5.1 Daily Maintenance
[1.]
Clean concrete buildup from all components.
[2.]
Inspect the entire system for wear or damage, replacing or repairing if necessary. Wipe off hoses
and inspect them for cuts, wear, kinks, leaks, and worn or damaged fittings. Inspect valves.
[3.]
Inspect cylinder mounting bolts to ensure they are tight.
WARNING
Never use damaged parts without consulting Hamilton Form concerning safety. If there is any doubt,
do not use it!
WARNING
Make sure that the motor is wired to rotate counterclockwise when viewed from the shaft end of
the motor.
WARNING
Always cover the ends of quick-disconnects with the supplied plugs and caps when uncoupled.
Failure to do so could contaminate the hydraulic system.
If the cylinder stops moving due to a blockage in the flow system (hydraulic lock), do not attempt to
relieve the hydraulic pressure by disconnecting hydraulic hoses or fittings. Removing the blockage
could cause the cylinder to suddenly move.
