PRESS ASSEMBLY
3.1.1
Attach slings around the top crossbeam, using a suitable hoist or gantry lift the main frame (fig.1.1) out of the transportation packing
into an upright position. If a hoist or gantry is not available, ensure a minimum of two people lift the press from the packing.
3.1.2
Keep the main frame (fig.1.1) held safely upright. DO NOT allow to fall. Attach base sections (fig.1.3) to the left and right hand posts.
Only fully tighten the securing nuts and bolts when the base sections (fig.1.3) are square to the main frame (fig.1.1).
3.1.3
Insert the work table (fig.1.2) in position in the main frame (fig.1.1) and support with work table pins (fig.1.4).
4. INSTALLATION & OPERATING
WARNING! Before use, ensure that you have read, understood and apply Section 1 safety instructions.
4.1
INSTALLATION
4.1.1
Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for workpieces.
DANGER! The press is heavy. If it requires moving after assembly or for relocation, use suitable slings around the top crossbeam,
or lift direct with a forklift with the forks located under the top crossbeam, or ensure a minimum of two people lift the press.
4.2
PURGE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
4.2.1
Before operating the press, the hydraulic system (fig.1.6) may require purging in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during
transit.
4.2.2
Open the control valve (fig.2) by turning anti-clockwise and pump the handle (fig.1.7) 20 times.
4.2.3
Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this procedure may resolve the problem.
DANGER! The press is purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic unit can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece is secured on the work table to ensure loads that flex will not suddenly "give" causing danger to operator or
damage to component. Ensure you have read and understood Section 1 safety instructions.
4.3
SETTING THE WORK TABLE HEIGHT
4.3.1
To set the work table (fig.1.2) at the desired height it is advisable to obtain assistance. Remove the press plates (fig.1.5) from the work
table (fig.1.2) then remove the pins (fig.1.4). Position the work table (fig.1.2) at the required operating height, insert the pins (fig.1.4)
into the appropriate holes in the main frame (fig.1.1).
4.4
OPERATING
4.4.1
Place the press plates (fig.1.5) onto the work table (fig.1.2), then place workpiece onto the press plates (fig.1.5) and align as required.
