Notes on installation of hydraulic tailboards
Before installing a hydraulic tailboard, the permissible rear axle load and minimum front axle load should be checked by means of a calculation to determine the distribution of weight.

The installation of a hydraulic tailboard on series production panel vans is not permissible without a special permit from the factory. The installation of a chair lift with a load capacity of max. 300 kg is possible.

If a chassis cab is ordered, which is later to be fitted with an electro-hydraulic tailboard, we recommend the following options: Heavy duty alternator and heavy duty battery.

If ordering the chassis for equipping with an electrohydraulic liftgate, we recommend using the additional battery (PR no.: 8FB).

For installation of the hydraulic tailboard, the chassis should be supplemented with an assembly frame (see note on assembly frames).
