Pumping up the hydagas suspension was created by Cobber

I finally got myself a Pump for the hydragas suspension.
It's by Alba Diagnostics and works a treat.

Here are the instructions for the Alba Pump (the other brands would be similar)

Instructions for the ALBA pump

WARNING : Always wear eye protection when using this equipment as the fluid will be under high pressure.

INITIAL ASSEMBLY
After unpacking your new pump, remove the plastic filler cap, and then pour approx 2.5 litres of the recommended Hydrolastic Fluid into the reservoir. This will leave sufficient space to collect any fluid to be drained from the vehicle. Replace the cap.

Your pump is now ready for action!

CONNECTION TO THE VEHICLE
Ensure that the vehicle is on level ground, that it is unladen, the tyre pressures are correct and that the brakes are off.
Set the pressure/Release Valve to the Pressure position. Prime the connector hose before fitting to the vehicle, by gently pumping the handle until fluid reaches the connector.
Ensure that the T Bar on the low loss
car connector (see diagram) is fully
unscrewed, then fit the low loss connector
securely to the Vehicle Displacer Unit.
Screw in the T-Bar on the low loss car
connector (this will release the vehicle
fluid into the connector hose).

YOU SHOULD ONLY USE YOUR BARE HANDS TO TIGHTEN THE CAR CONNECTOR. NEVER USE TOOLS FOR THIS PURPOSE AS DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE VEHICLE DISPLACER.

DRAINING FLUID
After connection to the vehicle: simply set the Pressure/Release Valve to the Release position (which will allow the vehicle fluid to be drained into the pump reservoir).

REFILLING THE DISPLACERS
After connection to the vehicle: Set the Pressure/Release Valve to the Pressure position. Pump the handle steadily until the approximate pressure or trim height is reached. Bounce the vehicle during this process, to ensure that the suspension is properly settled. Allow the system to rest for a minute or two (to allow any air to rise to the top of the displacers).

Momentarily set the Pressure/Release Valve to the Release position to allow pressure drop of approximately 50-100psi. This will expel any air in the system. Finally pump up to the recommended trim height.

DISCONNECTION FROM THE VEHICLE
Unscrew the T-Bar fully, then release the pressure in the connector hose, by setting the Pressure/Release Valve to the Release position.
Finally remove the low loss connector from the Vehicle Displacer Unit and refit the dust cap.

SERVICING
Periodically grease the handle linkages.
Cleaning the inlet filter: After continual use, the inlet filter may become choked (which will become apparent by an increase in “lag”, whilst the pump cylinder is filling). The filter is situated on the end of the inlet hose, which can be reached by first removing the reservoir lid (which is held by 4 bolts). Compressed air can be used for cleaning purposes ( taking the usual precautions associated with the use of compressed air).

Excellent write up.

I've used the Alba, had a liquid levers one and used a Churchill "darlek" and indeed the workings are very similar.

Not had use of a grease gun type though, think they'd be more use to keep the system topped up.
