Why are my Wabtec Ricon S not functioning?

If your Wabtec Lifting Systems aren't functioning, several factors could be at play. First, check if there's an obstruction in the lifting frame and remove it, inspecting for damage. Ensure the backup pump manual release valve is turned clockwise until slightly snug. Also, verify the hydraulic fluid level is at the FULL mark while the platform is at ground level, adding Texaco 01554 Aircraft Hydraulic Oil or equivalent if needed. Finally, air trapped in the hydraulic system can cause issues; purge it by operating the lift through its maximum range for at least four complete cycles, using a service hoist or ramp if full travel isn't possible during normal use.
