  • Page 6 HYDRO-PNEUMATIC SERIES PRESSES OVERVIEW, INSTALLATION, AND OPERATION 1.5 Function Cylinder Retracted For the cylinder to retract, compressed air is supplied to ports A1 and A2, fully retracting the high pressure, rapid advance and intensifier pistons. Rapid Advance For the cylinder to begin rapid advance, compressed air is supplied to port B1. This forces the rapid advance piston down towards the working end of the cylinder, forcing oil from the reservoir to the top of the intensifier piston until resistance is met.
  • Page 7 HYDRO-PNEUMATIC SERIES PRESSES OVERVIEW, INSTALLATION, AND OPERATION Power Stroke For the cylinder to begin the power stroke, compressed air is supplied to port B2. This forces the high pressure piston and rod down towards the working end of the cylinder. The high pressure piston and rod travel until reaching the high pressure seal, which will be the point at which pressure begins to build.
