OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AT A GLANCE
Before operating Pump:
1. Be sure the electrical connection is grounded. Check that your power supply agrees with the motor
nameplate.
2. Use only torque wrench, hoses and equipment rated at 10,000 PSI.
3. Make sure all hose and fitting connections are tight and secure. Hoses cannot be kinked or twisted.
4. Oil level should be 1 to 2” from the reservoir plate.
5. Lossen lock nut and back out relief valve to prevent unintended pressure build-up.
6. Never operate the pump with the directional control valve in advance or retract at 10,000 PSI without
wrench movement for more than 1 minute. Leaving the valve in the advance or retract position with
out the wrench moving will overheat the oil.
After Completing the job:
1. Before disconnecting hoses, fitting, etc., first be sure the wrench is retracted and unloaded, than
unplug the power cord.
2. Store the pump in a clean, dry area.
Periodic Maintenance :
1. Completely change the hydraulic oil and clean the oil filter screen and magnet [located in the reservoir]
twice a year. [Use SIMPLEX oil only, Model # AO1, 1 gallon]. Change the oil more frequently when
used in extremely dusty areas or when the oil has been overheated. Using oil other than SIMPLEX
brand voids the pump warranty.
