WARNING
Continued
Power Supply (Electric)
•
Do not use an ungrounded (two-prong) extension cord with this unit.
•
Avoid any condition that could create an electrical hazard.
•
Any electrical work must be done by a qualified electrician.
•
If the power cord is damaged or wiring is exposed, replace or repair immediately.
•
Changing the voltage on jet motors is a complicated and, if not done correctly, dangerous procedure.
Consult the manufacturer for specific information before attempting any rewiring. Rewiring voids CSA
approval.
•
Disconnect the power supply before removing the electrical box cover or performing repairs or
maintenance.
•
All voltages must be wired for CCW rotation when viewed from the lead end (top) of the motor.
•
The line voltage must be the same as the voltage for which the pump is wired. (Ex: 110/115 volt pump
plugged into 110/115 volt power source.)
•
Check the total amperage draw for the electrical circuit you will be using. (Ex: Do not plug a motor or
motors that may draw 25 amps into a 20 amp fused electrical circuit.)
•
Do not attempt to increase the power line capacity by replacing a fuse with another fuse of higher value.
Overheating of the power line and the possibility of a fire can result.
•
To rewire a motor from one voltage to another, or to change the type of flow control valve (manual or
solenoid), consult the electrical schematic section in the Parts List #100384.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
Filling the Reservoir
NOTE: This pump has been shipped without oil in the reservoir. A high grade hydraulic oil has been
shipped with the pump, but if additional oil is required, use only an approved hydraulic oil.
1. Clean the area around the filler cap to remove all dust and grit. Any foreign material in the oil can damage the
polished surfaces and precision-fit components of this pump.
2. Retract all cylinders to the return position.
3. Remove the filler cap, and insert a clean funnel with a filter. Fill the reservoir with hydraulic oil to within 1” of the
cover plate. Replace the filler cap with the breather-hole OPEN.
4. Cycle the pump (with the cylinders attached) several times. Retract the cylinders, and check the oil level in the
pump reservoir.
Hydraulic Connections
1. Clean all the areas around the oil ports of the pump and ram.
2. Inspect all threads and fittings for signs of wear or damage, and replace as needed.
3. Clean all hose ends, couplers, or union ends.
4. Remove the thread protectors from the hydraulic oil outlets.
5. Connect the hose assembly to the hydraulic oil outlet, and couple the hose to the cylinder.
NOTE: Seal all
hydraulic connections with a high grade, non-hardening thread sealant, such as Power Team HTS6.
Teflon
tape can be used to seal hydraulic connections if only one layer of tape is used. Apply carefully, two threads
back, to prevent the tape from being pinched by the coupler and broken off inside the pipe end. Any loose pieces
of tape could travel through the system and obstruct the flow of oil or cause jamming of precision fit parts.
