1. General instructions
This hydraulic system can entail unavoidable residual hazards for persons and
material objects.
Therefore every person involved in work with this machine and concerned with
transport, installation, operation, maintenance and repair of the hydraulic unit
must be duly instructed and aware of the possible dangers.
For this purpose the operating instructions manual and, in particular, the safety
instructions must be read attentively and understood.
2. Technical data
□ The hydraulic system was designed and projected for the technical data
specified above.
3. Safety
□ The hydraulic system has been designed and constructed according to the
state of technology and the approved safety and technical regulations.
Nevertheless, utilisation of this hydraulic system can entail dangers for life
and limb of the operator and / or other persons, or damage of the hydraulic
system and other objects, especially if the instructions and regulations in
this operating instructions manual are not obeyed.
□ All pipeline, hoseline and valve connections as well as screw fittings must be
checked for leakage and externally recognisable damage.
□ The warning instructions contained in this manual for maintenance and repair
tasks on the hydraulic system must be observed.
Caution !
The hydraulic fluid can cause skin rash and other health damage. Avoid prolonged skin
contact. After contact, wash thoroughly. Always observe the safety and handling
instructions provided by the hydraulic fluid supplier.

Warning
Hydraulic systems are operated under high pressure. If dismantled improperly they
can explode and thereby cause severe accidents. To reduce this risk of explosion,
it is essential to depressurise the systems before dismantling them.
4. Installation
□ Work on the electrical system and electric connections of the solenoid valves
may be carried out only by trained or duly instructed personnel with special
knowledge of and experience with electrical systems.
□ Before installation on site, make sure that the foundation or mounting surface
is flat and firm in order to avoid mechanical distortion and / or vibrations.
□ Use the provided screw threads and mounting bores for attaching the hydraulic
unit to the foundation.

□ The hydraulic pipelines to the consumer devices must be absolutely free from
rust and dirt particles internally, and without burr at the pipe ends.
No further welding or brazing is permittes after installation.
□ The pipelines and fittings must conform to the pressure classification for
which the hydraulic system is designed.
□ Pipelines must be installed with care and without stress. They must be held
in exactly fitting pipe clamps which exert no unnecessary loading pressure.
□ Remove the closing plugs which we have fitted on the hydraulic connections
of the unit in factory, and the coverplates, only immediately before connecting
the corresponding pipelines.
This helps to avoid unnecessary contamination.
□ Before connecting the electric motor and the control lines, check that the
electrical ratings on the type spcification plate of the electric motor and on the
terminal connections plan are identical to the ratings of the local mains power
supply and of the eletrical control system.
5. Commissioning
□ Always use a filter system for filling the hydraulic system, to ensure that the
hydraulic fluid comes into the tank conforming to the specified cleanliness class.
This also applies to filling from new barrels.
□ When switching on the electric motor for the first time, let it run for only a
short time to check the rotation direction.
Clockwise rotation of the pump corresponds to anticlockwise rotation of the
electric motor.
□ When the electric motor is running in the specified rotation direction, the pump
must be vented according to the instructions of the pump manufacturer.
If any problems are encountered, please get in touch with Dae Dong Entec
□ The hydraulic system must be vented thoroughly before adjusting the operating
pressure. This should be done at a pressure with which the load devices can
just be moved.
□ The venting must be made at the highest point of each hydraulic pipeline and
continued unit foam-free medium is coming out.
□ In every new hydraulic system from the factory, however carefully constructed,
there are dirt particles in the pipeline system. Hydraulic systems with
particularly dirt-sensitive devices (proportional and servo control valves) must
therefore be purged thoroughly before running them with full working pressure
and speed.

Date :
□ For the purging process, bypass the connections directly at the load devices
with hoseline connections and replace particularly sensitive valves with purging
plates. It may be possible to accelerate the purging process by fitting by filters
in the hoseline connections.
□ When purging make sure that cleaning filters are not in the subsidiary stream.
Insert new filter elements after purging.
□ Work on the electrical system and elentrical connections of the solenoid valves
may be carried out by trained or duly instructed personnel with special
knowledge of and experience with electrical/ electronic system.
□ During the first two months after commissioning the maintenance tasks must
be carried out at shorter intervals. The following points must be checked daily
during the first week, and daily to weekly as from the second week.
● Hydraulic lines and connections, tank lid and any oil troughs or leaks.
□ Leaks and fill level deficiencies must be remedied immediately. In the case
of problems which cannot be solved by the maintenance personnel of the

operator, Dae Dong Entec must be informed immediately.
□ After the first week and then monthly, check all operationally and safety relevant
screw fittings for firm seating, and retighten them if necessary.
□ Hydraulic screw fittings and couplings must be checked weekly for any leaks.
Leaks must be sealed and escaped hydraulic fluid must be cleaned up.
□ Make sure that fill level deficiencies in the hydraulic tank are corrected
immedeately, and that contaminated filter elements are replaced immediately.
Depending on the environmental conditions, the venting filter, too, must be
replaced once or twice each year.
□ Check at montly intervals for any damage to the unit, control blocks of the
pipelines, pipeline fixing elements, valves, pressure operated switches,
solenoids and electrical connections.
Detected damage must be remedied immediately.
□ Get a specialist to check whether the hydraulic hoselines are in proper working
condition. The following criteria must be inspected;
● Leaks between the hose and the fitting. Is the hoseline wandering off the fitting?
Caution !
The hydraulic fluid can cause skin rash and other damage to health . Therefore avoid
prolonged skin contact. Wash thoroughly after contact, It is essential to obey the safety
and handling instructions provided by the hydraulic fluid supplier.

Warning
Hydraulic systems are operated under pressure. They can explode, causing severe
accidents, If dismantled improperly. To reduce this explosion risk, it is essential
to depressurise the systems before dismantling them.
□ Load devices which could drop down or move in uncontrolled manner when
dismantling the hydraulic system must be supported and secured before
commencing the tasks.
□ Clean up small quantities of hydraulic fluid of hydraulic fluid with rags. Scatter
binding agent on larger quantities and fence off to prevent access. Rags
and binding agents soaked with hydraulic fluid must be disposed of separately.
