IMPORTANT:
Be sure to use thread sealant on all hydraulic fittings, Loctite® 545 or equivalent or a non
-
hardening Teflon® thread
compound such as Slic
-
tite®. Tighten until fitting feels snug and then continue to tighten 1/2 to 1 full turn.
CAUTION:
Over tightening
can easily distort the threads. DO NOT USE TEFLON® TAPE.
CAUTION:
Teflon® tape is an excellent thread sealer, however, if it is not
properly applied, pieces of Teflon® may enter the hydraulic system and cause malfunction or damage.
1.
Stand handle assembly (722132) on floor, extend hoses upward (onto a table) with head assembly sitting on an elevated surface.

handle (730303) and
relieve the pressure.
Caution:

6. With piston (731211) at dimension
.185” (4.7
mm) and air disconnected, remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat

seal (S572)
from front hole of head cylinder assembly (731199) and attach air bleeder assembly (704153).
7. Connect air supply and cycle tool ten times (removing any air bubbles) with piston at dimension
.185” (4.7
mm). Disconnect air
supply, remove air bleeder assembly (704153) and replace button head cap screw (402482) and stat

Caution:
Oil may
squirt out from bleeder hole, cover with a rag. Attach fill bottle (745263) and hand pump oil into the head cylinder assembly (731199)
until no air rises into fill bottle (745263). Remove fill bottle (745263) and replace B.H.C.S. (402482) and stat

9.
Connect air supply, cycle tool ten times.
10.
Check stroke of
.600” (15.24
mm) (see below). We recommend using dial calipers. With the actuator released, check dimension (A).
Holding actuator in, check dimension (B). Subtract dimension (A) from dimension (B). If stroke is not within
1/64” (.396
mm) follow steps 11
& 12 below then re
-
check stroke with calipers or depth gage (A
-
1935). If stroke still fails to achieve
.600” (15.24
mm) and is not within
1/64” (.396
mm), then repeat bleeding procedure until stroke met. For your consideration, Gage Bilt offers a depth gage (A
-
1935) to
help simplify and more accurately check your tool stroke. Please contact Gage Bilt for more information.
11.
Disconnect the air supply. Check dimension (A)
(.185”).
Remove both B.H.C.S.

seals (S572) from top of head
cylinder assembly (731199) and push the piston (731211) forward to dim (A)
(.185”).
Caution:
Oil may squirt out from bleeder
holes, cover with a rag.
12.
Attach fill bottle (745263) to the rear hole on head cylinder assembly (731199) and pump oil into the head cylinder (731199) until no air rises into
the fill bottle (745263). Remove the fill bottle (745263) and replace both of the B.H.C.S.

WARNING:
Do not cycle tool without air bleeder assembly (704153), or the screw and stat
-
o
-
seal, installed in tool head. Severe
personal injury could result.
Use CAUTION when removing screws, air bleeder assembly (704153) and fill bottle (745263). Hydraulic oil may be
under pressure.
When replacing a small amount of oil, cycle tool to rear position. While still holding actuator lever assembly (704343),
disconnect air supply.
CAUTION:
Before filling handle assembly (722132), air piston assembly (704121) must be all the way down.
CAUTION:
When forcing piston rod assembly (731333) downward, with head cylinder assembly (731199) removed, hydraulic oil will
eject forcibly from handle assembly (722132).
