2. W hen forks reach total down position, v alve is flushed. Repeat if necessary.
8.2 Lubrication
Check oil level annually by removing oil plug found on top of pump housing. When changing or adding oil, fill the tank through the oil plug screw hole to 80% capacity with hydraul ic jack oil, about 2” deep in pum p housing, see Figure
7. Do not use any other ty pe of oil.
1. Set lever in NEUTRAL position, Figure 5.
2. Turn cam nut while pumping the handle, Figure 6.
3. When lifting stops, give the nut one more turn.
4. The cam nut is properly adjusted when pumping the handle in NEUTRAL position causes no movement of the hydraulic ram.
Figure 7
6
There is one grease fitting (#55B, section
10.1.1) loc ated on the table. Lubricate t his point
on a semi-annual basis. Wheel bearings are sealed and require no
lubrication. The crank shaft features Oil Lite bushings which al so require no lubrication.
Lightly oil all other m ov ing par ts.
