4. ASSEMBLY
Unpack the product and check contents. Should there be any damaged or missing parts contact your supplier immediately. Take care
to ensure safety when removing main frame from packing as the unit is very heavy.
Refer to attached Parts List
4.1.
Identify and lay out parts.
4.2.
Bolt the cross legs to the bottom of the pre-assembled main frame.
4.3.
Bolt the ram supporting plates to the head of the main frame. (Tighten nuts finger tight at this stage.)
4.4.
Remove straight adaptor and pass the ram through the upper support plate.
4.5.
Screw the straight adaptor onto the ram on the lower side of the ram support plates and tighten.
4.6.
Tighten the support plate securing bolts.
4.7.
Attach the pump. Bolt pump through the frame. There is a choice of left or right attachment, assemble the plate according to your
operational requirement. Screw in the pump handle.
4.8.
PRESSURE GAUGE
4.8.1.
Remove the dust cap hex bolt from the top of the ram and screw the pressure gauge in until tight.
8
DO NOT
over-tighten.
4.8.2.
Remove the plastic safety bung from the end of the pump hose and connect the hose to the ram inlet valve.
4.9.
Insert the table support pins through the holes in the main frame. Taking firm hold of the table, tip it into a diagonal position so that it
can be introduced between the mainframe uprights and carefully lower it back to a horizontal position to rest on the support pins.
WARNING!
Take care not to allow the working table to drop onto the pins and ensure your hands and fingers are clear of the working
table when lowering.
5. INSTALLATION
5.1.
Securely mount bench press on a workbench or surface, ensure the bench is flat and level and is strong enough to support the press
and any workpiece during operation.
5.2.
Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the
release valve and pump the handle several times and close the release valve. Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating
this process may resolve the problem.

DANGER!
Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly “give way” causing danger to operator or
the component. Also ensure you have read and understood chapter 1 safety instructions.
5.3.
The transit valve on the bottom of the pump (opposite end to the handle) needs to be open during operation.
6. OPERATION
6.1.
Check that the hydraulic unit is fully closed ready for operating.
6.2.
Position the working table at the required operating height by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame.
6.3.
Position the arbor plate or press tools to be used onto the work table and align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the work table
or arbors and align beneath the ram as required.
Note:
Care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table.
If necessary hold the configuration in position with clamps.
6.4.
Operate the pump slowly until the ram is close to or just touching the workpiece. Before applying real pressure to the workpiece
recheck the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they cannot flex to
breaking point.
DO NOT
exceed the stroke indicated on the label or the red mark on the piston and
DO NOT
apply off centre loads.
6.5.
When work is complete release the pressure using the knob with four lugs and the piston and the ram head will retract automatically.
Note:
Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid corrosion.
7. MAINTENANCE
Note:
Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by qualified person. Contact your Sealey stockist for details.
7.1.
Check all fittings are tight before each use.
7.2.
Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
7.3.
Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions.
7.4.
Should you need to replace the oil ensure the piston is fully retracted. An excess of oil will render the press inoperative.
Use only appropriate Sealey hydraulic jack oil.
DO NOT
use brake fluid. Contact your local Sealey stockist for details. Purge the
system to remove any air.
7.5.
Check your model parts information for spares. Repair kits are also available.
