Step
Action
1
Run a length of supplied 0.38-inch (9 mm) O.D. tubing between each stack valve connection and the two
fittings on each end of the Contherm
™
hydraulic lift piston assembly. Avoid crimping the tubing and ensure
that the tubing is not resting against moving parts.
2
Run a length of supplied 0.38-inch (9 mm) O.D. tubing between each stack valve connection and the two
fittings on the hydraulic pump assembly. If your configuration utilizes two or more hydraulic stack valve
assemblies, run the tubing in series as shown in Figure 6-16 above. The red line indicates the hydraulic system
feed line. Item 1 below indicated in blue demonstrates how to connect the piping of each stack valve in series.
3
Install the hydraulic pump assembly with the oil filter and breather cap in an upright position. The pump
pressure is set at the factory. An adhesive sticker arrow on the pump indicates its upright position.
4
Add the initial charge of hydraulic oil to the reservoir. Volume required is 4.0 U.S. gallons (15.2 liters).
Use a high-quality SAE 10 Grade Hydraulic Oil for applications operated in a temperature range of 0
°
F (-18
°
C) minimum to 160
°
F (71
°
C) maximum.
Use a high-quality SAE 20 Grade Hydraulic Oil for applications operated in a temperature range of 32
°
F (0
°
C) minimum to 200
°
F (93
°
C) maximum.
Operate the hydraulic fluid at temperatures below 160
°
F (71
°
C) for optimal performance of both the pump
and hydraulic oil.
(Ex. Mobile Hydraulic Oil AW 32, ISO VG 32 or Exxon NUTO FG 32)
5
After adding the initial charge of hydraulic oil to the hydraulic pump assembly’s reservoir, purge the air from
the Contherms
™
hydraulic rotor lifting cylinder. If your configuration uses more than one Contherm
™
, then
you must purge the air from every unit’s rotor lifting cylinder. This is accomplished by operating the Rotor
Lifting Device under its own weight as described below.
If your Contherm
™
does not have a Rotor Hold Down feature, go to Step 6. If your Contherm
™
has a
Rotor Hold Down feature, go to Step 13.
6
Be sure head and bearing clamps are secured to the components. Operate the stack valve to ensure the
lift beam has snugged up to the bearing housing.
7
Non-Rotor Hold Down: Remove the Shoulder Bolt Assembly (P/N 7401286-01) that attaches the Lift Beam
Assembly (P/N 7401283-01) to the Bearing Cap (P/N 7401618-01). Refer to Figure 7-13 in Chapter Seven
for parts location information.
Rotor Hold Down Design: Remove the two (2) hex head bolts (P/N 7401241-21) that attach the Lift Beam
Assembly (P/N 7401283-02) to the Bearing Cap Cover (P/N 7402993-01). Refer to Figure 7-14 in Chapter
Seven for parts location information.
8
Depress the Stack Valve Assembly’s handle and lower the hydraulic lift beam until it is fully lowered.
9
Lift the Stack Valve Assembly’s handle and raise the hydraulic lift beam to its initial position at the bearing cap.
10
Repeat Steps 8 - 9 until piston movement is firm and smooth.
11
While purging the air from the system, slowly add oil to the reservoir as needed. Add oil until the level is
just below the Breather Cap connection.
12
Reattach the shoulder bolt to the bearing housing and operate the lift device according to the label on the
Contherm
™
. Lower head and rotor as final test. Attach using clamp.
13
Remove the two (2) hex head bolts (P/N 7401241-21) that attach the Lift Beam Assembly (P/N 7401283-02)
to the Bearing Cap Cover (P/N 7402993-01). Refer to Figure 7-14 in Chapter Seven for parts location
information.
