Berkon hydraulic fish house frames

[DIESELDAN]

I bought an 8'x20' Ice Castle fish house with a berkon hydraulic frame at a auction, so I really didn't get a manual with it. I was just wondering if anyone else has one with this same frame? If so are there greese fittings on it like the wench style ones have at the pivot points? I haven't looked really hard but I didn't notice any. Also this is my first with a hydraulic frame, is there anything special you guys with hydraulic frames do to ready your house for winter?

Thanx DieselDan

Good question. I bought one this year myself. Would love to hear from others who own a Berkon hydraulic frame.

Thanx I am going to give them a call. I got a great deal at the auction the house had a price written in the door jamb of $20,500 then they dropped it to $17,500 I ended up getting it for $9500 it was brand new and I really like the hydraulic frame, one pin push a button and your fishing.

Dang that is the deal of the year right there. Huge score at that price.

Hey Diesel,

Please post what you find out from them. I sent them an email but didn't get a response. I haven't had a chance to pick up the phone and call them myself.

Happy Fishing!

I think Eric may have been on vacation up on Red the past few days. If you call in the morning, I'd think that he would be there to answer any of your questions. Congrats on picking up the new shack at a great price! You will love that Berkon frame. They are simply the best on the market. Again, give them a call and they will take care of you!

Finally gave them a call today they said nothing to grease other than the axle hubs. By the way they were really nice and helpful. I would recomend them and their frames to anyone looking for a hydraulic frame. I really like my frame and when I was under it this summer it looks really well built.

Thanks for the update DieselDan. How about any other kind of maintenance for their frames?
