5. OPERATION
5.1.
Bleeding the hydraulic circuit.
5.1.1. Before first use, any air trapped in the hydraulic circuit will need to be bled.
5.1.2. To do this: open the release valve and pump 10 times.
5.1.3. Close the release valve and pump a further 10 times. The ram should extend.
5.1.4. Open the release valve again; the ram should retract.
5.1.5. If the hydraulic circuit still appears sluggish, repeat the process.
5.2.
Using the press
5.2.1. Insert the saddle into the ram head and secure with the grub screw (fig.9).
5 2.2. Lift or lower the table to the required height and insert the pins to support it.
5.2.3. Place the arbor plate on the press table, then place workpiece onto the arbor plate and align beneath the ram as required.
Note: care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table. If necessary hold the configuration in position with
clamps.
5.2.4. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise fully.
5.2.5. Pump to perform the pressing operation, monitoring the pressure via the pressure gauge.
5.2.6
When the operation is finished, release the pressure gradually by opening the release valve slowly.
5.2.7. When the ram has retracted fully, remove the work from the table.
5.2.8. When the press is not in use, ensure that the ram is retracted fully to help avoid corrosion.
6. MAINTENANCE
Note: Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by a qualified person. Contact your Sealey stockist for details.

To check hydraulic oil level, open the left hand top cover, and unscrew the oil filler screw (fig.5). If oil needs replacing, use only Sealey
hydraulic jack oil. DO NOT use brake fluid. Contact your local Sealey stockist for details). Replace oil filler screw and purge system of air.
6.4.
When replacing the hydraulic oil, ensure the piston is fully retracted.
6.5.
If press efficiency begins to drop, purge the system to eliminate any air from the hydraulic system (see 5.1.).
6.6.
When not in use, clean the press with a damp, soapy cloth. DO NOT use abrasive or solvent cleaners
