Maintenance Instructions
WARNING:
Do not perform maintenance while system is running.
1.
Perform regular, periodic checks to verify:
a. The cooler, the cooler fan and generator vents are not plugged by debris.
b. There are no fluid leaks within the framework of the generator, along the hoses,
or at the pump.
c. The hoses are not cut, chaffed, bulged or kinked.
d. That no electrical connections are loose.
e. That the hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir is between ½ to ¾ full in the sight
gage and the hydraulic fluid is clean and of normal color.
f. That the bolts mounting the pump to the PTO are not loose.
g. If the hydraulic fluid appears dirty or black in the reservoir sight gage, replace
the fluid and filter immediately. Also, if the hydraulic fluid sustains a temperature
over 185° F, replace the fluid immediately. Oxidation can occur naturally over
time and can be accelerated with over temperature operation, affecting
generator output. Always change the filter when the hydraulic fluid is changed.
WARNING:
When adding or replacing hydraulic fluid, always use clean, new hydraulic fluid.
Do not power wash the generator. Doing so will void the system’s warranty.
Do not allow liquid to enter the generator.
If the outside of the generator requires cleaning, wipe surface with a damp cloth.
Clean the Command and Control Center using soap and water with a soft cloth only.
Improper cleaning, handling and use that may scratch, gouge, chip, fade or
otherwise damage the metallic coating and display surfaces are not covered under
the device warranty.
2.
Replace the oil filter after every 250 hours of operation, or every three (3) years
(whichever comes first). Use fresh hydraulic fluid and one of the following filters:
Hydac 0080 MA010 P
Puralator 20101
Fram P-1653-A (10 Micron 8 GPM)
WIX 51551 (10 Micron 8 GPM)
Lubricate the oil filter gasket with Hydraulic Oil before installation to permit
proper sealing of the filter.
