About Thread Sealants
Liquid Thread Sealant lubricates and fills the gaps between the Fitting threads, and leaves no residue
that could contaminate the Hydraulic Fluid.
Other types of Thread Sealants (like Teflon Tape) can shred during installation or removal and
eventually enter the Hydraulic System.
Thread Sealant can be used with most Hydraulic Fittings, BendPak recommends using PTFE Thread
Sealant with NPT Fittings.
To apply Thread Sealant
1. Make sure the Fittings and Connectors you are going to use are clean and dry.
If you are adding Thread Sealant to a Fitting or Connector that has already been used with a
different sealant, use a wire brush to thoroughly remove the old sealant before adding more.
2. Apply a small amount of thread sealant to the first four threads of the Fitting.
⚠
WARNING Always wear the proper protective equipment when handling Thread Sealant.
Only a small amount of Thread Sealant is required because the Sealant spreads to the other threads
as it is tightened into place.
If you use too much, the excess Sealant will be pushed out the Fitting as it is tightened. Use a rag to
wipe away any excess.
3.
Tighten the Fitting into the Connector; do
not
over tighten the Fitting.
4. Allow the manufacturer recommended curing time before pressurizing the system.
Connect the Hydraulic Hoses
Hydraulic Hoses provide Hydraulic Fluid to the Hydraulic Cylinders, which is used to raise and lower
the Platforms.
The Lift comes with seven Hydraulic Hoses:
•
Four Short Hydraulic Hoses (10 inches / 254 mm, two per Frame Assembly) routed from the
bottom of the Hydraulic Cylinders to a Tee connector.
•
One Medium Hydraulic Hose
(18 inches / 458 mm) routed from the Power Unit (inside the
Console) to the In connector on the Flow Divider at the bottom of the Console.
•
One Long Hydraulic Hose
(87 inches / 2,212 mm): goes from the Tee connector on the
Platform
closest to
the Console to one of the Out ports on the Flow Divider.
• One Extra Long Hydraulic Hose (139 inches / 3,552 mm): routed from the Tee connector on
the Frame Assembly furthest from the Console to the other Out port on the Flow Divider.
