Purging Bi-Rotational Pump #'s 2532, 2542, 2542KS, 3195KS
This procedure must be performed with the initial installation & running of the hydraulic system and
following installation of the pump assembly and jack(s).
This procedure applies only to systems that are equipped with the bi-rotational pump.
All electrical and hose connections must be completed before the purging process.
You must follow this procedure strictly. Any deviation from the process will cause the purging
process to become difficult and time consuming.
Fill the reservoir with automatic transmission fluid. (Multi-purpose or any of the Dexron fluids
•
Remove a fitting/plug that is installed on the retract side (hashed label) or attach a hose to the retract
•
side coupler (if present). Place into a clean container. This will allow retract side air to escape to
atmosphere.
Use the DOWN arrow button on the control panel to extend the jacks(s). Maintain the fluid level in
•
the reservoir between 1/4 and 1/2 full. Do not allow the reservoir to run empty.
•
If jacks(s) will not fully extend, crack loose the upper hose(s) at the jack(s) and run the pump to
extend until air is expelled. Use Caution - hydraulic fluid will be under high pressure.
Retighten the hoses and complete the extension of the jack(s). Maintain the fluid level as described
•
above.
Reinstall the fitting/plug into the retract side of the manifold or remove the hose attached to the
•
coupler. (See above)
Use the UP arrow buttons on the control panel to retract the jack(s). Maintain the fluid level as
•
above.
Do not fill the reservoir to full until after the legs are fully retracted.
•
If fluid in reservoir appears to be aerated/foaming, allow unit to rest until foam dissipates (approx. 10
•
minutes).
•
Fully extend and retract jacks a minimum of 3 times.
•
Allow any foam in the reservoir to dissipate as needed.
Maintain the fluid level in the reservoir as needed. Allowing 10 minutes between extend and retract
•
for air to dissipate.
The above purging process is for dealers and retail installation. High volume OEM installers may have
special procedures utilizing special equipment. Call Equalizer Systems for assistance.
