Maintenance - E&P HYDRAULICS V6A Bedienungsanleitung

Maintenance

The electric motor does not have any maintainable parts. If the motor does not work, it
will have to be replaced. The only thing you can do is check the cables and connections.
Once the motor has been taken apart, the warranty will become invalid. The mechanical
parts of the E&P Levelling System can be exchanged. Ask E&P Hydraulics for informa-
tion, if you need parts.
1. Check the oil level every month.
a) Only check the oil when the jacks are fully retracted.
b) When checking the oil level, the level should be about
two to five centimetres below the filling hole.
c) O nly fill the tank when the jacks are fully retracted. If this is done with extended
jacks, the oil may overspill when they are retracted again.
2. The oil should be replaced every 36 months.
3. Annually check the electronic connections of the drive unit.
4. Regularly clean the jacks. Dirt, sand, mud and other contaminations that accumulate
while driving, may limit the functionality of the system.
5. If the jacks remain extended for a longer period of time, the exposed legs must be
protected by weekly spraying them with a silicon lubricant. Do this every 2 or 3 days,
if the camper is located in a salty environment.
6. We recommend injecting the complete cylinders, including hose connections, with an
anti-corrosive agent. This layer (e.g. tectyle) will protect the system against erosion
and rust. This should already have been done during assembly. Annual application of
anti-corrosive agent to the system will significantly increase the product's life span.

Warning: Prior to all maintenance work under the camper, you must secure the front
and rear axles by means of blocks. If not, there will be a risk of injuries or serious
accidents.
Recommended oils:
Only use transmission oil 'A' (Automatic Transmission Fluid - ATF). E&P recommends
ATF with Dexron III or Mercon 5 or a mixture of both. Under freezing point, the jacks
may move slower due to the viscosity of the oil. Under extremely cold weather conditions,
you should use a special type of oil for low temperatures. Consult E&P Hydraulics or a
recognized dealer, before using a different type of oil.
