Operating Instructions Hydraulic Squeeze Off Tool 180mm / 6" IPS / 200mm

Before Using

Check the level of oil in the jack to ensure at correct level.
It is important to ensure all component parts are present and in
serviceable condition. In addition, the setting of the limit stop (buffer)
plates should be checked before every operation to ensure they are
correct for the pipe size and wall thickness rating. Wrongly set buffer
plates may cause insufficient or excessive pipe compression leading to
pipe-wall damage, leakage or injury.
First Use Procedure
Before operating the tool for the first time, the jack must have its
hydraulic circuit 'purged' to eliminate any possible air in the system.
To Purge the System
1. Open the jack control valve using the jack handle, turning it anti-
clockwise and then, with the aid of the handle operate the hydraulic
jack several times.
2. Close the jack control valve fully using the jack handle. The tool is
now ready for use.
