11.2 Preventive service
11.2.1 Care instructions
The exterior of the equipment is to be cleaned from time to time in order to protect it from
external corrosion. Oil is to be applied to the metallic surfaces.
11.2.2 Replacing the hydraulic fluid
- After approx. 200 deployments, but after three years at the latest, replace the hydraulic
fluid
- The fluid should be replaced when it is warmed up.
- The motor must be switched off.
- The old hydraulic fluid must be disposed of properly.
Procedure:
1. Place the collection basin underneath the drain plug of the unit.
2. Loosen filler screw “C” or “D”, drain plug “A” and seal ring B“ on the unit and collect the
fluid in the prepared receptacle. This enables easy cleaning of the hydraulic unit.
3. We recommend that you remove the frame before you open the hydraulic fluid reservoir.
To do this, remove bolts “E”, nuts “H” and washers “F” and “G”.
