Maintenance
If air is drawn into the system
it may cause damage to the
hydraulic equipment.
NOTE
Every Day
• Check the reservoir oil level and top up if necessary.
First 50 hours
• For best practice and to maximise the life of system
equipment, the hydraulic oil should ideally be changed for
the rst time.
Every 3 Months
• All bolts attaching the PTO to the gearbox, the pump
to the PTO and the motor to the cargo pump are to be
checked and tightened where necessary.
• Check for external damage and possible bulging of hoses
under pressure. Replace worn hoses.
• Check for oil leaks in the system and tighten the pipeline
connections where necessary.
• Check the reservoir oil level and top up as required.
• Check the radiator for dirt and possible blockage. Blow
clear using compressed air.
Every 9 months
• Replace Filter Element.
Every 12 months
• Replace hydraulic oil. See page 7, point 4
Suction Hose
Special attention should be paid to the suction hose, Hydrapak
to hydraulic pump. A leak due to a damaged or loose connection
will allow air to be drawn into the system when it is operating and
very quickly damage the pump. The suction hose must be able to
withstand vacuum conditions up to 6” Hg.
Power Take O, Pump and Motor
