COLD WEATHER OPERATION
IMPORTANT
Use an oil with the recommended specication from
the HTMA Requirement table. Using oil that is too
viscous (thick) can damage the hydraulic system.
If the tools is to be used during cold weather, preheat the
hydraulic uid at low engine speed. When using the nor-
mally recommended uids, uid temperature should be
at or above 50°F/10°C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) before
use.
Damage to the hydraulic system or compression tool
can result from use with uid that is too viscous or too
thick.
STORAGE
Replace any damaged or missing safety labels and tags
before storing the tool. Clean, dry and lubricate moving
parts before storage. Store in a clean, dry place.
