Common Tail Lift Faults We Repair

Commercial tail lifts work hard every day, often operating in demanding environments and harsh weather conditions. Wear and tear, accidental damage and component failures are all common.


Our engineers regularly repair the following faults.

Hydraulic Leaks

Hydraulic leaks are one of the most common causes of poor lifting performance.


We repair:


  • Damaged hoses
  • Leaking cylinders
  • Worn seals
  • Hydraulic valves
  • Pipework
  • Hydraulic fittings


Addressing hydraulic issues early helps prevent more extensive repairs later.

Electrical Faults

Electrical faults can stop a tail lift operating without warning.


Common issues include:


  • Faulty switches
  • Wiring faults
  • Water ingress
  • Damaged control boxes
  • Blown fuses
  • Relay failures
  • Battery supply problems


Our engineers use specialist diagnostic equipment to identify faults quickly and restore safe operation.


Platform Damage

Commercial platforms experience constant loading and unloading.


If your platform has suffered accidental impact damage or structural wear, we'll assess the safest and most appropriate repair solution.

Power Pack Problems

Slow lifting, inconsistent movement or complete lifting failure can often be traced back to the hydraulic power pack.


We'll inspect the complete hydraulic system before recommending the most effective repair.

Lift Ram Repairs

Hydraulic cylinders naturally wear over time.



We repair leaking rams, damaged seals and associated hydraulic components to restore smooth lifting performance.

Control System Faults

Tail lifts rely on numerous safety systems to protect operators.


We diagnose faults involving:


  • Handheld controls
  • Foot switches
