If there is any leakage from the open port, remove the lift
cylinder for repair. Repeat the procedure to check the

Diesel fuel or hydraulic fluid under pressure
can penetrate skin or eyes, causing serious
injury or death. Fluid leaks under pressure may
not be visible. Use a piece or cardboard or
wood to find leaks. Do not use your bare hand.
Wear safety goggles. If fluid enters skin or eyes,
get immediate medical attention from a
physician familiar with this injury.
