With crane on level surface and fully retracted, remove the filler plug and add clean hydraulic fluid to level of filler hole. Hydraulic Ram may have an air block. Open the release valve a miniumu of 2 full turns. Pump the handle at least 20 full srokes to purge air from the system. Valves may not be closing completely. To seat valves; a) With ram fully retracted, close the release valve. b) Raise the jib manually as high as possible. c) Open the release valve and allow the jib to descend and until the ram is fully retraced once more. 22 22 BLEEDING THE SYSTEM Air can accumulate in the hydraulic system during transit, after prolonged use or after filling with oil, causing the ram to respond slowly or in an unstable manner. To remove the air, please follow these steps. 1. Use the handle to turn the release valve anti-clockwise to lower the arm to its lowest point (see figs. 15 & 17). 2. Remove the filler plug (see fig. 18). 3. Pump the handle 5 or 6 times to bleed air out of the system. 4. Use the handle to turn the release valve clockwise until tight. 5. Finally, replace the filler plug and test pump the lifting ram. If it is still slow to respond bleed again. LUBRICATING Use light oil on all moving parts. WHEN NOT IN USE Wipe clean with a slightly oiled cloth. Store with the release valve open. STORAGE Turn the release valve anti- clockwise to lower the jib to its lowest position and place the handle back in its storage place (fig. 18). Remove the spring clips and the locking pins from forward hole securing the legs whilst in use (Fig. 19), leaving the rear pivot bolt in place. Lift the legs one at a time into the vertical position (see Fig.20) and insert the locking pins and spring clips into the hole above the pivot hole securing the legs for storage (Fig. 21 & 22). TOOLS NEEDED: 14mm, 22mm, 24mm and 27mm sockets or spanners. During assembly, only tighten the castors with a socket wrench. Hand tighten all other bolts until assembly is complete, final step is to tighten the rest of the bolts with a socket wrench. You will find that some of the parts of the crane are already assembled. Please take care and seek assistance when required as some of the parts are heavy. You will find that some of the parts of the crane are already assembled.

Only lift directly above the load and not at an angle. 5. Sl owl y turn the rel ease val ve anti - clockwise to lower the arm. 6. The crane is not a transporting device and may only be used to reposition the load ready for working on. Lower the load and jib to the lowest position before moving. Do not move the l oad i n a si deways direction. The crane is not designed to hold the weight for a long period. 7. Lower the l oad onto a sui tabl e and secure working base, being fully aware of its proximity to yourself and other people around you. 8. When the load has been successfully lowered and secured, remove the harness or support beam, retract the jib, open the valve and position the crane in a safe location. Make sure the front legs are locked in the down position with locking pins in place before applying load and or raising the boom. Be aware of the load weight. Always position the sliding jib at the correct location for the load you are lifting; 1/ 4 ton, 1/ 2 ton, 3/ 4 ton or 1 ton. 1. To lift, locate the notches in the handle on the release valve pegs and turn clockwise to close the valve. (see fig. 15) 2. Place the open end of the handle into the pump socket and pump the handle up and down to raise the jib (see fig.16). Pull out the jib extension and select the desired lifting capacity, making sure that the nut, bolt and washer are replaced. (see fig. 14 opposite) 3. Connect the load using an appropriate certified sling or support beam. Ensure you know the weight of the load and that it is below that of the capacity of the crane at the jib position you are using. When removing engines, use only lifting points recommended by the manufacturer. fig. 12 fig. 12a Dont Forget Final step is to tighten the bolts with a socket wrench.
