7.2.4 Oil Absorber Replacement
Each hydraulic cylinder has two felt washers P/N 41121 to absorb normal rod seal leakage from the
hydraulic cylinders. The felt washers should be replaced when they become saturated with oil. If the
felt is saturated, drips of oil will be seen at the center of the knife bar or clamp.
Use the following procedure to replace the felt, oil absorbers:
Disconnect the main power.
See Section 2.2 Power Lockout Procedure.
1. Remove the top cover by removing the four screws that secure it to the base.
2. Lift the top cover straight up until it clears the main frame plate.
3. Remove the saturated absorbers from around the knife and clamp cylinder rods.
4. If the replacement washers do not have a cut in them, then cut through one side of each
allowing them to be opened and fit onto the cylinder rod.
5. Wipe any obvious leakage from the cylinder and knife bar.
6. Place two new oil absorbers on each cylinder rod.
7. Replace the top cover.

7.3.1 Fuse Check and Replacement
If the machine is plugged in and either the digital display does not light or the hydraulics will not turn
on, a fuse may be blown. The fuse labeled F1 (10 Amp) is used in the hydraulic circuit, and the fuse
labeled F2 (1 Amp) is used in the LED display circuit.
To check and replace fuses:
Disconnect the main power.
See Section 2.2 Power Lockout Procedure.
1. Remove the front panel.
2. A label on the inside of the front panel includes a diagram showing the location of each
fuse on the power panel.
3. Locate each fuse F1 and F2.
4. Pull each fuse holder up and remove the fuse by pushing it with the tip of a screwdriver.
5. Inspect the fuses for damage.
6. Replace damaged fuses. One set of fuses is provided with the toolkit.
7. Push fuse holders back into the power panel.
8. Replace the front panel.
