MAINTAIN OIL LEVEL
Check hydraulic oil level every 30 hours of operation (sight gauge should be completely covered in
oil when all tools are retracted. Add TorcUP oil (Model # AO1 – 1 gallon) when necessary. Oil level
should be no more than 1” from top of reservoir plate – with cylinders retracted and motor off.
CLEAN OIL INTAKE SCREEN ONCE A YEAR
Loosen and remove reservoir plate bolts. Lift pump unit off the reservoir, being careful not to damage
the gasket.
Applies to 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 gallon reservoirs:
Remove the ve allen socket head cap screws, securing the screen to the 1st stage gear pump. Care
should be taken not to remove the center plate and gears. Remove and clean with nonammable
solvent, blow dry clean. Reinstall in reverse order and torque bolts to 75 inch pounds. Keep the motor
and pump as clean as possible.
Applies to the 5 and 10 gallon reservoirs:
Unscrew screen from bottom of pump unit and clean
with nonammable solvent. Blow dry and reassemble.
Keep areas around pump unobstructed to provide good
air ow around the motor and pump. Keep the motor
and pump as clean as possible.
FLUSH THE PUMP
If you suspect your pump has been contaminated or
discover sludge or other deposits on internal
components, you should thoroughly ush the pump.
Remove the old oil from the reservoir, then thoroughly
clean the reservoir and rell with a clean, nonammable
ushing oil. Reassemble the pump and motor to the
reservoir.
Run the pump in no load condition for 1 or 2 minutes maximum. Unplug the pump and remove the
motor and pump assembly again. Now drain the ushing oil and re-clean the inside of the reservoir.
(Make sure ushing uid is also drained from pump assembly). Reassemble the pump and rell the
reservoir with TorcUP hydraulic oil and reassemble the pump.
