AIR MOTOR FAILS TO CYCLE
Step 1. Check external air pressure applied to hydraulic pump assembly air motor (1).
If air pressure is low (less than 60 psi), increase air pressure (60 to 120 psi is
desirable). If air pressure is within desired range, go to step 2.
Step 2. Check if air lines leak or are clogged.
