Always use the longest extension tube possible to avoid minimizing the
tonnage capacity.
ADAPTERS
Extension Tubes (D) extend the ram’s reach between 3-7/8 to 45 in. Extension
tubes are attached end-to-end from. Always arrange multiple extension tubes
with the longest piece connected to the ram piston and the shortest piece
connected to the accessory.
The male connector (M) is inserted into the ram’s base. Accessories or
extension tubes can then be attached to the ram.
PUSHING
The primary method to modify the structure is pushing the damaged structure
back into place
1. Install the flat base or body toe at the bottom of the ram. This provides a flat
area to brace against and spreads out the force, allowing the narrower
accessory on the piston head to concentrate the force and reshape the metal.
2. Determine the distance between the bracing point and the damaged structure
by holding the ram in place. Add extension tubes to the piston end to extend
the reach, remembering to accommodate the length of the accessory. The
distance left should be less than the ram piston’s stroke length (see
Specifications). Stop and add additional extension tubes as needed.
a. Depending on the workspace, you may need to add an extension
between the ram and the flat base/toe plunger to fit it into the
available space.
3. Choose the appropriate accessory based on the type of repair being
attempted and install it on the ram piston.
a. The body toe (J) must be aligned so the offset flange is aligned with
the length of the flat base. This will keep the force parallel to the
direction of the bend. Using the body toe to push in any other
configuration can result in a failure and result in damage or injury.
This does not apply when using the body toe as a base.
