SP-7XE/F Full-Rise Scissor Lift 46 P/N 5900010 — Rev. B3 — September 2023
Fill the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir
The Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir on the Power Unit must be filled with Hydraulic Fluid or automatic
transmission fluid before you begin normal operation of the Lift. When you receive the Lift, the
Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir is empty. The Power Unit will not work correctly until it is filled with approved
fluids.
The Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir holds 3.5 – 3.7 gallons (13.25 – 14 liters) of fluid, depending on the
Power Unit.
⚠ WARNING Do not run your Power Unit without Hydraulic Fluid; you will damage it.
Approved Hydraulic Fluids are any general-purpose ISO-32, ISO-46, or ISO-68 hydraulic oil or
approved automatic transmission fluids such as Dexron III, Dexron VI, Mercon V, Mercon LV, Shell
Tellus S4 / S3 / S2, or any synthetic multi-vehicle automatic transmission fluid.
To fill the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir:
1. Remove the Reservoir Cap from the top of the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir and set it aside.
Take care to keep contaminants out of the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir.
2. If the Hydraulic Fluid Reservoir is not full, use a clean funnel with a 60-micron filter to fill it with
approved fluid.
The Reservoir holds approximately 3.5 gallons / 13.25 liters of Hydraulic Fluid.
3. When the Reservoir is filled, put the Reservoir Cap back on.
Important: Typically, the Platforms are up on the first Safety Lock at this point. Keep in mind that
you will need to refill the Reservoir during the Operational Test. The Hydraulic Cylinders
and Hydraulic Hoses will take up a considerable amount of fluid. If you have installed
longer Hydraulic Hoses, then more than the specified typical amount will be required.
