Hydraulic Oil
The hydraulic oil is the primary medium for transmitting pressure and also must lubricate the
running parts of the pump.
1. Use hydraulic oil #68 SHELL BRAND or an equivalent with similar specifications.
2. Keep hydraulic reservoir filled to 90% of capacity.
3. DO NOT rely totally on the oil gauge as they can sometimes indicate an incorrect level
reading. Do a visual inspection with the oil fill cap removed as well.
4. A shortage of hydraulic oil will cause hydraulic system breakdown to major mechanical
components due to overheating.
5. Change the hydraulic oil every 12 months.
Oil Disposal
Used oil products must be disposed of in a proper manner following your local regulations.
WARNING:
Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on
the machine.
Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel.
Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery.
