6.4. Pump Operation
All operating functions of the pump are performed via the 3 buttons on the control pendant (18).
(See figure 6.2)
Hi-force recommends that operation of the pump/wrench combination be a minimum 2
person job, one to operate the pump and one to operate the wrench. An additional
operator will be required for each addition wrench connected to the pump.
To reduce the likelihood of a finger / hand trapping accident, at least one of the
operators
MUST
be trained in the safe usage of the equipment and a clear system of
communication
MUST
be established.
To ensure the safety of the torque tool operator/s, the pump
MUST ONLY
be operated
once all torque wrench / tool operators have indicated it is safe to do so.
1. Prepare the pump for operation as per section 6.1.
2. Set the required pressure (torque) as per section 6.2.
3.
Using the remote ‘control pendant’ (18), press the ‘Advance’ button once to start the pump.
(
See figure 6.2
)
4.
Press and hold the ‘Advance’ button to advance the tool. (See torque wrench operating instructions
for more details about the wrench operation)
5.
When the wrench stops advancing, release the ‘Advance’ button. The tool will automatically retract
ready for the next operation.
6. Turn the pump off by
pressing the ‘Stop’ button on the control pendant. (
See figure 6.2
)
Good Practice:
Set the relief valve (11) to the fully open position (wound anti-clockwise) after use.
