Can anyone please assist. I have recently moved into a property that has wooden gates operated by BFT Lux Hydraulic rams. I was aware that the gates didn't work and one of the rams was leaking. I have removed the ram and refilled it prior to refitting. I am aware any excess oil will drain through the bleed hole, however I have operated the gates a number of times and oil is still coming out.
I have contacted BFT and can buy a sevice kit for 9.48. Can anyone tell me what system is on the inside of the bleed hole and will there be something in the kit to fix the problem.
Can anyone please tell me if there are instructions available for service, I would also like to replace the ram seal.
Am I being optimistic attempting this, I am fairly practical and have serived items such as kent cylinders in previous employment.
Any assistance would be greatly received.
Thank you
