Purging Tirehand Trapped Air
Air can be introduced into the system from a leak or when a hydraulic component is disconnected
for servicing. Air in the system will cause erratic operation and must be corrected.
To purge air from the system, extend and retract the affected cylinder several times. At the end of
the stroke, hold the valve open for a few seconds. Repeat this procedure until operation is smooth
and continuous.
Hydraulic System
Whenever disconnecting a hydraulic component:
1 ALWAYS relieve internal hydraulic pressure before proceeding with the repair.
2 NEVER allow foreign matter - dirt, water, metal particles, etc. - to enter the hydraulic
system through the open connection. Seal the connection as tightly as possible. If dirt does
get in, a filter change is required after about 50 hours of operation.
3 ALWAYS cycle all of the controls after completing a repair. This will eliminate trapped air
and prevent bumpy, erratic behavior during actual working conditions.
4 ALWAYS check for hydraulic leaks after a repair. A high pressure leak is hazardous
and must be repaired before putting the unit to work.
