Page 7 Maintenance and Servicing Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician. SAFETY TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication 1. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for: • loose hardware, • misalignment or binding of moving parts, • cracked or broken parts, SETUP • proper Ram operation, and • any other condition that may affect its safe operation. 2. Lubricate the Grease Fitting with a grease gun once a month, or when the Boom becomes difficult to swivel on the Post. Note: If Crane will be exposed to wet conditions, more frequent lubrication may be necessary to prevent buildup of rust. 3. Change the hydraulic oil at least once every year: a. Remove Ram from Crane. Lower ram completely. b. Remove Oil Fill Plug. c. Tip Ram to allow old hydraulic oil to completely drain out. d. Dispose of old hydraulic oil in accordance with local regulations. e. With the Ram upright, fill with hydraulic oil (sold separately) to full level. f. Open Valve Release Screw and pump the Handle to bleed air from the system. g. Reinstall Oil Fill Plug. h. Reinstall Ram to Crane. 4. Top assembly may be removed and stored indoors in a dry, safe place out of the reach of children. OPERATION MAINTENANCE Page 8 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Item 60732 TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: Use caution when troubleshooting malfunctioning Crane. Stay clear of supported load. Completely resolve all problems before use. If solutions presented in Troubleshooting guide do not solve the problem, have a qualified technician inspect and repair Crane before use. After Crane is repaired: Test it carefully without a load by raising and lowering it fully, checking for proper operation, BEFORE RETURNING CRANE TO OPERATION. DO NOT USE A DAMAGED OR MALFUNCTIONING CRANE! POSSIBLE SYMPTOMS X X X X X Pump stroke feels spongy Hook Handle will moves up not lift when Ram is all the under load way PROBABLE SOLUTION Oil leaking from Fill Plug X X X Check that Release Valve is closed fully. Bleed air from the system. Valve may be blocked and may not close fully. To flush the valve: 1. Lower the Boom and securely close the Release Valve. 2. Manually lift the Boom several inches. 3. Open the Release Valve and force the Boom down as quickly as possible. Ram may be low on oil. Check the oil level and refill if needed. Ram may require bleeding - see Bleeding Instructions on page 6. Unit may have too much hydraulic oil inside; check fluid level and adjust if needed. MAINTENANCE X (Make certain that the Crane is not supporting a load while attempting a solution.)
