle,
you must prepare the vehicle accordingly. The specific steps vary
according to the intended purpose and the vehicle type.
Technical
parameters
You can obtain the most important technical parameters from
the general installation diagram and thus determine in advance
the scope of work required to prepare the vehicle. These include:
• the installation height
• the required projection
• the position of the platform and lifting mechanism under
the vehicle
• the fixing of installation aids
• the required space for the lifting mechanism for any offset rear
lights
• the thickness of the vehicle's rear cross-member and any cutouts
required in the lower tail chassis
To prepare the vehicle for installation of the
PALFINGER Tail Lifts
tail lift, the following steps must be completed:
• remove projecting parts of the vehicle (see chapter 6.1
• make any necessary cutouts for the lifting mechanism
and reinforce these (see chapter 6.2 on page 21),
• reinforce the rear cross-member, if required
Vehicles with box
bodies
Additional steps may be necessary for vehicles with box bodies
or flat beds (with or without gates) (see chapter 6.4 on page 22).
These include:
• mounting the supplied connecting profile on the vehicle,
• preparing and mounting bridging profiles/spacers,
• mounting the optional sealing system.
