5.
Test the ram several times for proper operation before putting it into use. Do
not use the ram if it still does not appear to be working properly. Have a
qualified service technician service or repair the hydraulic system.
SHARPENING THE WEDGE
The wedge will dull after repeated use. Remove burrs and nicks from the edge
with a file.
LUBRICATION
Inspect and lubricate the tool when required.
1.
Apply a suitable oil or grease to all points where metal contacts metal and
any hinges or pivot points.
2.
Fully extend the ram, then apply grease to the piston. Use a tool to apply
the grease instead of your hands to avoid the possibility of an unexpected
retraction.
3.
Remove each wheel and grease the wheel shafts (#48). Reinstall the wheels.
STORAGE
When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the
steel parts to avoid rust. Remove the lubricant before using the tool again.
DISPOSAL
Recycle a tool damaged beyond repair at the appropriate facility.
Contact your local municipality for a list of disposal facilities or by-laws for
electronic devices, batteries, oil or other toxic liquids.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT pollute the environment by allowing uncontrolled
discharge of waste oil.
HYDRAULIC FLUID
Do not drain hydraulic oil into the sewer system or dispose in an uncontrolled
location. Hydraulic fluid may take more than a year to breakdown in the
environment and the ingredients may still be toxic. Contact your local
municipality for proper disposal instructions or locations.
