FILLING PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to use thread sealant on all hydraulic fittings, Loctite® 545 or equivalent or a non

hardening Teflon® thread
compound such as Slic
-
tite®. Tighten until fitting feels snug and then continue to tighten 1/2 to 1 full turn.
CAUTION:
Over tightening
can easily distort the threads. DO NOT USE TEFLON® TAPE.
CAUTION:
Teflon® tape is an excellent thread sealer, however, if it is not
properly applied, pieces of Teflon® may enter the hydraulic system and cause a malfunction or damage.

Images may not reflect actual tool
WARNING:
Do not cycle tool without air bleeder assembly (704153), or the screw and stat
-
o
-
seal, installed in tool head. Severe
personal injury could result.
WARNING:
Use CAUTION when removing screws, air bleeder assembly (704153) and fill bottle (745263). Hydraulic oil may be
under pressure.
WARNING:
When replacing a small amount of oil, cycle tool to rear position. While still holding actuator lever assembly (704343),
disconnect air supply.
CAUTION:
Before filling handle assembly (722132), air piston assembly (704121) must be all the way down.
CAUTION:
When forcing piston rod assembly (731333) downward, with head cylinder assembly (731199) removed, hydraulic oil will
eject forcibly from handle assembly (722132).
CAUTION:
When bleeding tool, ensure tubing is free from kinks or other obstructions.
Note:
•
Fill Bottle (745263) (sold separately), is required.
