Check the fluid level. It should be 1/3 to 1/2 full. Note: For SunLift customers with an RC308 & 401 unit may be able to depressurize the system (See instructions below). For SunLift customers without this function, please contact your local dealer.
In about 90% of instances, this is battery related and appears to be failing under load. Batteries have a typical service life of 2-3 seasons. Make sure your battery is connected, free of corrosion on the posts and if you have a volt meter, a 12.8v-14.5v reading is a sign of a healthy battery. If the battery is reading normal, while connected to the volt meter, click ‘up’ or ‘down’ on the RC unit – If the reading is below 12v, the battery is not outputting enough to power the lift and will need to be replaced.
This is indicative of some sort of pressure loss in the system. Visually check the reservoir for fluid level and hoses leading to the pump. If there is fluid in the reservoir as well as visually inspect the lift for any kinks in the hose or visible leaks. Contact your dealer for service.
This could be indicative of air in the system or a lack of flow of hydraulic fluid. Check the reservoir for fluid level and hoses leading to the pump. If there is fluid in the reservoir, check the connections to the pump to ensure that they are fully seated in as well as visually inspect the lift for any kinks in the hose or visible leaks. If connections are sound and no leaks are present, contact your local dealer.
This can vary from lift-to-lift, however a general rule of thumb when the cylinders are retracted, fluid should be filled to 1.5”-2” from the top of the reservoir. Sunfluid should be a clear pink-ish color with no visible residue.
The recommended fluid for Sunstream boatlifts is our Sunfluid, which is a water-based proprietary fluid and can be purchased from any Sunstream dealer. Using another other fluid (such as vegetable oil, hydraulic fluid, or AFT) will void any existing warranty and has the potential to cause major problems to the system.
Please check the pump reservoir for fluid level. This could be indicative of a leak in the system. The fluid level should be between 1/3 and 2/3 full depending on lift model. If there is adequate fluid level, the hoses to the pump may not be fully seated in and may need to be re-attached. Note: For SunLift customers with an RC308 & 401 unit may be able to depressurize the system (See instructions in Manual). For SunLift customers without, please contact your local dealer.
