Chapter 1 - Safety

Safety 1
Please Read the Following Carefully! This portion of the manual contains information regarding all Stellar manufactured X-Tra­Lifts. Some items contained within this chapter may not apply to your specific equipment.
Safety should be the number one thought on every operator’s mind. Three factors should exist for safe operation: a qualified operator, well-maintained equipment, and the proper use of this equipment. The following information should be read and understood completely by everyone working with or near the X-Tra-Lift before putting the unit into operation.
Please take note that Stellar Industries, Inc. is not liable for accidents incurred by the X-Tra-Lift because of non-fulfillment from the operator’s side of current rules, laws, and regulations.
ATTENTION
Never allow anyone to ride the
X-Tra-Lift or load.
protective glasses, and reflective jackets with breathing apparatus. Consult your employer regarding current safety regulations and accident-prevention equipment.
Do not wear rings, wristwatch, jewelry, loose-fitting or hanging clothing such as ties, torn garments, scarves, unbuttoned jackets or unzipped overalls, which could get caught up in the moving parts of the X-Tra­Lift.
Keep a first-aid box and a fire extinguisher readily available on the truck. Regularly check to make sure the fire extinguisher is fully charged and the first-aid kit is stocked.
GENERAL
It is the responsibility of the owner to instruct the operator in the safe operation of your equipment and to provide the operator with properly maintained equipment.
Trainees or untrained persons shall be under the direct supervision of qualified persons.
Do not operate equipment under the adverse influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Keep clear of all moving parts.
Always wear the prescribed personal safety devices.
Always wear approved accident-
evention clothing such as: protective
pr helmets, anti-slip shoes with steel toes, protective gloves, anti-noise headphones,
Do not use controls and hoses as handholds. These parts move and cannot provide stable support.
Never allow anyone to ride the X-Tra-Lift or load.
ATTENTION
Maintain good visual sight lines
when operating the lift. Be aware
of any potential conflicts during
operation.
MAINTENANCE SAFETY
Never modify or alter any of the equipment, whether mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic, without explicit approval from Stellar Industries.
Do not perform any maintenance or repair work on the X-T
ra-Lift unless authorized and
2 X-Tra-Lift 2000 Owner’s Manual
trained to do so.
Release system pressure before attempting to make any adjustments or repairs.
Decals are considered safety equipment. They must be maintained, as would other safety devices. Do not remove any decals. Replace any decals that are missing, damaged, or not legible.
The safety instruction plates, notices, load charts and any other sticker applied to the X-Tra-Lift or service body must be kept legible and in good condition. If necessary, replace them.
ATTENTION
LOAD SAFETY
Know the weight of the load being lifted. Do not rely on the overload device to determine maximum rated loads.
Do not leave a X-Tra-Lift load suspended or unattended.
Do not walk under suspended loads.
Do not position any load over a person nor should any person be permitted to place him or herself under a load.
Do not use the lift to drag a load.
Do not use the X-Tra-Lift to push downward onto anything.
ATTENTION
Do not position any load over a
person nor should any person be
permitted to place himself or her-
self under a load.
STABILITY
Know the X-Tra-Lift components and their capabilities and limitations. Overloading the X-Tra-Lift may result in serious injury to self and others, and damage to the equipment and immediate surroundings.
Never exceed manufacturer’s load ratings. These ratings are based on the machine’s hydraulic, mechanical, and structural design rather than stability.
The supporting surface under the truck must be able to support the weight of the machine and its load.
Never use the lift to move people. It
is not designed as a personnel lift
and should never be used in this
manner.
ENVIRONMENT
Do not operate the X-Tra-Lift during electrical storms.
In dusty work areas, every effort must be taken to keep dust and sand out of the moving parts of the machinery.
In high humidity work areas, keep parts as dry as possible and well lubricated.

surroundings.

Chapter 2 - Operation

Operating the Lift

1. Prior to operating the lift, park on flat and level ground.
Unload
2. Set the parking brake.
3. Lower the tailgate.
Operation 3
4. Check for overhead obstructions (i.e. wires, limbs, building overhangs, etc.).
5. Check to make sure the area behind the truck is clear, and free of people, pets or any other obstructions.
6. Make sure control pendant wire is fully extended and not tangled or wrapped in the structure of the lift in any way.
7. Make sure the container is free of obstructions, and is clear to lift from the truck bed.
8. Press and hold the “unload” button to cycle the lift out of the truck. The lift is sta­ble throughout the load/unload cycle. It can be set on a higher platform or truck bed safely for loading as long as the lift is in complete contact with the mated sur­face. Continue through the “unload” cycle until you have reached your
NOTE:
Once the lift is in the stowed position, check the load and any load binding devices to make sure they have not shift­ed or loosened during the lifting process. When driving with a loaded container, be aware that the bulk of the load may obscure your vision from the cab. Also be
e that the weight of the load will
awar affect your vehicle’s stopping distance and center of gravity. Stop periodically to inspect and/or tighten any load retaining devices as necessary.

