SET UP
Remove thread protectors (dust cap) from hydraulic con-
nections/ports. Clean the areas around the fluid ports of
the pump and cylinder. Inspect all threads and fittings for
signs of wear or damage, and replace as needed. Clean
all threads and fittings. Connect all hose assemblies to
the pump and cylinder. Use an approved, high-grade pipe
sealant to seal all hydraulic connections. Tighten se-
curely but do not overtighten.
MAINTENANCE
Due to superior materials and manufacturing proc-
esses, there is little maintenance required of this
product. This fact does not preclude operators re-
sponsibility to inspect each cylinder thoroughly be-
fore each use.
1
. Always use clean, approved hydraulic fluid and change
as needed.
2. Any exposed threads (male or female) must be cleaned
and lubricated regularly, and protected from damage.
Lubricate w/light machine oil.
3. If a cylinder or ram has been exposed to rain, snow,
sand, airborne abrasive, or any corrosive environment
it must be cleaned, lubricated, and protected immedi-
ately after exposure. Daily clean exposed ram with
clean cloth dampened with light machine oil. Prot
ect
exposed ram from the elements at all times.
Periodic Cleaning
Keep the hydraulic system as free of dirt as possible.
When not in use, couplers must be sealed with dust
covers. All hose connectio
ns must be free of dirt and
grime. Any equipment attached to the cylinder must be
kept clean. Use only Mobil DTE13M (hand pump) or
equivalent hydraulic fluid and change as recommended
or sooner if the fluid becomes contaminated (never ex-
ceed 400 hours). Follow pump manufacturers instruc-
tions for changing and adding hydraulic fluid.
Storage
Cylinder should be stored in a vertical position in the
blow molded case with the ram end down in a dry, pro-
tected area, not exposed to corrosive vapor, dust or other
harmful elements. When cylinder has not been used for
a period of 4 months it should be connected to
a pump
and fully extended and then retracted a minimum of 5
times. This cycle will lubricate the cylinder wall, reduc-
ing the possibility of
corrosion and damage there of.
How to remove faulty coupler
If cylinder does not retract, secure load by other means.
Open release valve of host pump to depressurize pump,
hose and coupler. Prevent cylinder ram from retracting
(do not attempt to grasp with pliers or wrench without
first wrapping the jaws of such tool with rags or similar
padding). Disconnect and renew or replace coupler.
