SYSTEM BLEEDING

Material

Material:

1. Remove the hydraulic system.

2. NOTE:
- The hydraulic fluid must be checked with the hydraulic motor and pump assembly in a level horizontal position.
- The hydraulic fluid level should be at the "+" sign that is molded into the hydraulic fluid reservoir.

Check the hydraulic fluid level and add hydraulic fluid as needed.
- To add hydraulic fluid, remove the hydraulic fluid reservoir fill plug.
- Add hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic fluid reservoir.
- Install the hydraulic fluid reservoir fill plug.
- Tighten to 1 Nm (9 lb-in).

- Check the hydraulic fluid level.







3. NOTE:
- Make sure the hydraulic pump and motor assembly is above the hydraulic lift cylinders before operating the hydraulic pump and motor assembly.
- A squealing noise may be heard due to the air in the hydraulic system.

With the RH and LH hydraulic lift cylinder rod ends tilted upward, connect a 12-volt source and operate the hydraulic motor until the hydraulic cylinders are fully extended and then fully retracted.

4. Repeat Steps 2, 3 and 4 until the hydraulic fluid level remains unchanged.
5. Install the hydraulic system.
