5.0 Installation / Setup
5.1 Pump Requirements
Ensure that the hydraulic pump to be used is suitable for the cylinder/s to which it will connect. For a
single-acting cylinder (one pressure coupling connection), a single-acting hydraulic pump fitted with either
a 2-way or 3-way valve and a single, correctly rated hose, must be used.
5.2 Hydraulic Connections
Connect the hydraulic hose/s between the cylinder/s and the pump, ensuring that the coupler/s are
fully
hand-tightened ONLY
. To do so: [1] Press the male coupler into the female coupler (1), [2] then turn
the threaded-collar clockwise (by hand) until the threads are fully engaged.
NEVER
use wrenches in an attempt to connect the coupling/s. Incorrectly connected
coupling/s are one of the most common causes of faulty operation.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure that all coupler threads are fully engaged. (
See figure 5.2, panel 3
