500SH INSTALLATION TOOL
S/N 1004 AND ABOVE
PLEASE CONTACT GAGE BILT FOR ALL OTHER SERIAL NUMBERS.
To replace a small amount of oil in the tool, connect tool to air line, to ensure piston rod assembly (745347) is at top of stroke. Follow
steps 1
-
10 below. 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 both filling and bleeding procedures on both pages 11 & 12.
1. Stand handle assembly (744129) on floor, and stretch hydraulic hose assembly (A
-
1437) upward on a table or bench laying cylinder
machined (204300
-
4) flat on it
’
s side.
2. Connect tool to air, slowly loosen button head cap screw (402482), marked
“
P
”
on the manifold
-
handle (745303
-
1).
CAUTION TOOL IS
UNDER PRESSURE.
Let oil seep out. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and attach air bleeder assembly (704153). Cycle ten times.
3. Remove air bleeder assembly (704153) and install button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) hole
“
P
”
on the manifold
-
handle (745303
-
1). (Do not over tighten).
4. With tool connected to air, slowly loosen button head cap screw (402482), marked
“
P
”
on back of cylinder machined
CAUTION
TOOL IS UNDER PRESSURE.
Let oil seep out. Remove button head cap screw (402482), and attach air bleeder assembly (704153).
Cycle ten times.
5. Remove air bleeder assembly (704153) and install button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) to hole marked
“
P
”
on
back of cylinder machined (204300
-
4). (Do not over tighten).
6. Hold actuator assembly
-
air (704130) down until piston assembly (206129) is at end of stroke, disconnect air.
7. Slowly loosen screw marked
“
R
”.
(Back of cylinder machined). Remove screw and manually push piston assembly (206129) to full
rear position.
CAUTION:
Oil may bleed from oil port. Attach air bleeder assembly (704153) connect tool to air and cycle tool ten times.
8. Hold actuator assembly
-
air (704130) down until piston assembly (206129) is at end of stroke. Disconnect air & remove air bleeder
assembly (704153) and install button head cap screw (402482) and stat
-
o
-
seal (S572) to hole
“
R
”
on rear of cylinder machined
(204300
-
4). (Do not Over tighten).
9. Connect air and cycle tool several times.
10. Check stroke of
.500” (12.7
mm) using instructions a thru c and diagrams below. We recommend using dial calipers.
a. With the actuator assembly
-
air (704130) released check dimension (A).
b. Holding actuator assembly
-
air (704130) in, check dimension (B).
c. Add dimension (A) to dimension (B). If stroke is not consistent within 1/64" (.396 mm) repeat steps 2
-
10 until
stroke met.
For your consideration, Gage Bilt offers a depth gage (Pt.# A
-
1935) to help simplify and more accurately check your tool stroke.
Please contact Gage Bilt for more information.

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 machined (204300
-
4) 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) and fill bottle (745263) (both sold separately) are required.
