Troubleshooting
This section describes how to troubleshoot your Lift.
Note: If your Lift is not functioning correctly, you must take it out of service until it is fixed.
Important: All repair work
must
be done by qualified personnel.
Issue Action to Take
Platforms move erratically
or squeak when in use.
Move the Platforms up and down a few times, with a break between
each; there could be residual air in the Hydraulic System.
Platforms do not go up or
down.
Make sure the Power Unit is connected to an appropriate power
source.
Make sure the Hydraulic Hoses are not pinched or leaking.
Make sure there is sufficient Hydraulic Fluid in the reservoir on the
Power Unit.
Vehicle with no tires is fully
lowered, Lift will not go up.
Too much weight on the Frames; no room to get upward motion
started. Refer to
Vehicle with No Tires Fully Lowered
.
Hydraulic Fluid is old or
dirty.
Replace the dirty fluid with clean, approved Hydraulic Fluids, such as
Dexron III, Dexron VI, Mercon V, Mercon LV, Shell Tellus S4 / S3 /
S2, or comparable.
Platforms make odd noises
when in use.
Lubricate hinge points using white lithium grease.
Platforms are slowly
lowering on their own.
Make sure both Platforms are engaged on Safety Locks (if not,
Hydraulic Fluid could be leaking out, lowering the Platforms). Only
leave the Lift either fully lowered or engaged on a Safety Lock.
If you continue to have problems with your Lift, contact your dealer, visit bendpak.com/support,
email support@bendpak.com, or call (800) 253-2363, extension 196.
Vehicle with No Tires Fully Lowered
The issue is that there is too much weight on the Frames with no room to get upward force started.
You need to reduce the weight by at least half or raise the Vehicle off the Frames some other way.
Methods that have fixed this issue include:
• Use a floor jack to raise the Vehicle from four to six inches, giving enough room to get upward
force started
• Use lifting equipment to raise the Vehicle off the Frames
If you are still unable to raise your Vehicle, contact Technical Support for assistance.
