Maintenance
WARNING
Never operate pump with release valve closed and disconnected from application. If operated in
this condition, the hose and connections become pressurized. This increases burst hazard.
Damage may occur to pump and its components.
1. Inspect hoses and connections daily.
2. Tighten connections as needed. Use non-hardening pipe thread compound when servicing
connections.
3. Use only good quality hydraulic fluid. We recommend Mobil DTE 13M or equivalent.
When Not in Use
1. Depressurize and disconnect the hydraulic hoses from the application.
2. Thoroughly wipe clean.
3. Store in a clean, dry environment. Avoid extreme temperatures.
4. Protect the pump with a protective cover.
Adding Hydraulic Fluid
1. Depressurize and disconnect hydraulic hose from application.
2. With pump in its upright, horizontal position, remove the oil filter plug located on the top plate of
the reservoir.
3. Use a small funnel to reservoir to within 3/4" (19 mm) of the opening.
Note: Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil. Never use brake fluid, transmission fluid, turbine oil,
motor oil, alcohol, glycerin, etc. Using anything other than good quality hydraulic oil will void the
warranty and damage the pump, hose, and application.
4. Wipe up any spilled fluid reinstall the oil filter plug.
Changing Hydraulic Fluid
1. For best results, change the hydraulic fluid once a year.
2. Repeat step 2 (above) and pour the used fluid into a sealable container.
3. Dispose of fluid in accordance with local regulations.
