CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN THE RESERVOIR
Check the oil with the platform fully raised and in the open position. Oil should
be within 3” below the top of the reservoir. The liftgate is shipped with Shell
Tellus 15. Check the owner’s manual for additional recommended oils. Fill as
required with the specified fluid in the owner’s manual. Do not overfill the
reservoir.
OIL OVERFLOWS FROM THE RESERVOIR
Confirm that the operator is operating the liftgate properly. Check and inspect
the oil level in the reservoir. It could be overfilled.
RECOMMENDED LIFTGATE BATTERY(S)
The recommended lift gate battery(s) should be Dual Purpose Group 31. The
battery(s) should have 650-750 cold cranking amps and at least 180 minutes
of reserve capacity. When replacing the liftgate battery inspect the cables and
wires for corrosion.
LIFTGATE WILL NOT RAISE – MOTOR DOES NOT RUN
• Check the cab shut off switch confirm that the switch is on and functional*
• Check the master disconnect switch located on the pump box. Confirm
that the switch is turned on.
• Check 150 amp circuit breaker located in pump box
• Check for voltage at the motor solenoid. If you have at least 10.5 volts at
the solenoid when the switch is activated and you have no power to the
motor then replace the motor solenoid. Check the pump motor for battery
voltage. Confirm by checking voltage on the motor post. If the motor does
not run after confirming battery voltage at the terminal on the motor,
replace the defective motor.
• Check the battery(s) for a full state of charge. Load test the lift gate
battery(s). Replace any batteries that cannot be fully charged.
• Check the 15 amp circuit breaker located in pump box.
• Check the cables for damages clean any dirty connections and tighten any
