(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.

Minimum height is 25” up to 26". The mounting plate itself should be vertical and level. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:7/12/2021...
- Page 11 Dimensions shown above are an example only and will vary from truck to truck Perkins recommends adding steel structural tube across the entire length of the load sill. This tube becomes the new load sill.
- Page 12 Double check the hook height to the ground. If everything appears satisfactory, the lifter’s mounting plate and supports may be welded fully. The mechanical portion of the installation is complete. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:7/12/2021...

Note: Be careful not to cut into the original load sill or else the structural integrity of the tailgate can be compromised. It may be necessary to add custom structure reinforcements where the lifter is to be mounted. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292... - Page 14 That is normal. Note: The size and shape of the bumper extension can vary depending on your fabrication preferences.

Page 17: Non-Perkins Hydraulics
Perkins would like to take this opportunity to remind you to check the quality of your hydraulic oil periodically and make sure it meets your standards. Oil that is maintained in good condition will help your equipment last longer. - Page 18 (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...
- Page 19 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 20 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 21 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 22: Adjusting The Perkins Hydraulics
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 23 “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.

Step 4: Lower the cart by reversing the hand valve handle (pushing down), until the cart is safely returned to the ground and the lifter has disengaged the cart. Step 5: Remove the empty cart and repeat the process as needed. Perkins Manufacturing Company 800-882-5292 Revised:7/12/2021... - Page 31 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:7/12/2021...

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:7/12/2021 Creators of the TuckAway... - Page 35 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 36 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:7/12/2021...
- Page 37 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:7/12/2021...
