Preparing vehicle
6.2 Creating cutouts for the lifting mechanism
(optional)
For most applications you will not need any special cutouts for
the lifting mechanism. If this is necessary, however, you can obtain
the dimensions for the cutouts from the general installation diagram
or the attachment report (attachment diagram) from PALFINGER
Tail Lifts.
Transfer the dimensions or the lifting mechanism cutouts from
the attachment diagram to the vehicle chassis.
Create the cutouts according to the attachment mounting
diagram and reinforce them.
Seal the blank body parts with rust protection and repaint them.
Observe the vehicle manufacturer's superstructure guidelines.
6.3 Reinforcing rear cross-member (optional)
Your truck's rear cross-member must be rated for your ordered type
of PALFINGER Tail Lifts tail lift. Your vehicle's rear cross-member
should be able to bear approximately twice the rated load of your
PALFINGER Tail Lifts tail lift (e.g. with a 1000K tail lift around 2000
kg). If the rated load of the rear cross-member is insufficient for
the ordered PALFINGER Tail Lifts tail lift, you may have to
reinforce it.
