ET3000-EP Set-Up & Operating Instructions
1. Open vent plug on reservoir before operation.
Release the pusher clip and slide pusher back. Note:
periodically lubricate the die ring with Danfoss
T-400-G lubricant. When crimping with Danfoss
tooling insert the T-420-25 adapter die ring into the
base plate. Insert the proper sized collet.
3. Loosen knob and tilt press as necessary. Insert hose
assembly from below the base plate and between
the collet halves. Align crimp scribe line on end
fitting with top of collet, making sure that collet
halves are evenly matched.
5. Press pump switch to the top detent “ON” position.
Press pendant switch and hold until the spacer
ring contacts the base ring, indicating the crimp is
complete..
2. Select the proper Aeroquip hose and end fitting.
Insert the hose into the end fitting making sure
that the hose is bottomed into the end fitting. For
insertion depth information, reference figure on
page 12.
4. Holding uncrimped hose assembly in place, reference Hose End and
Tool Selector Chart found in Product Advisor for correct spacer ring.
Note: when crimping hose that does not require a stepped spacer ring,
the T-480 -68 pusher extension must be used to prevent damage to the
pusher. Position spacer ring on top of collet with proper side of spacer
ring facing up as shown on page 13 and slide pusher forward, making
sure pusher clip has locked.
6. Release pendant switch to retract pusher and move pump switch to
the middle “OFF” position. Release the pusher clip and slide the pusher
back to access tooling. Remove the spacer ring and the crimped hose
assembly from below the base plate and between the collet halves.
Note: visually inspect the crimped end. Check nominal crimp diameter
and verify that the crimp is within specification, on page 14.
