GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTION
•
Following are some instructions for operating hydraulic equipment:
•
Never work on the hydraulic system while it is under pressure.
•
Hydraulic equipment should always be kept as clean as possible.
•
Always clean the power pack before servicing, and always work on the unit with clean hands.
•
If you wish to paint the equipment, tape off all moving parts; flexible connections and nameplate.
•
Before mounting the power pack, please check for correct positioning, ambient temperature,
operating voltage, etc.
•
Do not use pipe dope, tape or sealing compound as they will cause problems.
•
Do not direct high pressure water to power pack when cleaning the truck.
Please check the following points;
•
Check power pack for any damage during shipment.
•
Check the direction of rotation of the motor. Pump will be damaged if the rotation is wrong.
•
Cleanliness is very important when filling the reservoir. Use only clean and fresh hydraulic oil.
•
Always recheck the oil level after using the unit and refill if necessary.
•
Avoid getting air into the hydraulic system. If you do, it is very important to remove all the air from
the system.
•
The air must be removed at the highest point of the hydraulic system. There is usually a relief screw.
•
Energize the power pack and actuate each of the valves to be sure they are operating properly.
•
Please check the operating temperature regularly. It should not increase by more than -15˚C to
+70˚C.

Check the new power pack for any leakage after short period of time. Tighten any fittings that may
be leaking.
