MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
The G746A has been manufactured to give maximum service with minimum care. In order that this may be accomplished, the
following recommendations should be followed:
1. The hydraulic system should be full of oil and free from air at
all times.
2. Keep excessive moisture and dirt out of air supply to prevent
wear of air valve, air cylinder and air piston.
3. Tool should be routinely inspected for oil leaks.
Use automatic transmission fluid Type “A” (no substitutes). Cherry®
Aerospace recommends using Dexron® III ATF.
