  • Page 4: Glossary Of Terms

    Hydraulic Cylinder Valves are sold separately or as part of a tap-in kit. The valves are shown for reference / identification purposes only. Your specific installation may require other equipment not shown. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20 Creators of the TuckAway...
  • Page 5: Installation Safety

    Do not paint over caution and warning labels.  If there are any questions about the proper installation or use of the cart lifter not covered in the manual, it is recommended to call Perkins at 800-882-5292. Installation Tips Do not mount the lifter to a refuse body which is not already mounted to a chassis.
  • Page 7 (usually to the curb side) as shown in the picture at right. A double installation will place a lifter 17 ½” to the left and 17 ½” to the right of the truck’s centerline. A typical offset installation. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20 Creators of the TuckAway...

  • Page 9 The maximum amount of weight that can be lifted is limited by the pressure relief valve. The settings must be determined with a pressure gauge. The D6213 requires 2,000 psi to lift a 1,500 lb. load. Place a pressure gauge after the hand valve and run the actuator until it stops, continue activating the handle and note the pressure on the gauge.
  • Page 10 (typically about 48” high) so that repeated ergonomics is easy to use and safe. The Perkins hand valve assembly comes with a mounting bracket which may be welded directly to the side of the truck. Typically, the hand valve’s handle will point to the back of the truck...
  • Page 11 With the system off and depressurized, find the pressure line that feeds the packer valve and disconnect it. Connect this pressure line to the “IN” port of the Perkins diverter valve. Connect the “OUT” port of the diverter valve back to the packer control valve where the pressure line originally was.
  • Page 12 The Perkins Diverter Valve Ordinarily, the diverter valve’s port “P” will feed the lifter. But, if you have two lifters, then you will use the Perkins Double Diverter Valve. It’s the same valve, except port “P” is plugged, and a 50/50 splitter valve is mounted on top.
  • Page 13 Tapping into the Tank Line There are two ways to run the oil back to tank. Perkins does not suggest allowing the return oil to get pushed back into the packer control valve, because this generates back pressure and heat.
  • Page 14 Adjusting the Perkins Hydraulics Adjusting the Speed Single Diverter: D63237s Double Diverter: D63411s This valve’s adjustment controls the flow going to the lifter. The flow controls the speed of the lifter. A typical 27k rotary lifter requires 3.5 gpm to achieve a 6-8 second cycle time.
  • Page 15 “chatter”. Adjusting one valve to be set differently than another should eliminate the problem. Example: Pump relief valve 2000 psi, packer relief valve 1900 psi, lifter relief valve 1650 psi. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20...
  • Page 16 If the lifter comes down too quickly, try turning this valve in clockwise ¼ turn at a time until the down direction is smooth and under control. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20 Creators of the TuckAway...

  • Page 20 If the truck is equipped to dump commercial containers, the lifter must be stored all the way down prior to engaging the commercial container or the cart lifter may be crushed by the container. This damage is not covered by warranty. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20...

  • Page 22: Troubleshooting Guide

    If the pressure falls, you may have internal leakage and the actuator should be repaired/rebuilt with new seals. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20 Creators of the TuckAway...
  • Page 23 On new installations, this is the result of having the pressure and tank lines reversed. Check and make sure that the pressure line goes to the “IN” port and the tank line goes to the “OUT” port. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292...
  • Page 24 Adjust the speed of the lifter to bring the cycle time to 6-8 seconds. Make sure the pressure is set no higher than 1950 psi. Make sure the lifter is not damaged. Bent or broken lifter parts can contribute to cart damage. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20...
  • Page 25 In this case, the lifter is most likely being operated too fast, or the carts are overweight. Excessively hard shaking of the carts by the operators can also lead to cart damage. Train your operators to operate the lifters properly. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:10/29/20...
