4. INSTALLATION & OPERATING
4.1
INSTALLATION.
4.1.1
Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for working pieces.
DANGER! The press is top 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. DO NOT use a pallet truck.
Purge hydraulic system.
4.1.2
Before operating the press, the hydraulic system may require purging in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit.
Open the release valve (33) by turning anti-clockwise and pump the handle (28) several times. Close release valve.
Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this procedure may resolve the problem.
DANGER! Press is purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece is secured on the table to ensure loads that flex will not suddenly "give" causing danger to operator or damage to
component. Ensure you have read and understood chapter 1 safety instructions.
4.2
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
4.2.1
Position the work table at the required operating height by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame.
4.2.2
Place the heel blocks (12) onto bed frame (11), then place the workpiece onto the heel blocks and align beneath the ram as
required. Note: care must be taken to ensure a support block does not fall from the press work table. If necessary hold the configuration
in position with clamps.
4.2.3
Fully open the pump vent valve within the oil filler nut and leave open for normal operation. (See fig.5).
4.2.4
Close the release valve (33) by turning it clockwise until it is firmly closed.
4.2.5
Pump handle (28) to quickly bring the ram into position on the workpiece. Before applying any pressure to the workpiece, recheck
the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they cannot flex.
WARNING! DO NOT apply off centre loads.
4.2.6
Use the pump handle (17) for smaller more controlled movements and applying load onto workpiece.
4.2.7
When work is done, stop pumping the handle. Slowly and carefully free load from workpiece by turning the release valve (33)
anti-clockwise in small increments. Note: Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid ram corrosion.
4.2.8
Once ram has fully retracted, remove workpiece from work table.
5. MAINTENANCE
Note: Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by qualified person. Contact your Sealey dealer for details.
5.1
Periodically lubricate all joints and moving parts.
5.2
Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions.
5.3
Before checking the oil level make sure the ram is fully retracted. Remove the oil filler plug (30) from the top of the pump. The oil level
should be just below the bottom of the filler hole. If it needs filling, use only Sealey hydraulic jack oil. (DO NOT use brake fluid. Contact
your local Sealey dealer for details). Replace oil filler nut and purge system of air (see 4.1.2).
5.4
When replacing the hydraulic oil, ensure the piston is fully retracted.
5.5
If press efficiency begins to drop, purge the system to eliminate any air from the hydraulic system (see 4.1.2).
5.6
When not in use, store the press in a dry, childproof location with the ram and piston fully retracted.
