5.1.3 Hydraulic Oil Fill
Remove the diagnostic window to gain access to the reservoir and add PULSAlube 7H hydraulic oil
until the oil level is between the max and min as indicated on the new (flexible style) dipstick as
illustrated below. For older pumps equipped with a solid dipstick, the oil level should be below the
upper coils of the piston return spring, if the upper coils of the spring are submerged, the oil level is
too high (ref. Figure 10). Adding 1 liter (approx. 1 quart) of oil to a fully drained pump will result in
the correct fill level. High oil level will not affect the operation of the pump, however it can result in
nuisance leakage of oil. Replace the window, making sure it is properly aligned and square before
tightening the thumbscrew.
