    How to fix a National 5600 Power Tool scraper that doesn't work under pressure?
    • B
      Brian MartinezAug 7, 2025
      If your National Power Tool scraper isn't working while the pump is generating pressure, it could be due to a severe blockage in the wheel drive motor hoses or defective wheel drive motors. Check the hoses for blockages and replace them if necessary. If the wheel drive motors are defective, contact the National Service Center.

    What to do if the hydraulic oil is very cloudy in my National 5600 Power Tool?

      Melissa ConnerAug 12, 2025
      If the hydraulic oil in your National Power Tool is very cloudy, it could be due to water entering the hydraulic tank, contamination with dirt, or air entering the circuit. If water has entered, repair the tank if necessary, then drain, clean the tank thoroughly, and change the oil. If the oil is contaminated with dirt, drain and thoroughly clean the tank, then change the oil. If air has entered the circuit, contact the National Service Center immediately, as excessive air can severely damage the pump. Stop the machine immediately!

    Why are there oil deposits on the driving wheels of my National 5600?

      Shelley BarnesAug 17, 2025
      If you notice oil deposits on the inner sides of the driving wheels of your National Power Tool, it could be due to worn-out shaft seals on the wheel motors or loose hose fittings. For worn shaft seals, have them replaced by a specialist. If the hose fittings are loose, tighten them. If the hose or fitting is damaged, replace it.

      Evelyn SimsAug 23, 2025
      If your National Power Tool machine is making an unusually loud hissing or whistling noise, it could be because fluid is passing over relief valves or there is air in the hydraulic circuit. If the noise is continuous, contact the National Service Center. If there is air in the hydraulic circuit, see Troubles 7 and 9.
