Common Tail Lift Faults We Repair

Commercial tail lifts operate in demanding conditions every day. Heavy loading cycles, adverse weather and continual commercial use naturally result in wear and occasional failures.


Our engineers regularly diagnose and repair:

Hydraulic Leaks

Hydraulic leaks can significantly reduce lifting performance and eventually prevent safe operation.


We repair:


  • Hydraulic hoses
  • Cylinders
  • Pipework
  • Seals
  • Valves
  • Hydraulic fittings


Repairing hydraulic faults early often prevents more expensive repairs later.


Electrical Faults

Electrical problems can leave a tail lift completely inoperable.


We regularly diagnose:


  • Wiring faults
  • Damaged switches
  • Water ingress
  • Blown fuses
  • Faulty relays
  • Control box failures
  • Battery supply issues


Using specialist diagnostic equipment, we identify faults quickly and restore reliable operation.


Platform Damage

Commercial tail lift platforms experience constant loading and unloading, making accidental damage inevitable over time.



We assess structural damage carefully before recommending the safest and most cost-effective repair.


Power Pack Problems

If your tail lift lifts slowly, struggles under load or has stopped operating altogether, the hydraulic power pack may require attention.



We'll inspect the complete hydraulic system before carrying out repairs.

Lift Ram Repairs

Leaking cylinders and worn hydraulic seals commonly affect lifting performance.


Our engineers repair or replace worn components to restore reliable operation.


Control System Faults

Modern tail lifts rely on electronic safety systems to protect operators.


We diagnose faults involving:


  • Hand controls
  • Foot switches
  • Safety interlocks
  • Electronic control units
  • Emergency stop systems
