WARNING:
Wear proper personal protective gear when operating hydraulic equipment.
DANGER:
To avoid personal injury, keep hands and feet away from work-piece during operation.
WARNING:
Do not exceed equipment ratings. Overloading causes equipment failure and possible
personal injury. The pump tools are designed for a maximum pressure of 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm
2
).
Do not connect a jack or cylinder to a pump. Never set the relief valve to a higher pressure than the
maximum rated pressure of the pump. Higher settings may result in equipment damage and/or per-
sonal injury.
WARNING:
The system operating pressure must not exceed the pressure rating of the lowest rated
component in the system. Install pressure gauges in the system to monitor operating pressure.
CAUTION:
Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Avoid sharp bends and kinks when routing hydraulic
hoses. Using a bent or kinked hose will cause severe back-pressure. Sharp bends and kinks will inter-
nally damage the hose, leading to premature hose failure. Do not drop heavy objects on hose. A sharp
impact may cause internal damage to hose wire strands. Applying pressure to a damaged hose may
cause it to rupture.
IMPORTANT:
Do not lift hydraulic equipment by the hose or swivel couplers. Use the carrying handle
or other means of safe transport.
CAUTION
: Keep hydraulic equipment away from flames and heat. Excessive heat will soften seals,
resulting in fluid leaks. Heat also weakens hose materials. For optimum performance do not expose
equipment to temperatures of 65° C (170° F) or higher. Protect hoses and cylinders from weld spatter.
SAFE AND CORRECT USE
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
WORKING PRESSURE
The pump’s maximum working pressure is 10,000 PSI
(700kg/cm
2
). Make sure that all hydraulic equipment
such as tools, hoses, etc. used with this pump are
rated at 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm
2
) operating pressure.
INSTALL VENT PLUG
Remove shipping plug from reservoir and install
vent plug supplied with pump.
ADDING OIL
Remove oil filler cap and add TorcUP hydraulic oil
into reservoir. Oil level should not exceed 1” from
the reservoir cover. Oil should be ISO 32 or 46
weight.
*As a “rule of thumb” oil should be filled about an inch below the
top of the reservoir when the unit is powered down and all
connected tools or cylinders are retracted.
