Adding Hydraulic Fluid
1. Ensure that the lift cylinder is completely
collapsed.
Important:
Do not manually pull the tower
down. This can cause an air pocket to form
in the hydraulic system and fluid to spill out
of the internal filler cap.
2. Clean the area around the fill cap ( Figure 27 ).

range of movement.
