Maintenance
•
Periodic inspection for the general condition of structural and mechanical components is imperative for safe and efficient operation.
•
Periodically inspect all moving parts, framework, and contact areas for signs of wear, fatigue, or loosening. Tighten, adjust, or
replace parts as necessary to prevent failure and maintain proper function.
•
Inspect the hydraulic system for oil drips, hose damage, or other signs of wear. Inspect the level and condition of the hydraulic fluid.
(See hydraulic pump specification sheet.) Replace any parts that show signs of wear.
•
Lubricate all moving parts.
