FILLING PROCEDURE
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.
CAUTION:
Before filling handle assembly (744129), air piston assembly (744121) should be all the way down.
CAUTION:
When forcing piston rod assembly (745347) downward, with cylinder (204300) removed, hydraulic oil will eject forcibly
from handle assembly (744129).
CAUTION:
When bleeding tool, ensure tubing is free from kinks or other obstructions.
CAUTION:
Use CAUTION when removing screws, air bleeder assembly (704153) and fill bottle (745263). Hydraulic oil may be under pressure.
Note:
•
Air Bleeder Assembly (704153) (sold separately) & Fill Bottle (745263) (sold separately) are required.

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 a malfunction or damage.
Should it become necessary to completely refill the tool (such as would be required after tool has been dismantled and reassembled),
follow all steps for filling procedure.
1.
Ensure air piston assembly (744121) is at the bottom of stroke by pushing piston rod assembly (745347) down, piston assembly (206129)
is in rear position, dimension
“

”.
2. Fill power cylinder (745345) and oil passage to the top, where o
’
ring (S832) sits.
3. Place gasket (745124) and o'ring (S832) on top of the handle assembly (744129).

the manifold
-
handle (745303).
6. Stretch tool out horizontally and lay flat on table or floor.
7. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) from hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300) and hole marked
“
P
”
on manifold handle (745303).
8.
Attach fill bottle (745263), to bleeder hole marked "P" on manifold handle (745303).
9.
Squeeze fill bottle (745263) on manifold
-
handle (745303) until oil flows through hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300). Install button
head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) in hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300) and torque 35
-
40 inch lbs. (3.95
-
4.52 Nm).
Do not over tighten. Remove fill bottle (745263) and install button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) in hole marked
“
P
”
on manifold handle (745303).
10.
If oil does not flow through hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300) in one squeeze. Cover hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300),
remove fill bottle (745263) to allow bottle to expand. Reattach fill bottle (745263) uncover hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300) and
squeeze fill bottle (745263) again until oil flows through hole marked
“
P
”
on head cylinder (204300 Install button head cap screw (402482)
and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) in hole marked
“

11. Repeat steps 7
-
10 using the return pressure holes (the bleeder hole marked
“
R
”
on manifold
-
handle (745303) and hole marked "R"
on rear of cylinder (204300).
12. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) to hole marked
“
P
”
on manifold handle (745303) and attach air
bleeder assembly (704153). Connect tool to air.
13.
Slowly loosen button head cap screw (402482) and on hole marked
“
R
”
