ASSEMBLY
NOTICE
The PP 418 power pack must be serviced before use. In some markets the power pack will be delivered filled with both engine oil and hydraulic oil.
Remove the power pack from its shipping material and place it on a level surface.
CAUTION
Only use the lifting eyelet when lifting the power pack.
Step 1
Check the engine oil level. If no oil is present on the dipstick add oil in accordance to the recommendations on page 8 or consult the BRIGGS & STRATTON Operator’s Manual.

Step 2
Fill the hydraulic oil tank.
Use only a high quality hydraulic oil – ISO 46. See page 8 for other alternatives. The total first time oil amount needed is 10 liters (2.6 gal) to fill the tank. The oil should be filled to the middle of the sight glass.
The oil level must be rechecked and refilled after the initial test running has been done - see page 12.
Step 3
Hook up the hydraulic hoses to the power pack. Connect the two couplers in the free end of the hose. The hoses are now ready to be charged with oil from the oil tank.
NOTE:
The hoses can be installed with either end to the power pack. Any set of hoses assembled with the couplers as in this illustration will always have full compatibility between power pack, hoses and tool.

If the hydraulic hoses (7.5 m/25 ft) are empty they will require approximately 1.8 liters (2 quarts) of additional oil to be added to the oil tank after running the power pack for the first time.
If an additional 30 m (100 ft) of 5/8” hose set is used they will require approximately 12 liters (3.2 gal) to be added. The oil level in the oil tank must be rechecked several times when filling a new hose set.
Step 4
Check the tire pressure. The wheels are tubeless. If the tire pressure becomes too low the wheel will deflate completely. Inflate to 2 bar (30 psi)
Step 5
The power pack is delivered without the battery cables installed to the battery. Please read;
SERVICING THE BATTERY on page 10.
The original equipment battery is maintenance free. Do not attempt to open or remove caps or covers. Adding or checking the level of electrolyte is not necessary.
WARNING
Lead-acid batteries generate explosive gases.
Keep sparks, flame and smoking materials away from batteries. Always wear eye protection when around batteries.
Step 6
Fill the fuel tank with fresh clean gasoline. See warnings and recommendations on page 8. Add only fuel in a quantity that will be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness. If the power pack is stored with fuel in the tank for longer periods we recommend to use a commercially available “Fuel Stabilizer”.