desired loading surface. The lift will not travel past its pre-set bottom point but will stop travel at a designated level. Do not continue to depress the “unload” button when the lift “limits out” or makes contact with a solid surface. Release the “unload” button when the lift makes complete contact with the ground, loading dock, etc.
9. Load your cargo safely. Remember to bind top-heavy loads with a minimum of two ratchet straps, suitable chain­binders, or other appropriately rated cargo retention devices. Load heavy items into the center of the container whenever possible. It is much safer and will extend the life of your lift. If the load extends beyond the length of the con­tainer, you must secur er by means of an appr ratchet-strap or chain binder.
10. To return the container to the truck bed,
press the “load” button on the pendant control. Again, check to make sur there ar the lift. Once the lift reaches its stowed position, release the “load” button and safely stow or remove the control pen dant. Never leave the pendant in a position for others to operate it without your control or consent.

Detaching the Container

1. Park the truck on flat, level ground. This is critical if you desire to remove the con­tainer.
2. Set the parking brake.
3. Lower the tailgate.
4. Check for obstructions, both on the ground and above the lift.
5. Press and hold the “unload” button and cycle the lift until it makes complete contact with the ground.
6. Remove the two steel retaining pins (one per side) at the forward end of the container retention blocks. Keep them in a safe place such as the console or glove-box of the vehicle.
7. Press the “unload” button briefly until
both retention blocks drop free from the carrier. Mark exactly where your vehicle is parked. To reattach your carrier, it is necessary to be at the correct distance from the carrier to mate the retention blocks to the container.
8. Release the parking break. Drive ahead a few inches. Re-depress parking brake fully.
9. Set the parking break.
10. Press “load” button on the control pen-
dant, until the lift structure, minus the carrier, is in the fully retracted position.
ATTENTION
Never operate your vehicle unless
the lift is in the stowed position, with
or without the container. The only
exception occurs during step #8 of
Detaching the Container.
For further operating instructions, or for questions about operation, please contact your nearest X-Tra-Lift dealer or the manufacturer.

Chapter 3 - Maintenance

Inspect the fluid level of the hydraulic reser-
It is recommended to inspect and
service the X-Tra-Lift periodically.
Please use the following recom-
mendations to ensure long and
trouble-free service from your
X-Tra-Lift.
INSPECTION
Every six months, inspect the joints and pivot points of your lift. Be alert for any cracks, rust, or chipped paint in these areas as they may indicate structural failure. If cracks are found, take the lift out of service immediately. This is a high-quality, well-built product. Such fail­ures are not anticipated, but should be checked for regardless. Also inspect the car­rier at this interval for similar cracks.
any failure to the factory or a factory­approved distributor immediately and do not use the lift until repaired.
Report
voir weekly. It should be filled to the recom­mended level. Do not overfill the reservoir. Use only approved hydraulic fluid. Stellar rec­ommends Petro-Canada HYDREX 32 (ISO 32) fluid or equivalent.
Do not operate the lift if the fluid level is excessively low. This will risk introducing air into the hydraulic system which requires a lengthy bleed-out process and potential seal damage. Inspect the lift structure and frame cross­member bolts every six months. Re-torque any loose bolts immediately. If bolts repeat­edly require tightening, report this situation to the factory or a factory-approved distributor.
Inspect all wires and control pendant for signs of fraying or exposed wiring monthly.
Maintenance 5
Inspect hydraulic hoses and fittings monthly for signs of leakage. If leaks are found, call the factory for replacement hoses and/or appropriate fittings. Hoses are tightened to approximately 45 in-lbs. at the factory. If leaks are present, check to make sure hoses are tightened to that specification with an appropriate torque wrench. Over-tightening will only worsen a hydraulic leak. Do not over-tighten fittings.
ATTENTION
An important item in preserving
the long life of the X-Tra-Lift is
keeping dirt, grime, and corrosive
material out of the working parts.
Thoroughly wash and grease the
X-Tra-Lift periodically.
SERVICE
The following general suggestions should be helpful in analyzing and servicing your X-Tra-Lift. Using the following systematic approach should be helpful in finding and fixing problems:
1. Determine the problem.
2. List and record possible causes.
3. Devise checks.
4. Conduct checks in a logical order to determine the cause.
5. Consider the remaining service life of components against the cost of parts and labor necessary to r
6. Make the necessary repair.
7. Recheck to ensure that nothing has been overlooked.
8. Functionally test the new part in its sys­tem.

