				Leaky hydraulic valve on my car lift...help!
			 
			
			The manual lowering valve on my Bend Pak lift is seeping ATF, maybe 1-2 drops per day.   
		
	
		
	
			
				I pulled off the mechanical handle assembly this morning and removed the valve insert. Looks like it's only leaking when the handle is being pushed (when the shaft of the valve is being pressed into the large spring in the pictures). Although I think I get how it works, I'm not familiar with fixing these things. Is there a disassemble/fix/reassemble process for the valve insert...or do they not come apart for service? Thanks!

			Replace both o-rings and call me in the morning. 
		
	
		
	
			
			
				
					Is it seeping from around the large nut (by the large o-ring), or from the center of the shaft? jurgen  |
