14ADDING OILThis rebar cutter is electro-hydraulic. When shipped from the factory, it was filled with oil. Do not attempt to addoil as long as the tool performs well. Over a period of time the oil level will gradually go down. Eventually thiswill cause a noticeable dropping off in performance. When this happens add oil as follows.1. Place some rebar between the Blades and pull the Trigger Switch.2. Release the Trigger Switch just before the cut is completed to stop the tool.3. Unplug the tool so that the Blades cannot be moved accidentally.4. Remove the Bolt (M10 ✕ 15) which caps the oil filler hole. Add the oil, being careful not to allow any oil to spillinto the motor.5. Replace the Bolt (M10 ✕ 15) and tighten securely.6. Plug the tool in and complete the cutting operation.7. Repeat the above procedure several times until the oil level remains correct.• Only pure hydraulic oil as recommended by Ogura & Company Ltd. should be used in this tool.• For HBC-25N and HBC-32, use Super Hyrando #32 (Nippon Oil Corporation) or equivalent spec anti-wear Hydraulic Oil, ISO Viscosity Grade 32.• For all other models use Ogura supplied hydraulic oil, Super Hyrando #46 (Nippon Oil Corporation) orequivalent spec anti-wear Hydraulic Oil, ISO Viscosity Grade 46.• Do not use other oils as these may cause damage to the seals and other internal machine parts.CAUTION
