for the following procedure.
1.
Keep the unit clean and stored in a safe place where it
cannot be damaged.
2.
Ensure that the hand pump oil level is correct. To check
the level:
a.
Turn the pump valve counterclockwise (6) and fully
retract the jack cylinder rod to return all oil to the
pump. The jack cylinder must be fully retracted, or
the system will contain too much oil after filling.
b.
Place the hand pump (4) horizontally on a flat
surface.
c.
Using a screw driver, remove the fill cap (3).
d.
Add hydraulic oil to the pump until the reservoir is
2/3 full. Do not overfill.
e.
Reinstall the fill cap.
f.
Test pump operation and remove air from the
system, if required. See
Crawler Tensioning Assembly on page 8-29
g.
Recheck the oil level after removing the air.

jack cylinders, one on the outside of the crawler
frame and the other on the inside.
1.
Close the valve on the hand pump (4) by rotating it
clockwise (5) until finger tight.
2.
Position the hand pump so it is higher than the jack
cylinder (1).
3.
Operate the pump to fully extend the jack cylinder rod.
4.
Open the valve to retract the jack cylinder rod and force
oil and trapped air back into the pump.
5.
Loosen the fill cap (3) just enough to let any trapped air
vent to atmosphere, then tighten the fill cap.
6.
Repeat this procedure until the jack cylinders operates
smoothly.
