Initial Start Up 

(Two People Required)

Maintenance

Daily

Check oil level before operating (the system must be off).  

Correct oil level is the bottom sight glass completely full and the top sight glass completely empty 
when the unit is not operating. 

Weekly

Visually inspect the system each week. Check hoses, fittings, and mounting.

Every 3 Months

Change filter every 3 months.

Every 6 Months

Change oil and filter every 6 months.

Grease PTO / Pump spline every 6 months.

Note: If the unit has a high duty cycle, an oil analysis program is recommended.

1. Check oil level in the HydraFLOW. 

Correct oil level is the bottom sight glass completely full and the top sight glass completely empty when the unit is not operating. 

2. Check fan and radiator for air flow. Clean or clear any obstructions as needed. 
3. Ensure the parking brake is applied, control valves are in the neutral position. 

4. Engage the PTO according to manufacturer recommendations. 

NOTE: Oil level will drop in the sight glass when the system is in operation. 

5. Operate valves slowly. 

6. To shut down the system, put the valve in neutral (if available), disengage the PTO per manufacturer
