Filling with hydraulic oil

The hydraulic power pack is shipped without hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil (approx. 5 liters) is filled into the
tank before the power pack is switched on for the first time. In order to fill the hydraulic power pack with oil,
the oil-filler plug with vent filter (red) must be removed. The oil-filler plug with vent filter (red) must not be
replaced with a blanking plug. Do not fill the tank beyond the top edge of the sight glass!
The hydraulic unit is not filled with oil before shipment.
Unlubricated operation of the pumps is not permitted! Operating the hydraulic unit without hydraulic oil
will destroy the pump.
When filled with oil, the hydraulic power pack must always be positioned such that the oil-filler plug with
vent filter (red) is above the oil fill-level.
