Fluid Power System | Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) •Follow any warning s ckers and instruc onal s ckers on the HPU, as well as reading the manual. •Ensure the HPU has a flow of 4-21 GPM (15-79LPM) @ 2000-3000 PSI (155-206 Bar) and make sure the system opera ng pressure is set between 1500 PSI to 3000PSI(103-206 Bar.) The normal pressure for most applica ons is 2800 PSI. -
Page 8: Hydraulic Connec Ons
Hydraulic Connec ons 1. Clean the ma ng surface of the couplings to avoid contamina ng the circuit. 2. Pull the connec on sleeve of the female coupling forward 3. Align the female and male coupling holding the connec on sleeve and thread together and turning the sleeve. -
Page 9: Pump Tes Ng Procedures
Pump System Test Procedures Dry Run Spin Test The FF-3D-SM is capable of Running Dry for extended periods of me, and it is best prac ce to perform a run dry test before using the pump. To perform this test, first double check that all hydraulic couplings are fully ghtened, then connect the hydraulic system and run the FF-3D-SM pump dry with varying speeds for 1-2 minutes. -
Page 10: Shutdown And Disassembly
Shutdown and Disassembly Shut Down •Slowly shut down the power unit, star ng/stopping fluid flow suddenly can cause damage to the pump and motor seals. In case of Emergency, you can use the emergency shutdown on the hydraulic power unit. Pull T handle to close engine air inlet valve. -
