• The lift system uses the hydraulic pump to obtain proportional lifting function controlled by
the lift valve and proportional valve.
• Lowering is single speed controlled by the holding valves on the lift cylinder(s) and regu-
lated by a fixed orifice located on the lift cylinder(s).
• Platform capacity is limited by a hydraulic relief valve in the lift circuit. (Refer to Machine
Specifications or the Hydraulic Schematic for proper setting).

3072RT
One (1) single acting type hydraulic cylinder.
The cylinder has an integrated 2-position, 2-way solenoid operated platform lower valve for hold-
ing the platform in position. The
valve is also externally actuated
via a cable for manually lowering
the platform.
3772RT
Two (2) single acting type hydrau-
lic cylinders.
Each cylinder has an integrated
2-position, 2-way solenoid oper-
ated platform lower valve for
holding the platform in position.
The valves are also externally
actuated via a toggle switch for
manually lowering the platform.
The normally closed holding
valve prevents retraction of the
cylinder rod should a hydraulic
line rupture or a leak develop
between the cylinder and its
related control valve.
