Remedy
1 Check for binding or tight chains. Ensure that the platform/crate is not touching any
other part of the race work or concrete pad (there may be a build up of dung, mud
or stones).
2 Check that the load bar feet are sitting evenly on the pad. There should be no
stones or dung under the rubber feet or between the load bar housing and rubber
feet. All 4 load bar feet should be firmly in contact with the ground.
3 Check pinning/anchoring. Bolt holes that are misaligned will put a residual load on
the load bars. It may be necessary to enlarge the mounting holes in the platform or
crate to improve the alignment.
1 Moisture in the load bar connectors. Moisture can be removed from the plugs and
caps using methylated spirits, ethyl alcohol, or a suitable electrical contact cleaner.
Stronger spirits should not be used, as they react with the plastic.
2 Damaged cable. Return for service.
3 Moisture in load bars. Return for service.
Damaged cable. Return for service.
