* Depending on vehicle
Robust lifting mechanism for precise movements
The durable lifting mechanism with one lifting and one tilting cylinder, combined with Q8 Heller T15 hydraulic oil, ensures stable and precise platform movements during lifting and lowering. All steel components are KTL-coated for optimal corrosion protection – ensuring long service life and reliable performance in daily operation.
Lightweight aluminium platform for daily use
The AluLite 30 aluminium platform combines high stability with low weight. Its slip-resistant standard surface with simple cross-milling (R10) ensures secure grip during loading and unloading. Standard equipment includes a 900 mm roll-stop, warning flags, a bridging plate, and an illuminated license plate holder – for safe and comfortable operation in everyday distribution transport.
Wireless operation with remote control
The Remote Control BT enables tail lift operation via Bluetooth 5.0. Due to bidirectional communication, commands are transmitted and confirmed securely – ensuring convenient and safe operation around the vehicle.
Reliable control with MBB Control
MBB Control is the central control unit of the tail lift, connecting all key components for precise and responsive movement sequences. The processor-based control system enables individual software adjustments for various vehicle and application requirements. Integrated diagnostic functions support quick error analysis and ensure maximum reliability in daily operation.
Optional Features
Removable ball-head coupling
An optional mounting kit with removable ball-head coupling is available. This allows the vehicle to be used for trailer operation when required – providing greater flexibility and extended application possibilities in daily transport operations.
Optional platform coatings
Depending on the application requirements, various platform coatings are available. In addition to the standard surface with simple cross-milling (R10), options include double cross-milling for increased slip resistance and a synthetic coating that provides additional surface protection, reduced noise levels, and a durable, low-maintenance finish.
Protective features for long-lasting platform durability
Additional protective bars for warning lights and foot switches reliably protect components from damage. These protective options enhance platform durability and reduce maintenance effort – even in demanding working environments.
Increased safety through warning lights
Warning lights mounted on the platform enhance visibility during operation, improving safety for both the driver and the surrounding environment. They are optionally available with a protective bracket that provides additional protection against damage.
Flexible operating options
In addition to the standard Remote Control BT, various control units are available – from the Slim Control Panel in three versions to 3+1 control buttons, wanderlead controls, and foot switches. This allows each tail lift to be perfectly adapted to its specific area of application.
Individual software options
Various software options are available for additional functions or specific application requirements. These allow customised control adjustments, such as QuickDown – reducing lowering time through combined lowering and opening movements for greater comfort, efficiency, and safety in daily operation.
Alternative hydraulic oils
Depending on the operating environment, different hydraulic oils can be selected. AeroShell Fluid ensures reliable performance at temperatures down to –40 °C, while the biodegradable bio oil offers an environmentally friendly option for everyday use.
