lubrication.
All ball bearings are sealed and lubricated for life, and moving parts
have self-lubricating bearings or are treated with grease. The hydraulic

An additive is added to the oil. The concentrate reduces friction and wear and
protects against corrosion. Pre-mixed hydraulic oil with additive is available from the
dealer. To ensure that the cylinder pipe is lubricated and thereby protected angainst
corrosion, it is important to lift the forks to top position frequently. The oil is suitable
for use in the temperature range -10° to +50° C. A thinner oil is recommended for
temperatures lower than -10° C (if necessary, contact your dealer).
