The Main Frame Box contains the electrical and hydraulic systems. ✸ Full-size pump and motor unit ✸ A Pressure Relief Valve helps prevent overloading the platform.
■ A benefit of the dual cylinder design is a robust and more powerful liftgate. The G2 Series uses direct power on both sides of the platform so lifting and lowering is smooth, stable and even. Single-cylinder direct liftgates lift with power from only one side; the platform on a single-cylinder system can torque or twist.
