3 Important Information
Before Getting Started
“READ FIRST”
The PTV is an industrial hydraulic lifting device. Performance and reliability are closely related to
proper installation, battery cable connections, and grounding. All grounding surfaces MUST be
cleaned, prepared to bare metal, free of paint, undercoating, dirt, grease, and sealed per this manual.
“Cut to size” cables MUST be properly crimped and sealed as factory supplied. All connections MUST
be dressed with dielectric grease or equivalent sealer.
• Read and understand the “Installation Manual” and “Owner’s Manual” in their entirety before starting your
Installation.
• Refer to the truck manufacturer’s instructions before adding any auxiliary equipment. The installer is
responsible for compliance with this manual, OEM and FMVSS requirements.
• The installer should never place any portion of him/herself or any other person underneath the liftgate at
any point during the installation, unless the liftgate is fully welded AND all moving components are safely
secured.
• All welding should be performed by qualified personnel per AWS standards.
• Always ground closest to your welding point to prevent arcing through moving parts or electrical parts.
• Contact PALFINGER Liftgates for Special Installations not covered in this Installation Manual.
• Do not paint cylinder shafts or nylon bearings (Use non-chlorinated brake cleaner to remove over spray)
• Final Check-Off-Sheet at rear of this manual MUST be filled out and kept in your records for future
reference.
