BEFORE USE
1. Before using this product, read the instruction manual
completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
product and the hazards associated with its improper
use.
2. Know your pump, its limitations and how it operates before
attempting to use
3. Use Spare Parts List Illustration on pages 6 & 8 as reference
of location and assembly.
4. Replace shipping plug (red color) with air vent plug (black
color). Refer to #58 on parts illustration.
ASSEMBLY
To hook up pump with remote control:
1. Connect
red
hose into air line coupler number 1 on the pump
and then put other end of red hose into corresponding slot
on remote control
2. Connect
purple
hose into air line coupler number 2 on
the pump and then put other end of purple hose into
corresponding slot on remote control.
3. Connect
white
hose to air line coupler number 3 on the
pump and then put other end of the white hose into
corresponding slot on remote control.
Note
: Always secure threaded port connections with non-
hardening pipe thread compound. Tighten securely to prevent
accidental removal of components while in use.
Take care not
to introduce compound into port orifices.
• Study, understand, and follow all
instructions provided with and on this
device before use.
• All WARNING statements must be
carefully observed to help prevent
personal injury.
• No alteration shall be made to this
device.
• Always wear protective gear when
operating hydraulic equipment.
• Keep hydraulic equipment away from
flames and heat. Hydraulic fluid can
ignite and burn. Do not operate if
leaks are detected.
•
Crush Hazard.
Keep hands and feet
away from loading area. Avoid pinch
points or crush points that can be
created by the load, cylinder, or any
equipment of system.
• To avoid crushing and related injuries:
NEVER work on, under or around
a lifted load before it is properly
supported by appropriate mechanical
means. Never rely on hydraulic
pressure alone to support load.
!
WARNING
HYDRAULIC PUMPS
• The user must be a qualified operator familiar with the
correct operation, maintenance, and use of pumps. Lack of
knowledge in any of these areas can lead to personal injury.
• Do not exceed rated capacity of the pump or any equipment
in the system.
• Never attempt to lift a load weighing more than the capacity
of the cylinder.
• Burst hazard exists if hose or connection pressure exceeds
rated pressure.
• Do not subject the pump and its components to shock
loads.
• Inspect pump, cylinder, hoses and connections before each
use to prevent unsafe conditions from developing. Do not
use if they are damaged, altered or in poor condition. Do
not operate the system with bent or damaged coupler or
damaged threads.
• Never hold or stand directly in line with any hydraulic
connections while pressurizing.
• Use gauge or other load measuring instrument to verify load.
• Never attempt to disconnect hydraulic connections under
pressure. Release all line pressure before disconnecting
hoses.
• Use only approved accessories and approved hydraulic fluid.
• Never attach ANY component not authorized by manufacturer.
• Always ensure that the chosen application is stable to work
on and around.
• Do not connect to application which can return more oil to
the reservoir than the pump reservoir can hold.
• Do not connect pump to hydraulic system powered by
another pump.
• This device is not suitable for use as support device! As
the system load is lifted, use blocking and cribbing to guard
against a falling load.
• All personnel must be clear before lowering load or
depressurizing the system.
• Never try to disassemble a hydraulic cylinder, refer repairs
to qualified, authorized personnel.
HYDRAULIC HOSES & FLUID TRANSMISSION LINES
• Avoid short runs of straight line tubing. Straight line runs
do not provide for expansion and contraction due to
pressure and/or temperature changes.
• Reduce stress in tube lines. Long tubing runs should be
supported by brackets or clips. Before operating the pump,
tighten all hose connections with proper tools. Do not
overtighten. Connections should only be tightened securely
and leak-free. Overtightening can cause premature thread
failure or high pressure fittings to burst.
• Should a hydraulic hose ever rupture, burst or need to be
disconnected, immediately shut off the pump and release
all pressure. Never attempt to grasp a leaking pressurized
hose with your hands. The force of escaping hydraulic fluid
can inflict injury.
• Do not subject the hose to potential hazard such as fire,
sharp objects, extreme heat or cold, or heavy impact.
• Do not allow the hose to kink, twist, curl, crush, cut or bend
so tightly that the fluid flow within the hose is blocked or
reduced. Periodically inspect the hose for wear.
• Do not pull, position or move setup by the hose.
• Hose material and coupler seals must be compatible with
hydraulic fluid used. Hoses also must not come in contact
with corrosive materials such as battery acid, creosote-
impregnated objects and wet paint. Never paint a coupler
or hose.
• FAILURE TO HEED THESE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN
PERSONAL INJURY AS WELL AS PROPERTY DAMAGE.
