10T HYDRAULIC BODY REPAIR KIT
Bleeding / Venting Trapped Air
Note: Before use, the hydraulic ram may need to be purged. Some air may intrude in the hydraulic system due to movement
during shipping. Air bubbles can become trapped inside the hydraulic system, preventing the jack from functioning or reducing its
efficiency, thereby reducing the efficiency of the jack.
Purge air from the system if efficiency drops.
1.
Once the product is assembled, open the Release Valve (9) by rotating it 1-1/2 turns, counter-clockwise (Fig 5).
2. Using the handle (2), rapidly pump continuously 15-20 full strokes to purge air from the hydraulic system (Fig 6).
3. Close the Release Valve (9) clockwise until tight (DO NOT over-tighten) (Fig 7).
4. If the Ram (4) does not feel like it is operating correctly, repeat the above process until all air has been purged from the
system. If the problem continues contact Kincrome Customer Service.
OPERATION
Caution: If any heavy weight squashes (comes into contact with) the hydraulic hose, replace the hose immediately!
