It serves as a spring steel helper that assists the hydraulic system when raising and lowering the platform, making operation smoother and reducing pump stress. Over time, a torsion bar can weaken, crack, or break, causing the gate to struggle or lift unevenly. Replacing it restores balanced performance and helps prevent damage to other components.
