2.    After several hours of use or if slide plate (Bearing Area) becomes dry it must be properly lubricated. Using the grease fittings located on each side of the jack plate rails; give each fitting a couple shots of waterproof marine grade grease while the plate is being moved up and down. Do not over lubricate. This should be done once or twice every 6 months.

3.    Inspect hydraulic hose fittings around cylinder and pump for corrosion or leaking. Tighten or replace if leaking or corrosion occurs.

4.    Keep the hydraulic pumps reservoir topped off. Fill the reservoir to the Max line. Run the plate up and down several times, then check reservoir and re-fill to Max line again. We recommend that you use a 20 weight (20W20) non-detergent motor oil in the pumps reservoir. This can be purchased at most auto part stores or directly through us.
