NOTE: A tester with a xed gauge cannot
be lled with oil by the operator.
1. Remove the bridge and all accessories.
2. Secure the tester (e.g. in a vice or other
suitable holding device if on-site) with
the coupler in the vertical position.
3. Connect the oil bottle via the quick
release coupler.
4. Loosen bottle cap (Fig 32).
5. Turn the handle anti-clockwise a few
turns then using the piston key provided
insert this into the groove on the piston.
Ensure the piston key outer slot is
nearer the piston body (Fig 33).
6. Force any air out of the system by
pushing the piston in fully then pull on
the piston key and handle until 10mm
away from the inside of the slot. This
will draw oil from the bottle (Fig 34).
7. Push the piston back in fully, pull out
again and repeat until all the air bubbles
are expelled into the bottle, the oil is
replenished, and piston is 10mm from
face of the body.
8. Remove oil bottle.
Ensure not to pull the piston
out further than 15mm.
Recommended oil:
Light Mineral DTE Type

Connecting and disconnecting Gauges
from the Tester body will eventually use up
the spare oil capacity and will not allow the
tester plunger to travel its full stroke or give
an accurate reading on the Gauge.
Check the oil
level frequently or
eventually the plunger
will stop at approx.
3mm from the edge
and the tester will not
function correctly.
