Depends which version you have.
I had one of the first prototypes in mine.
Was a hydraulic pump, no electrics needed, and also no accumulator
The second version has one.

Thanks. I'm looking at viewing a 2002 one a fair distance away. Some

language issues with the seller and can't find a manual or info online
about the
engine operation with pre DG models.
So early ones had a hydraulic hand pump.

Yes, that is correct.
Mine was 2002/2003 and had no accumulator. Depending where in the world you are you will have some difficulties getting it certified.
If you are US based then it will probably be experimental.
