OPERATION
CONTROLS
Hand Crank: (Part No. 701653) on the side of the press is to assist in lowering and raising the
table of the press once the table pins are removed. Do not forget to replace the pins once you
have the table at the desired height.
Head Positioning Handwheel: can be loosened to allow the head to move along the upper
frame track and can be positioned at any length on the top frame. After in position, tightening
the handwheel completely will keep the head in place.
Handle: (Part No. 218) is the pressure supply source and is manually operated with up and
down motion. IMPORTANT! Always pump the piston down 1/2" before the nose piece meets the
work. Damage to the piston may occur if not pumped before meeting the work.
Release Valve Handwheel: releases the pressure to let the ram return to its raised position.
Always keep the valve firmly closed when operating the press until you want to release the
pressure.
Screw Handwheel: (Part No.
assembly. Always keep the portion of the screw extending out of the piston as short as possible.
Instead of overextending the screw it is recommended to raise the table rather than running the
screw out of its limit of travel. NEVER EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED STROKE OF 4 INCHES
FOR THIS PRESS. EXCEEDING THE STROKE WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE INNER
PACKINGS.
MAINTENANCE
Recommended to replace hydraulic oil every 6 months of machine use.
LUBRICATION
• Keep all working parts of the press well-oiled for easier operation.
• Keep a light film of oil over the entire surface of the ram to prevent rust.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PUMP PACKING LEAKAGE
If oil leaks past the pump packing, tighten the pump packing nut (Part No. 551A) until the pump
handle moves with resistance, then slack off just enough to cause the handle to stay in position
by itself. After long periods of operation, it may be necessary to install new pump packings.
