Pressurizing from an external pressure source
A pressure reducing valve must be fitted between the gas cylinder and the outlet connection of the hose.
The maximum pressure on the outlet side of the reducing valve must not exceed 9.6 bar (139 psi).
WARNING!
To pressurize the pedestal from an external pressure source, proceed as follows:
Fully collapse the moving column (5) and apply the safety catch (24).
Set the control valve (26) to the WORK position (refer to 'Setting the control valve' on page 15 for
more detail).
Rotate the steering ring (3) so that the pressure gauge is visible through the window (2).
Remove the Schrader valve cap (1) and connect the charging line from the pressure source.
Turn on the pressure supply and slowly increase the pedestal pressure to the required pressure.
