3. ASSEMBLY
Unpack the product and check contents. If there are any damaged or
missing parts contact your supplier immediately. Take care to ensure
safety when removing main frame parts from packing as the unit is
very heavy. We recommend that the press should be assembled by
two people.
3.1. Use the assembly diagram overleaf as your guide. Lay all
parts and assemblies out before beginning. The following
procedure is recommended:
3.2. Attach one base leg (01) and lower cross member (08) to left
post (09) using bolts (03), washers (04), lock washers (05)
and nuts (06) to secure, then repeat with the other base
leg (01), attaching it to right post (09) and the lower cross
member (08). Make sure that the joining plates on the two
posts are facing outwards.
3.3 Place the assembly in an upright position and attach two
diagonal braces (02) to each base leg and post using bolts
(03), washers (04), lock washers (05) and nuts (06).
3.4. Attach the upper cross beam (20) to the left and right posts
(09) using bolts (16), washers (17), lock washers (18) and
nuts (19). Place the bolt heads on the inside of the frame.
3.5. Bolt the ram (15) to the underside of the plate welded into the
centre of the cross beam using four M10 hex socket cap
bolts with washers (04), lock washers (05) and nuts (06).
Ensure that the ram goes on the right way round so that the
pressure gauge mounting tube protrudes through the hole in
the plate.
3.6. Insert the nylon sealing ring (22) into the internal thread of
the fitting on the mounting tube and screw the pressure
gauge (23) into the fitting. Before tightening the fitting make
sure that the gauge is facing in the best direction for viewing
during operation.
3.7. Take note of which side the ram inlet port is facing and mount
the pump assembly (26) onto the adjacent post using the
upper two joining plates. Fix in position using four M10 x 20
bolts (25) washers (04) and lock washers (05). The pumping
handle should be at the base of the pump.
3.8. Connect the hydraulic hose (24) to the ram inlet port.
3.9. To mount the work table first slide a frame pin (10) through
each post ensuring they are both at the same height.
