5TAIL LIFT TERMINOLOGY
5.1 DH-LSP* TAIL LIFT TERMINOLOGY
Refer to the OPERATION MANUAL for an overview of the most important terminology used in DHOLLANDIA manuals.
CAUTION
Welding on galvanised parts can produce hazardous fumes. To avoid intoxication:
ALWAYS wear a suitable respirator.
ALWAYS provide good ventilation.
ALWAYS grind off the galvanisation from the areas to weld.
Most tail lifts are equipped with thermoplastic hoses that can be damaged by hot metal chips, welding sparks and slag.
Damage to a hose can lead to sudden loss of hydraulic pressure and an accidental drop of the platform.
The penetration of welding sparks and slag can also cause a flash fire.
Both types of incidents can put the welder or installer and any bystanders at great risk of personal injury or death. To avoid
these risks:
ALWAYS protect and cover thermoplastic hoses with a welding blanket, prior to grinding, drilling and welding.
ALWAYS inspect the hydraulic hoses at the end of the installation process. Make sure all hoses are undamaged,
replace them if required.
Welding can cause severe damage to the electronic components of the vehicle and tail lift. To prevent damage:
ALWAYS follow the instructions and precautions of the vehicle manufacturer.
DO NOT weld if this is not authorised by the vehicle manufacturer.
ALWAYS disconnect the positive and negative battery terminals.
ALWAYS connect the earth directly to the component being welded, as close to the weld as possible.
Welding should be done by skilled and qualified installers only.
