If your BendPak Lifting Systems motor isn't running, verify the power source connection, ensuring it's properly plugged in and has the correct voltage. Also, compare the wiring to the lift's wiring diagram to ensure everything matches.
Why my BendPak PL-12000DP Lifting Systems does not stay up?
If your BendPak Lifting Systems won't stay up, check for any hydraulic fluid leaks. Also, ensure that the lift remains engaged on the safety locks.
How to troubleshoot BendPak Lifting Systems that won't raise or lower?
If your BendPak Lifting Systems does not raise or lower, start by checking the hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir. Ensure there is no air in the hydraulic system and inspect the hydraulic lines for any pinching or leaks. Also, verify that the power unit is receiving power and that the lift is not overloaded. If the hydraulic fluid is dirty, replace it with clean fluid.
What to do if BendPak PL-12000DP platforms move erratically?
If the platforms on your BendPak Lifting Systems move erratically or squeak during use, try moving them up and down several times. This action should help flush any residual air out of the hydraulic system.
Why my BendPak PL-12000DP Lifting Systems makes odd noises?
If your BendPak Lifting Systems is making odd noises, lubricate the bushings on the sheaves on the sides of the crossbeams using white lithium grease. If it's a new lift, it may just need a break-in period; try running the lift several times each day.
