F. BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The hydraulic system of the lift may have air introduced into the system. If air does enter the hydraulic

system, the hydraulic system may appear to soften. This is most noticeable when (un)loading the

platform at vehicle floor level. The air in the hydraulic system must then be removed. The following

procedure to remove the air from the system is known as "bleeding".

NOTE: The following procedure can be messy and is most easily performed by two people.

1. Fully deploy the lift to groung level.

WARNINGS

C WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND EYE PROTECTION AT ALL TIMES. BATTERIES

CONTAIN ACID THAT CAN BURN. IF ACID COMES INTO CONTACT WITH SKIN,

IMMEDIATELY FLUSH AFFECTED AREA WITH WATER AND WASH WITH SOAP.

C DO NOT SMOKE OR USE OPEN FLAME IN THE VICINITY OF BATTERY. ALWAYS

WORK IN PROPERLY VENTILATED AREA.

C DO NOT LAY ANYTHING ON TOP OF A BATTERY.

2. At the vehicle battery/engine compartment, disconnect the cable from the battery positive (+)

terminal.

3. Locate the air bleeder valve on the top side of the lift cylinder. Access to this valve is from

underneath the lift.

4. Raise the platform to vehicle floor level.

5. Open the air bleeder valve with a screwdriver to let air and hydraulic fluid out of the cylinder.

NOTE: This step will cause oil loss. Have dry rags on hand to clean-up spilled hydraulic fluid.

6. Close the air bleeder valve.

7. Lower the platform to ground level.

8. Remove the plug on the top of the hydraulic pump tank. Make sure that the hydraulic fluid in the

tank is at the FULL level. Fill only with Texaco No. 15 aircraft hydraulic fluid (or equivalent

U.S. mil spec H5606E/F oil) and reinstall the plug.

9. Repeat the previous FIVE steps until the fluid coming out of the air bleeder valve does not contain

any air bubbles.
