Service Recommendations

Preventive maintenance is recommended at regular intervals. See the detailed information on preventive maintenance. If the product is not working properly, take it out of service and inspect it.

If no detailed information about preventive maintenance is included, follow these general guidelines:

• Clean appropriate parts accurately

• Replace any defective or worn parts

• Lubrication: All moving parts should periodically be coated with a good quality lubricant as Molykote with Graphite P37 or Dow Corning 1000. Under harsh environmental conditions, cleaning and lubricating should be performed more frequently.

• Hydraulic hoses: Hoses should be checked for cracks and leaks after each job. Hydraulic fittings can become plugged with dirt and should be flushed periodically. Hydraulic hoses have to wear a valid control certification.

• Quick-Connects: Fittings should be kept clean and not allowed to be dragged along the ground or floor, as even small particles of dirt can cause the internal valves to malfunction.

• Cylinder Seals: If the cylinder requires disassembly, it is recommended that the cylinder seals be replaced at the same time. Seal kits are readily available.

• Structural Member :All structural parts on the tool should be inspected once a year to determine if there are any cracks, chips or deformities. If so, immediate replacement is required.
