B.  Push in the valve 14 of the plug with a screwdriver and pick out 

the defective seal ring 13 with a spiky object.

C.  Press the new seal ring together and put it with the open side 

downwards on the valve 14.

D.  Push the valve 14 downwards to the notch, locate the screwdri-

ver in the middle of the seal ring and remove the hand.

E.

Replace the coupling plug if the problem cannot be solved.

5. Leakage at the hydraulic locking device HV

Figure 6: Hydraulic locking device HV

Hint   

 

A small oil film on the piston of the hydraulic lo

-

cking is normal and is not a leakage. Are there 

larger leakages between the piston and the pi-

ston cover, the hydraulic locking device has to be 

replaced. Is the leakage between the HV and the 

hollow screw or rather between the HV and the 

coupling plug, the particular seal ring can be re-

placed.

Attention  

Switch off motor, depressurize system!

 

 

 

Disconnect PMK system

  

Course of action: 

• 

Remove the anti-twist plate, unscrew the 3 screws on the top

• 

Untighten the hollow screw by holding the coupling plug with an 

adequate tool. Replace the defective seal ring

• 

Connect PMK. Check if the piston of the HV moves out under 

pressure. Only this prevents an unintentional disconnection un-

der pressure!

Replace the hydraulic locking device if the problem cannot be solved.

 
Attention 

 

safety device! Repair of the hydraulic locking de-

vice is not allowed!
