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 power supply, remove the oil drain plug (17) on
the bottom of the reservoir and drain the used oil into a suitable container. Replace the drain plug
(17) 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.
After use, always retract the tool/s fully and disconnect the hoses. Fit dust caps to the couplings,
every time disconnections are made.
Routinely perform a visual inspection of the pump and electric cables for signs of damage. Any
electrical cables showing signs of damage
MUST
be replaced by a Hi-Force authorised repair
centre, or by a competent electrician.
Store upright in clean and dry conditions.
Pressure gauges should be calibrated at least once every 12 months.
