For Hydraulic under-slung tail lifts on Transit Van,
Bus and Kombi vehicles it is recommended to
design and/or locate the reinforcing plates in a
way that load can be routed into adjacent
reinforced underbody Cross member structure see
(A) in figure E176725.
For Chassis Cab with tail lift design it is
recommended to use unique body sub-frame for
fixing to Chassis Cab structure. For connection
between sub-frame and Chassis Cab body
structure, see figure E176724.
For tail lift electrical connections use the Customer
Connection Points,
Refer to: 4.19 Electrical Connectors and
Connections (page 191).
Greater off-sets and/or loads require additional
stabilizing equipment such as outriggers or ground
jacks. If uncertain please consult your local
National Sales Company representative or the
Vehicle Converter Advisory Service
VCAS@ford.com
It is the Vehicle converters responsibility to fit a
decal to the converted vehicle stating that the
equipment must not be used without
outriggers/ground jacks in operating position. It is
also the vehicle converters responsibility to
guarantee safe functioning of the equipment.
For hydraulic tail lifts as used for general loading
or more specialized for wheel-chair lifts refer to
E176546.
