INSTALLATION
DANGER!
Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly “give way” causing danger to
operator or the component.
5.1.
SECURE PRESS TO THE FLOOR
DO NOT
attempt to move assembled press manually. When moving the press follow the instructions as detailed in Section 1.
5.1.1.
Move the press to the mounting location, and spot mark through
fi
xing holes in base section (#1
0
) onto the
fl
oor.
5.1.2.
Check for any hidden wiring or cables, if needed change the location for the holes.
5.1.3.
Temporarily move the press to the side.
5.1.4.
Use a masonry drill bit to drill the four holes about 3” to 4” (75 to 100mm) deep into the concrete or wood, as necessary.
5.1.5.
Clean out the drilled holes.
5.1.6.
Position the press and align the holes in the base section with the holes in the
fl
oor.
5.1.7.
Use four concrete anchor bolts or lag bolts for wooden
fl
oors, (not included), to secure to the
fl
oor.
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury
DO NOT
use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs have the problem
corrected.
5.2.
BEFORE FIRST USE
5.2.1.
Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the
release valve and pump the handle several times and close the release valve. Should the system malfunction at any time,
repeating this process may resolve the problem.

DANGER
!
Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons,
always ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not
fl
ex or suddenly “give way” causing danger
to operator or the component. Also ensure you have read and understood section 1 Safety Instructions.
6.
OPERATION
6.1.
Connect the air supply to the foot pedal (#34).
6.2.
Check that the release valve on the hydraulic unit is fully closed, ready for operating.
6.3.
Position the bed frame at the required operating height by inserting the bed frame pins into the appropriate holes in the frame.
6.4.
Position the V-block plates or press tools to be used onto the bed frame and align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the
bed frame or V-blocks and align beneath the ram as required.
NOTE:
Care must be taken to ensure a V-block does not fall from the press bed frame. If necessary hold the configuration in
position with clamps (not supplied).
WARNING!
DO NOT
apply off centre loads.
6.5.
Use either of the handles or the foot pedal to lower the ram to the workpiece.
6.6.
WARNING!
Monitor the pressure gauge during operation to ensure that the rated capacity of the press is not exceeded.
6.7.
When the operation is complete turn the release valve anti-clockwise to release the pressure. The piston and the ram head will
retract
automatically.
6.8.
Disconnect the air supply.
NOTE:
Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid corrosion.
