HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC (ALL MODELS)
FIGURE 6:
These pumps are driven by reversible motors and are primarily used to power double-acting cylinders in both
directions. Locking checks that hold the load in either direction are standard.
Table 1 – Hydraulic Oil Specifications
If the lift will be used at normal ambient temperatures, Presto-ECOA Lifts supplies the unit with Conoco
Super Hydraulic 32 oil. This may be replaced by any other good quality oil with 150 SSU at 100° F
and rust and oxidation inhibitors and anti-wear properties.
If the lift will be used at ambient temperatures below 0°F, use aircraft hydraulic oil. Use Type 15
aircraft hydraulic oil.
Most of the problems with hydraulic systems are caused by contamination in the oil.
BI-DIRECTIONAL PUMPS
The following are equivalent to Conoco Super Hydraulic 32:
TYPE
AW32 ................................. CITGO
DTE 24 ............................. EXXON/MOBIL
NUTO H32 ........................ EXXON/MOBIL
AMOCO AW32 .................. CHEVRON (AMOCO CO.)
It is very important to keep the hydraulic oil free of dirt,
dust, metal chips, water, and other contamination.
