Filling Hydraulic Fluid
IMPORTANT!
Before first use,

equipment. If the equipment does not perform
properly after filling to the correct fluid level, bleed
excess air from the hydraulic system following
the Bleeding Air instructions in this manual.

2. Turn Pump upside down so that the
hose outlet faces downward.
3. Lift Pump Handle to its highest position.
4. Place Pump on a flat surface.
5. Remove the Fill Screw.

opening. If required, add high grade hydraulic fluid.
7. Replace the Fill Screw. Tighten securely.
8. Open the Relief Valve.
9. Move Handle back down to its lowest position.
Changing Hydraulic Fluid
1. Change the hydraulic fluid yearly.
2. Remove the Fill Screw and tilt the
Pump to drain out the old fluid.
3. Refill the hydraulic fluid, replace the Fill
Screw, and bleed the system several times
to ensure all air is out of the system.
