(Bleeding the Cylinder)
1. Lift must be fully lowered before changing or adding
fluid.
2. Raise and lower lift six times. The cylinder is self-bleed-
ing. After bleeding system, fluid level in Power Unit reservoir
may be low. Add more fluid if necessary to raise lift to full
height. It is only necessary to add fluid to raise lift to full
height.
3. To pressure test, raise lift to full rise and run motor for
approximately 3-seconds after lift stops. This will put pres-
sure on the hydraulic system. Stop and check all fittings and
hose connections. Tighten or reseal if required.
