• The PT Tech HPTO requires simple
routine service by maintaining the
proper oil level in the hydraulic tank and
by replacing the oil filter when required
as described above. It is imperative to
check the hydraulic oil level daily and
replenish as needed. The oil must be
checked with the clutch disengaged and
the engine off in a cooled condition to
get a true oil level reading, as heat will
cause the oil to expand.
• Every 500 hours of operation check all
HPTO bolted connections and hydraulic
connections.
• The HPTO must be inspected and
serviced after 5000 hours of operation.
Read the PT Tech manual for more
information.
• The PT Tech HPTO manifold has a
pressure relief valve located on the right
side of the manifold. The pressure relief
valve should be removed every 100
hours of operation and cleaned with
pressurized air. Remove the relief valve
using a 7/8” wrench and clean the end of
the valve with pressurized air. At the
same time, clean the hole in the manifold
using pressurized air blowing inside the
hole.
