SET UP
1. Anchor press to floor using 11/16" holes on the base angles of the press.
2. Fill press with oil. We recommend DTE Mobil 24 or equivalent hydraulic oil.
3. Oil Capacity: 7 Gallons
CAUTION: Strainer or filter should be used to make sure no contaminants get into
reservoir.
OPERATION
HOIST
Press is equipped with hoist and hoist handle to raise and lower the upper platen to desired working
height.
To change the vertical position of the upper platen sufficient tension must be applied to the hoist
cable to permit removal of the table pins, then the upper platen may be moved to desired working
position and all the table pins must be reinserted.
Be sure all table pins are on place before applying any pressure. Also make sure there is
slack in the hoist cable before pressing. It is advisable to lower the upper platen opposed to
running the ram and lower platen to the limit of its stroke.
RAM MOVEMENT
• To raise ram/platen, turn the release valve handle clockwise to close.
• Press "Raise" button to raise ram, ram will stop when button is released.
• After the work is contacted the press will build pressure until maximum tonnage or stroke is
reached or the button is released.
• To release pressure and lower ram, turn release valve counterclockwise to open. Platen will
return to its starting position.
MAINTENANCE
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.
REPLACING HYDRAULIC OIL
Recommended to replace hydraulic oil every 6 months of machine use.
*Amount needed may vary dependent on machine use*
