and 2000 lbs |

Extruded Aluminum
sliders are standard on all Rail Gate models.
The sliders feature polyethylene wear pads and
operate smoothly with only lightweight oil. Using
grease - which can congeal or attract road grit
- is not recommended. |

The standard Safety
Trip Bar, located below the Rail Gate's enclosed
hydraulic and electrical systems, will immediately
stop the upward movement of the platform if any
object becomes trapped between the platform and
the liftgate frame. Tommy Gate's Rail Gate Safety
Trip Bar is standard safety equipment, exclusive
to its class. |
|
Standard on all
models of the Rail Gate Series (except GBR models
and some optional depths), the cam arm system
powers the platform close. |
|
The Curb-side
Fixed Control has a toggle style switch with a
steel shield. To help prevent unauthorized use,
the timer deactivates the control 90 seconds after
last operation. |

Each Rail Gate
features a pin and lock system for the platform
latch. The removable pin allows the platform latch
to be locked with the platform closed and secured
when desired. |