Limited Warranty Statement
Stellar Industries, Inc. (Stellar) warrants products designed and manufactured by Stellar to be free from defects in material and workmanship under proper use and maintenance. Products must be installed and operated in accordance with Stellar’s written instructions and capacities. The warranty period shall cover the following:
Twelve (12) month warranty on parts from the date recorded by Stellar as the in-service date, not to extend beyond twenty-four (24) months from date of manufacture, Twelve (12) month repair labor from the date recorded by Stellar as the in-service date, not to extend beyond twenty-four (24) month from date of manufacture, and Thirty-six (36) month warranty on all Stellar Crane and Hooklift structural parts from the date recorded by Stellar as the in-service date, not to extend beyond forty-eight (48) months from date of manufacture.
The in-service date will be derived from the completed warranty registration card. In the event a warranty registration card is not received by Stellar, the factory ship date will be used.
Stellar’s obligation under this warranty is limited to, and the sole remedy for any such defect shall be, the repair and/or replacement (at Stellar’s option) of the unaltered part and/or component in question. Stellar after-sales service personnel must be notified by telephone, fax, or letter of any warranty-applicable damage within fourteen (14) days of its occurrence. If at all possible, Stellar will ship the replacement part within 24­hours of notification by the most economical, yet expedient, means possible. Expedited freight delivery will be at the expense of the owner.
Warranty claims must be submitted and shall be processed in accordance with Stellar’s established warranty claim procedure. Stellar after-sales service personnel must be contacted prior to any warranty claim. A return materials authorization (RMA) account number must be issued to the claiming party prior to the return of any warranty parts. Parts returned without prior authorization will not be recognized for warranty consideration. All damaged parts must be returned to Stellar freight prepaid; freight collect returns will be refused. Freight reimbursement of returned parts will be considered as part of the warranty claim.
Warranty service will be performed by any Stellar new equipment distributor, or by any Stellar-recognized service center authorized to service the type of product involved, or by the Stellar factory in the event of a direct sale. At the time of requesting warranty service, the owner must present evidence of date of delivery of the product. The owner shall be obligated to pay for any overtime labor requested of the servicing company by the owner, any field service call charges, and any towing and/or transportation charges associated with moving the equipment to the designated repair/service provider.
All obligations of Stellar and its authorized dealers and service providers shall be voided if someone other than an authorized Stellar dealer provides other than routine maintenance service without prior written approval from Stellar. In the case repair work is performed on a Stellar­manufactured product, original Stellar parts must be used to keep the warranty in force. The warranty may also be voided if the product is modified or altered in any way not approved, in writing, by Stellar.
The owner/operator is responsible for furnishing proof of the date of original purchase of the Stellar product in question. Warranty registration is the ultimate responsibility of the owner and may be accomplished by the completion and return of the Stellar product registration card provided with the product. If the owner is not sure of registration, he is encouraged to contact Stellar at the address below to confirm registration of the product in question. This warranty covers only defective material and workmanship. It does not cover depreciation or damage caused by normal wear and tear, accident, mishap, untrained operators, or improper or unintended use. The owner has the obligation of performing routine care and maintenance duties as stated in Stellar’s written instructions, recommendations, and specifications. Any damage resulting from owner/operator failure to perform such duties shall void the coverage of this warranty. The owner will pay the cost of labor and supplies associated with routine maintenance.
The only remedies the owner has in connection with the breach or performance of any warranty on the Stellar product specified are those set above. In no event will Stellar, the Stellar distributor/dealer, or any company affiliated with Stellar be liable for business interruptions, costs of delay, or for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential costs or damages. Such costs may include, but are not limited to, loss of time, loss of revenue, loss of use, wages, salaries, commissions, lodging, meals, towing, hydraulic fluid, or any other incidental cost.
All products purchased by Stellar from outside vendors shall be covered by the warranty offered by that respective manufacturer only. Stellar does not participate in, or obligate itself to, any such warranty.
Stellar reserves the right to make changes in design or improvement upon its products without imposing upon itself the same upon its products theretofore manufactured.
This warranty will apply to all Stellar Hooklifts, Stellar Service Trucks, & Truck-mounted Cranes shipped from Stellar’s factory after July 1, 2005. The warranty is for the use of the original owner only and is not transferable without prior written permission from Stellar.
THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. REMEDIES UNDER THIS WARRANTY ARE LIMITED TO THE PROVISION OF MATERIAL AND SERVICES, AS SPECIFIED HEREIN. STELLAR INDUSTRIES, INC. IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
