The mechanism for raising and lowering the KamAZ platform includes:
— raising and lowering the platform;
- stop it in any intermediate position during lifting or lowering;
— automatic limitation of the maximum angle of climb;
— automatic pressure limitation in the hydraulic system.
The control of the mechanism for raising and lowering the KamAZ platform is an electro-pneumatic remote control with switches installed on the instrument panel in the cockpit.

The KamAZ hydraulic lifting mechanism consists of a power take-off box, an oil pump, a hydraulic cylinder, a control valve, a platform lift limiting valve, electro-pneumatic valves, an oil tank with a filter and a pneumatic-hydraulic drive system.
In addition to these unified components, the platform lifting mechanism of the Kamaz-55102 dump truck has a locking device designed to connect the tractor hydraulics with the trailer hydraulics, and a hydraulic distributor that directs the flow of the truck. Oil in the hydraulic cylinder of a tractor or trailer hydraulic cylinder. The valve is connected to the control valve.
