1)
Fill the reservoir with 2 Gallons of Hydraulic Oil. (Mobile AW-46 or
equivalent)
2)
Open the air regulator on top of unit, by turning the knob counter-
clockwise until it is loose.
3)
Open the vent needle valve completely, by turning the handle counter-
clockwise.
4)
Turn on the pump and run unit by holding toggle valve in "on" position
5)
Close the air regulator on top of unit, by turning the knob clockwise until
you reach 20 psi.
6)
Let the pump cycle slowly to prime itself. When a continuous stream of
fluid runs through the system and back into the reservoir, close the main
air shut-off ball valve.
7)
Adjust the air regulator on top of unit, until desired air pressure is
achieved, as indicated on the air gauge and push in the handle to lock
in place.
The desired air drive pressure is a factor of the final fluid pressure and the
pressure ratio of the pump. The pump in this unit has a 440:1 pressure ratio.
The air drive pressure required would be the final fluid pressure desired, di-
vided by 440.
Pa = Po/440 Pa = Air drive pressure Po = Required Outlet pressure
The unit is now ready for operation
THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING OF THE PUMP SYSTEM IS 25,000 PSI.
**NOTE: THE OUTLET PRESSURE SHOULD NEVER EXCEED 21,750 PSI,
THIS IS TO PREVENT OVER PRESSURIZATION OF THE TENSIONERS
WHICH COULD CAUSE DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
