1. CHECK FOR PROPER ELETRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE CONNECTING.
2. THIS MOTOR MAY SPARK. DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE OR IN PRESENCE
OF CONDUCTIVE LIQUIDS.
a. Do not use a power or extension cord that is damaged or has exposed wiring.
b. All single phase motors come equipped with a three prong grounding type plug to fit the proper
grounded type electrical outlet. Do not use a two prong ungrounded extension cord as the pump’s
motor must be grounded.
3. COMPARE MOTOR NAMEPLATE AGAINST POWER AVAILABILITY TO PREVENT MOTOR BURN

Prior to Use
Check hydraulic oil level to prevent possible pump burnout. Open the filler plug located on the reservoir plate. Look
at oil fill level on the oil sight gauge. The oil level should be approximately 2” from the top of the reservoir plate-
with motor off. Add TORC, LLC. oil as necessary. Do not mix different grades of oil.
Make sure all desired gauge, valve, hose and quick coupler connections are tight and secure before operating.
The use of a pressure gauge is required for normal pump operation. Mounted on the manifold, the gauge permits the
operator to monitor the load on the wrench. 114% calibrated gauges are available for most applications.

Operation
Before starting your Electric Pump, connect your hydraulic hoses to both the pump and torque wrench.
Place the toggle switch in the ON position and the rocker switch on the hand control pendant in the OFF position.
To start the pump, depress and release the safety button.
NOTE: The safety button is an added feature designed to prevent premature starting and should
only be depressed by the tool operator.
Push the rocker switch to advance and release. This will start your pump and place it in the retract position.
NOTE: Read the section labeled TORC OPERATIONS and SETTING TORQUE prior to
installing the torque wrench onto the application.
Your TORC hydraulic pump has been designed with an auto shut off system. The pump will shut off after
approximately 30 seconds of non-cycling. This will prevent overheating and unnecessary wear which will prolong
the life of your pump. To restart the pump, the yellow safety button must again be depressed prior to use.
