Maintenance and Storage
- Inspect all hydraulic lines for kinking or abrasion prior to use.
- Inspect all hydraulic fittings for leaks and proper tightness prior to each use.
- CAUTION: If disconnecting the hydraulic lines, please read the following:
o Hydraulic lines are always pressurized; therefore, disconnecting them will cause a
sudden high pressure release. This high pressure release may cause oil leakage from
the lines and/or fittings. With the lines depressurized, the unit must be supported;
otherwise it will fall to the fully deployed position. This may result in damage to the
unit as well as bodily harm.
- Inspect all electrical connections to ensure that they are secure and free of corrosion every 3
months.
- Inspect all fasteners for proper tightness after every 100 cycles to ensure that the Power-Pole
shallow water anchor is in safe working condition.
o Note: All 5/16” bolts (1/2” wrench) should be tightened to 4 ft•lbs (48 in•lbs) of
torque, and all 3/8” bolts (9/16” wrench) should be tightened to 7 ft•lbs (84 in•lbs)
of torque.
- Ensure that the Green Marine biodegradable hydraulic fluid level is within the indicator marks
on the reservoir at all times.
- Thoroughly rinse all moving parts with fresh water after each use.
- Always ensure the Power-Pole shallow water anchor is in the stowed position when travelling.
- Lubricate the bushings at all hinge points with spray lithium grease every 6 months. (See
