Maintenance by the Operator
•
The jack must be extended to full lifting height at least once a week and
pumped through a few times with the lowering spindle closed. This will au-
tomatically bleed it and remove the accumulated leakage oil.
•
After washing, oil all bare and all moving parts.
•
Piston rod, load support pins, rollers and other moving parts must always be
lightly oiled.
•
Regularly lubricate the carriage via the grease nipples on the rollers (8 pcs).
•
Residues of underbody protection and other impurities can destroy the seals.
Clean the piston rod regularly! Damage to the piston rod must be ground out
immediately with a soft transition. Cleaning agents and salt water can pene-
trate unhindered and cause great damage on the inside.
•
Water is harmful! A compressed air maintenance unit, consisting of a com-
pressed air filter, water separator and oil nebuliser, must be available in the
compressed air system near the jack (max. distance: 5 m). Drain mainte-
nance unit weekly, check oil level and check for function. Keep the mainte-
nance unit clean.
→
Adjustment of the maintenance unit:
The oil nebuliser must be adjusted so that approx. 1 drop of oil is
consumed per stroke. This is done by means of a slotted screwdriver
which is inserted through the opening in the pneumatic cover plate. The
drainage quantity or the oil level can be conveniently checked through the
metal protection basket of the maintenance unit. The oil reservoir can be
removed and filled by turning it 90° to the left and then pulling it
downwards. Installation in reverse order!
→
Filling the maintenance unit:
To refill the oil reservoir of the maintenance unit, the jack must be
completely lowered, pressure-free and disconnected from the
compressed air supply! The oil reservoir can be removed and filled by
turning it 90° to the left and then pulling it downwards. Installation in
reverse order!
A so-called refrigeration dryer is not sufficient for compressed air maintenance!
A refrigeration dryer cannot filter out the line dirt and does not supply the
equipment with the oil film that is important for trouble-free operation (see
section: "Compressed Air Supply").
