5.3 Hydraulic Connections
TPE pumps are designed for use with double-acting torque tools (powered in both the
advance and retract directions) and
MUST
be connected to the tool/s via both, the
advance and retract couplers.
DO NOT
pressurise the pump / system if there are any
disconnected couplers in the system.
ALWAYS
use Hi-Force HTWH hoses to make connections.
Hi-Force TPE Torque Wrench Pumps are fitted with dual flat-face quick-connect couplers.
Make sure both coupler halves are clean before connecting.
If you are
NOT
using a Hi-Force Torque Wrench with the pump, or if the wrench or
hoses have been modified, make sure that the wrench is connected correctly so that
the male high-pressure advance coupler (6) is connected to the advance port on the
tool. Failure to do so may result in leakage, tool damage or personal injury.
5.3.1 Connections
(S
ee figure 5.1
)
Connections between couplers are made by simply [1] pressing the male coupler into the female coupler
until [2] the locking collar springs forward and locks the couplers together.
A gentle tug on the hose should be enough to make sure the hose is correctly connected.
5.3.2 Disconnections
(S
ee figure 5.2
)
Always make sure the pump is switched off and pressure has been fully released before
disconnections are made.
To disconnect couplers; [1-1] twist the locking collar on the female coupler in the direction of arrow and
[1-2] pull back toward the female coupler body. [2] With the locking collar retracted, pull the male and female
couplers apart. Fit dust caps after disconnections are made.
