The GB902 Hydraulic Powerunit is a portable power source designed to operate a wide range of
hydraulic installation tools with. It delivers up to 10,000 psi working pressure. It is fired manually
by the operator and will accept any GAGE BILT or HUCK® hydraulic tool regardless of trigger
style. The unit is activated via a control valve knob and foot pedal. The GB902 consists of a two
position air hydraulic pump, four way control valve and relief valve mounted on the reservoir.
Hydraulic quick disconnect couplers are supplied for connecting the tool hoses from the
installation equipment.
THE AIR PRESSURE TO THE UNIT CONTROLS THE OUTPUT AND RETURN PRESSURE TO
THE TOOL AND MUST BE PROPERLY ADJUSTED FOR EACH TOOL. CONSULT TOOL
SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM AND PERIPHERAL
EQUIPMENT MAY OCCUR IF PRESSURES ARE NOT PROPERLY ADJUSTED. CONSULT

INITIAL USE:

1. Filling the Reservoir.
A. Clean the area around the filler cap to remove all dust and grit. Any dirt or dust in the oil
can damage the pump.
B. Set all pistons to the return position.
C. Remove the filler cap and fill with hydraulic oil to within 3/4" from the top of the filler hole.
Replace filler breather cap.
D. Important: Use only a good quality hydraulic jack fluid. Never use brake fluid, transmission
fluid, turbine oil, motor oil, alcohol, glycerin etc. Use of other than good quality hydraulic oil
will void warranty and damage the pump, hose, and application. We recommend Mobil DTE
13M or equivalent.
E F . Cycle the pump (with tool attached) several times. Re-check the oil level in the pump reservoir
with the tool in the relaxed) position.
F. Check for leaks.
PREPARATION:
To avoid poor performance and down time, keep foreign material from getting into the hydraulic
system. Observe the following points:
1. Check tool manual for recommended pressures.
2. Wipe off couplers before connecting them.
3. Do not let hose fittings or couplers lie on the ground or dirty floor.
4. Clean area around filler cap before filling the reservoir with hydraulic fluid.
5. Use a clean funnel with filter.
