WARNING

The HawkJaw is a closed center system
which must have a pressure compensated
volume controlled
power unit. If the only
available hydraulic power unit is constant
volume
, then a Hawk supplied hydraulic
converter kit
(Part # 061-J80) is required.
Running the HawkJaw with a constant
volume
hydraulic power unit may result in
bodily injury and will cause damage to the
HawkJaw and to the hydraulic power unit.

WARNING

The HawkJaw must receive clean
hydraulic fluid
. Running the
HawkJaw without a Hawk approved
filter (Part # 061-H25) and installed
filter element (Part # 061-H25A)
voids the warranty and severely
shortens component life.
