7.0 Maintenance and Storage
Carry out basic maintenance on a regular basis to keep the pump operating in a trouble-free manner.
Maintenance intervals are determined by the frequency of use and the operating conditions on site.
Keep the unit clean.
The oil level in the reservoir
should not
be allowed to drop below the minimum gauge level during
operation.
ALWAYS
check the oil level with the tool/s in the fully advanced position to ensure an adequate
amount of oil is available. Keep the oil reservoir topped-up with high grade
ISO46
hydraulic oil as
per section 5.2.
If the oil level does fall below the minimum mark on the oil level indicator, air could
be drawn into the pump causing erratic operation and possible damage. To top
up hydraulic oil,
See Section 5.2
.
Oil should be replaced after approximately 500 working hours, or more frequently in dusty
conditions. To replace the oil, disconnect from the air supply, remove the oil drain plug (24) on the
bottom of the reservoir and drain the used oil into a suitable container. Replace the drain plug (24)
and refill with high grade ISO46 hydraulic oil as per section 5.2.
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS
dispose of used hydraulic oil in a responsible manner, in accordance with
local regulations.
Monitor the air system lubricator oil level (15). Maintain the level close to the maximum mark shown,
using
ISO VG 32 (SAE10) Detergent Oil
ONLY
. Adjust the oil delivery to between 1 & 2 drops per
minute during the tool advance operation.
Top-up air lubricating oil as required, via the air lubricator filler plug (17). See section 5.5.
DO NOT
use hydraulic oil in the air lubricator. Using the incorrect grade of airline
oil may void your warranty.
After use, always retract the tool/s fully and disconnect the hoses. Fit dust caps to the couplers,
every time disconnections are made.
Routinely perform a visual inspection of the pump and airline hoses for signs of damage.
Store upright in clean and dry conditions.
Pressure gauges should be calibrated at least once every 12 months.
