6. preparation For use
6.1.
Secure press to the bench/floor
WarninG!
Always use another person when moving the press

workpiece.
WarninG!
to prevent serious injury
do not
use damaged equipment. if abnormal noise or vibration occurs have the problem
corrected before further use.
6.2.
Before first use
6.2.1.
Before using the press check the hydraulic oil level in the bottle jack.
6.2.2.
test the jack several times to make sure it operates correctly before actual use. if the jack does not work properly, bleed the excess air
following these steps:
a. open the release valve.
b. Remove the oil plug and fill the jack with hydraulic fluid to full level.
c. Apply pressure to the saddle and pump the handle up and down several times.
d. check the oil level and if necessary top off with hydraulic oil.
e. replace the oil plug and close the release valve.
f. test the jack several more times for proper operation before using.
note: if after bleeding the excess air the jack will still not operate properly
do not
use the press until it has been repaired or
replaced.
7. operation
7.1.
use the support rods (#9) to adjust the height of the press platform (#3).
note: the press platform needs to be in the highest position with the workpiece as close as possible to the ram of the jack plate.
7.2.
Place the workpiece on the press plates (#7).
WarninG!
make sure there are no obstructions under the press plates. obstructions will create an uneven surface which can cause
the press plates to break under pressure.
WarninG!
When pressing two items together the items need to line up vertically. if they are not lined up one item may forcefully eject
sideways from the unit.
7.3.
Put the handle (#18 Parts diagram only) in the jack sleeve and move the jack plate down until the ram of the jack plate contacts your
