To do a check of the hydraulic oil
level
WARNING:

under pressure can have sufficient force
to penetrate the skin, causing serious
injury. If injured by escaping fluid, see
a doctor at once. Serious infection
or reaction can develop if proper
medical treatment is not administered
immediately.
Note: Use a small quantity of lubrication. Remove
all unwanted lubricant and make sure that there is no
