SECTION 4.0: MAINTENANCE
The puller unit requires routine checking and periodic preventative maintenance to ensure safe, trouble-free operation.
No special maintenance is required. The following maintenance actions are suggested.
4.1 GENERAL CLEANING
1. Keep the outer surfaces of the puller unit free of dirt and grime. If hydraulic hoses require cleaning, refer
to Section 2.1 for important safety considerations.
2. Keep all hose connections free of dirt and grime. Install protective caps whenever a hose connection is
disengaged.
4.2 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
1. Whenever the puller is to be stored for longer than 2 weeks, maintain a thin coat of 10-weight oil on the
outside of black oxide surfaces to prevent rusting.
4.3 LUBRICATION
1. There is no internal lubrication requirement for the puller unit.
4.4 INSPECTION
1. Inspect the puller for cracks, leaks, or other damage before each use. Repair and replace immediately.
2. Inspect safety labels (refer to Section 2.0 for required labels) before each use. If any are missing or
illegible, replace immediately.
Disconnect the PowerPak from the air supply before performing
any maintenance or repair procedures.
