3. OPERATING
Unlock the fixing hook (3), this allows operating the pedal arm (2) and also the pedal (6) as a
consequence the ram of the pump runs. At the initial stage the velocity is high and this will push the
ram of the hydraulic head connected. Once the changing pressure (50 bar approx.) is reached the
pump automatically changes to slow velocity. Keep on operating the pump, this will release
automatically at 700 bars; indicated with an audible click.
If the position of the connector is incorrect in the compression point, push the decompression lever (5)
(the ram retracts) to correct the connector position. Once, the connector is in the correct position the
pedal can be operated again. When this operation is already finished, push the decompression lever
(5) to completely retract the ram of the remote compression head.
4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 Cleaning
Every day, after use, the tool must be cleaned with a clean cloth, taking care to remove any residual
especially close to removable parts. The pump can be cleaned with gasoline but the guide of the ram
should be regularly lubricated with grease.
4.2 Oil - level
The oil tank capacity is 1 litter. To check the oil level place the pump horizontally and open the oil tank
plug. The oil must not exceed the plug. The oil level must be below the plug and only override it when
the side of the hose is slightly elevated, if not, add oil in proportion.
4.3 Storage
When not in use, the tool should be stored and transported in the carrying case to prevent the tool from
any dust or damage.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Air in the hydraulic circuit
To purge air from the system keep the pump in a horizontal
position at one meter above the connected head. Remove
the oil cap and operate the pedal until dies (or blades) of the
head are almost closed. Release the oil pressure by
pressing slowly on the decompression lever, repeat this
operation at least 3 times in order to ensure the evacuation
of air bubbles in the hydraulic circuit. Then, fit and retighten
the oil cap.
5.2 The ram operated but can not compress the connector
One possible cause is insufficient oil level, see 4.2.
Another cause can be that the decompression valve is not correctly closed due to duty particles. The
residual particles can be removed by a fast operation.
