it on reassembly may damage the critical parts
and affect its service life and warranty. All parts
should be inspected for absolute cleanliness.
In order to service the hydraulic motor, it is

middle of its stroke. Follow one of the two sets
of instructions below.

3. Turn the pressure control knob all the way counterclockwise
to the lowest setting.
4. Open the bleed valve by turning it fully counterclockwise.
5. Start the engine. Slide the throttle lever to a lower setting.
6. Using a torx or small Phillips screwdriver, insert the end
