Normally tilters will require very little maintenance. However, a routine maintenance
program could prevent costly replacement of parts and/or downtime.

WARNING!

To avoid personal injury, NEVER go under the tilter platform or
perform any maintenance on the tilter until the load is removed
and the platform is securely blocked in the open position. See
"Blocking Instructions" section.

MONTHLY INSPECTION

1.

Check oil level (see oil recommendations in this section) and add appropriate oil
when necessary.

2.

3.

Check any unusual noise when it occurs. Determine the source and correct as
necessary.

4.

Check all wiring for looseness or wear. Repair at once.
