1. Operating The Pump For The First Time
A.
Valve and hose connections must be tight, and the bladder must be filled to the proper fluid level.
• Refer to “Hydraulic Connections” and “Checking Hydraulic Fluid and Filling the Bladder” under Set-
up Instructions.
B. Set valve to the neutral or return position and jog the pump on and off several times by pressing the
start button and allowing the pump to idle for 1 to 3 minutes.
C. Set valve to proper position / port to Advance and retract the accessory tooling (e.g. cylinder, torque
wrench, spreader, etc.) to its full travel. Do this several times to eliminate air from the system and build
pressure.
• For more complete instructions, refer to the section titled “Bleeding The System” under
Set-up Instructions.
D.
With the accessory tooling retracted completely, check the fluid level in the bladder and add fluid if
necessary.
• Refer to “Checking Hydraulic Fluid and Filling The Bladder” under Set-up Instructions.
E. The pump is now ready to be put into regular operation.
2. Attaching And Operating Hand Pendant.

by allowing the user to operate the unit with a remote switch.
• The hand pendant has an 11 ft. cable and overrides the built in start button.
A.
Notice the Alignment Pin in the cable fitting on the end of the pendant cable.
B.
Notice the Alignment Groove in the fitting on the pump unit and insert the pendant cable as shown.
C.
Secure the connection by threading (rotating clockwise) the cable fitting into the pump unit fitting.
