Precautions when installing hydraulic power unit

Cleaning/Rinsing Old Systems

Proper steps are crucial when cleaning and rinsing hydraulic systems to prevent potential blockages.

This process is particularly relevant for single-person performance systems such as dump truck systems

or scissor lift mechanisms. Here are key considerations to ensure a smooth operation:

1. Preventing System Contamination

When operating a dirty hydraulic system, there is a risk of introducing dirt particles into the Hydraulic power unit,

potentially clogging filters. To minimize this risk, it is essential to clean the 

system thoroughly and prevent dirt from re-entering.

2. Isolation of Electrical Components

When dealing with systems that should automatically start power units, it is imperative to isolate all 

electrical components to avoid the potential danger of electric shock.

Ensure proper safety measures are maintained during maintenance and cleaning processes.

3. Adherence to Manufacturer Specifications

Never exceed the manufacturer's specified range for system valve adjustments,

including electrical components, manifolds, and valves. Pay special attention to keeping safety valves 

or pressure relief valves operating within the recommended range to ensure the safety and stability of the system.

4. Caution in Fluid Fill

Avoid overfilling hydraulic power unit reservoirs, especially when dealing with micro hydraulic power units.

The small tank capacity means that refilling should only occur after expelling all 

air from the hydraulic system to ensure proper functioning.

By following these steps, you will be able to successfully carry out the assembly process.

Throughout the process, always refer to the guidelines provided by the manufacturer.

Hydraulic power units come in various types with different capacities and 

characteristics, explaining the variations in prices on the market.
