Maintenance
Binkley Jack
Every six months, lubricate the jack in the following manner:
1. Extend the leg approximately 2 inches from the fully retracted position.
2. Add
1
/4 pound molybdenum grease (with a temperature rating suitable for your
operating conditions) to each of the grease fittings. For 2-speed jacks there are two on
the gear leg, one on the swivel pad and one on the gear box. For single speed jacks
there is one on the gear leg and one on the swivel pad.
The following three sub-sections pertain to trailers with tilt decks-
Cushion Cylinder
The fluid in the cylinder should be changed if the cylinder has leaked or if the deck
action has become jerky or sluggish. Fully collapse the cylinder, and then remove the
filler plug and drain out the old fluid. Add 10W hydraulic fluid until the cylinder is full
and all the air has been expelled.
Deck Latch
The latch assembly is designed with replaceable, self-lubricating bushings at the
wear points. See the appropriate pages of the Parts section of this manual for further
information.
Should the deck develop a rattle, adjust the hook receiver assembly on the tilt deck.
Deck Hinge Assembly
The hinge assembly is highly stressed during loading and unloading, so check it for
cracked welds frequently.
Every six months, or sooner if service dictates, grease the deck hinges. Apply grease
to the fittings (one per side) until fresh grease becomes visible.
