5 Installation
WARNING Hot hydraulic oil squirting out
The hydraulic system is under high pressure. If hydraulic
connections come loose or are disconnected, hydraulic
oil will squirt out under high pressure. Hydraulic oil
squirting out can lead to serious injury.
u Depressurise the hydraulic system before connecting
or disconnecting the hydraulic circuits of the hy-
draulic attachment (see chapter Depressurising the
hydraulic system).
WARNING Risk of death due to defective first in-
stallation and commissioning
Faults during the first installation or commissioning can
lead to life-threatening situations and may cause consid-
erable damage to property.
u Have the first installation and commissioning exclu-
sively conducted by authorised specialist personnel.
u Do not undertake unauthorised first installation and
commissioning.
NOTICE Damage to the hydraulic attachment
Working with a hydraulic attachment mounted to a long
reach boom may cause damage to the hydraulic attach-
ment.
u Before working with a hydraulic attachment mounted
to a long reach boom consult the authorized Cus-
tomer Center / Dealer in your area.
5.1 Media/consumables
The following consumables are used when operating the
hydraulic attachment:
5.1.1 Mineral hydraulic oil
All hydraulic oil brands prescribed by the carrier manu-
facturer are also suitable for use when operating the hy-
draulic attachment.
However, the oil should comply with viscosity class
HLP32 or higher.
In summer and in hot climates, oils of viscosity class
HLP68 or higher should be used.
In all other respects the regulations of the carrier manu-
facturer are to be taken into consideration.
Optimum viscosity range =30 - 60cSt
Max. start viscosity =2000cSt
Max. oil temperature =80°C
Special conditions apply to using the hydraulic attach-
ment at low temperatures (see chapter Low ambient
temperature).
n
Check the oil filter!
An oil filter must be integrated in the tank line of the
hydraulic system. The maximum mesh width allowed
for the oil filter is 50microns; it must have a magnetic
separator.
5.1.2 Non-mineral hydraulic oil
NOTICE Mixed hydraulic oil
Never mix mineral and non-mineral hydraulic oils! Even
small traces of mineral oil mixed in with non-mineral oil
can result in damage to both the hydraulic attachment
and the carrier. Non-mineral oil loses its biodegradability.
u Only use one type of hydraulic oil.
If you are using non-mineral oil it is imperative that the
name of the oil in use be indicated when returning the
hydraulic attachment for repair.
In order to protect the environment or on technical
grounds, hydraulic oils are currently being used which
are not classified as HLP mineral oils.
Before using hydraulic oils of this kind it is imperative to
ask the carrier manufacturer whether operations with
such fluids are possible.
Our hydraulic attachments are basically designed for use
with mineral oils. Consult the authorized Customer Cen-
ter / Dealer in your area before using other hydraulic oils
approved by the carrier manufacturer. Following initial
assembly and after any workshop repairs, our hydraulic
attachments are subjected to a test run on a test bed
powered by mineral oil.
