SERVICE AND REPAIR
LUBRICATION
Refer to gure 3-1 for the location of items that require lubrication service. Use an aerosol chain
lubricant for all components to be lubricated.
CASTERS
Using a grease gun, apply 1 or 2 shots of multi-purpose bearing grease to each zerk tting. Swivel
casters have two zerk ttings, one at the wheel bearing and one at the swivel.
CHAINS
1. Ensure that the platform is fully lowered.
2. Apply enough aerosol chain lubricant to exposed section of chain to allow lubricant to run down
chain.
SCREW JACKS
Apply a moderate amount of aerosol chain lubricant to each screw jack assembly.
HYDRAULIC OIL RESERVOIR
To change oil in the reservoir, rstly verify that the platform is fully lowered.
1. Remove the hydraulic reservoir from the pump by removing four screws and four grip plates.
2. Provide a suitable container as an ideal reservoir for a 5.7 litres (1.5 U.S. gallon) capacity and
dispose of hydraulic uid properly. Contact local oil recyclers for more information.
NOTE: Ensure the o-ring is in place on the pump when installing the hydraulic reservoir.
3. Reinstall hydraulic reservoir to pump assembly with grip plates and screws.
