Warning:
Residual hydraulic pressure can produce a high pressure spray.
You could be cut by this spray or hydraulic fluid could be forced into your skin.
Do not continue with this procedure unless the system has been isolated from hydraulic
pressure for at least 20 minutes. Always be cautious when you loosen any hydraulic
connection or remove bolts or screws from any hydraulic component. Always allow fluid
pressure to dissipate slowly until completely vented before continuing to loosen. Always
wear gloves and appropriate eye protection.
11. Remove all accessible hydraulic hoses.
The system does not have hydraulic reservoirs that must be drained. However, each hose and
hard line will potentially have trapped oil in it. When removing the hydraulic components,
ensure that you have drain pans and towels available that are sufficient to handle the drain
volume of the item you are disconnecting. Use safe practices when removing hydraulic
components and allow any trapped or latent pressure to dissipate safely through a loosened
connection before removing the component. Cap each hose, port, and hardline component.
12. Dispose of all hydraulic fluid in accordance with all local codes regarding hazardous materials
handling and disposal.
13. Disconnect all cables from the controller.
14. Dispose of any electrical components in accordance with all local codes regarding hazardous
materials handling and disposal.
Warning:
Electrical components and parts can contain hazardous chemicals and compounds.
Improper disposal of hazardous chemicals and compounds can cause injury and death
to people, animals, and plants. In addition, it can cause contamination of the soil, air,
and water.
Always refer to local codes that govern the disposal of potentially hazardous materials
and follow these codes for the proper handling and disposal of these materials.
15. If desired, move the controller.
There are two configurations for the controller: contained in an upright console (perform Step
A) or floorstanding (perform Step B).
A. Upright consoles are lifted by an overhead lifting devise using supplied lift rings. If
necessary, install lift rings in the threaded bores at the top of the control cabinet. If not
already installed, the lift rings are typically stored inside the cabinet or in receptacles
at the rear of the cabinet. Rig and lift the cabinet and set aside.
