Caution: These procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance explained as part of the regular
operation of the hydraulically operated tool. Lubrication of this product is critical. Any contaminants such as dirt,
rust, etc. may damage internal components of the hydraulic assembly.
1. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for:
a. loose hardware or housing.
b. misalignment or binding of moving parts.
c. cracked or broken parts.
d. any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
2. When not in use, store the equipment in a dry location with the vehicle positioning jacks fully retracted with the
