DUCKBILL SPREADER SET-UP
1. Screw the handle (#12) into the pump’s handle socket (#13).
2. Screw the hydraulic hose (B) onto the duckbill spreader’s (F) inlet port
until hand tight.
OPERATION
The Porta-Power Repair Kit has various attachments to push, pull, stretch and
spread metal structure and panels to reshape them. The pump works in both
the vertical and horizontal position. The oil filling screw must be at the top when
used in a vertical position.
1. Set-up the ram or duckbill spreader. Attach to the pump.
2. Loosen the oil filling screw (#35) several turns to allow air to enter the pump.
3. Open the pump valve (#29) clockwise to allow oil to flow to the ram.
4. Place a block of wood or similar buffer at the end of the accessory that is
bracing the ram to protect the vehicle structure.
5. Pump the handle slowly until the accessory touches the workpiece. Continue
pumping to apply pressure to the workpiece until it is reshaped as desired.
6. Slowly turn the pump valve counterclockwise one turn to release the
pressure and allow the oil to flow back into the pump’s cylinder. Tighten
the pump valve.
7. Tighten the oil filling screw until tight.
8. Remove and store the attachments and extensions.
ACCESSORY
Each accessory can be used by itself or in conjunction with other accessories to
apply force against a vehicle’s panels and frame to reshape or realign them.
REDUCED TONNAGE CAPACITY
The base ram set-up is an accessory directly attached to the ram piston and
another to the base via the male connector. This retains the full tonnage capacity
(see Specifications). Reduce the tonnage capacity by 50 percent for each extra
attachment or extension tube added to the ram. Two extension tubes or an
extension tube with another accessory will reduce the tonnage capacity to 25
percent (10 ton to 5 ton for extension tube to 2.5 ton for the third attachment).
