Fill Marker Hydraulic Cylinders

CAUTION: Before operating, be sure cylinders and attaching hoses are fully charged with oil. Failure to do so will allow markers to fall rapidly when attempting to lower from transport position.

After servicing machine, always cycle cylinders with marker transport locks still in place. This will fill hydraulic marker cylinders with oil and prevent markers from falling when marker transport locks are removed.

CAUTION: When bleeding the marker hydraulic cylinders, loosen flared fitting slowly to prevent injury from high pressure oil.

If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious infection or reaction can develop if proper medical treatment is not administered immediately.

CAUTION: Stay clear. Disk blade will move away from marker arm and marker will lower as fitting is loosened.
