3.1.4. Attach the pump according to model:
Should your model have a separate pump assembly plate, check side of main frame to locate assembly holes. If you have a choice
of left or right attachment, assemble the plate according to your operational requirement.
3.1.5. Attach the pump to the pump plate or to the appropriate attachment bars incorporated in the main frame using the bolts provided. On
models YK10B and YK10BLG the pump can be stowed on the side of the main frame when not in use by hanging it on the hook
provided.
3.1.6. Pressure gauge (where supplied).
If not already attached to the ram. Remove the dust cap hex bolt from the top of the ram and screw the pressure gauge in until tight.
DO NOT over-tighten. Note: LG models are supplied without gauge.
3.1.7. Remove the plastic safety bung from the end of the pump hose and connect the hose to the ram inlet valve.
3.1.8. Insert the work table support pins through the holes in the main frame. Taking firm hold of the table, tip it into a diagonal position so
that it can be introduced between the mainframe uprights and carefully lower it back to a horizontal position to rest on the support
pins.
 WARNING! Take care not to allow the working table to drop onto the pins and ensure your hands and fingers are clear of the
working table when lowering.
3.2.
Floor Press Assembly.
3.2.1. Identify and lay out parts. Bolt the cross legs to the bottom of the pre-assembled main frame and secure by bolting two support arms
from each leg to the main frame.
3.2.2. Bolt the base support bar between the main frame side supports. Other assembly instructions are the same as in 3.1.
4. INSTALLATION & OPERATING
4.1.
INSTALLATION.
4.1.1. Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for working pieces. Should you wish to mount
a bench press on a workbench or surface, ensure the bench is flat and level and is strong enough to support the press and any
workpiece during operation.
4.1.2. Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the
release valve and pump the handle several times. Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this process may resolve the
problem.
 DANGER! Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly "give way" causing danger to operator or the
component. Also ensure you have read and understood chapter 1 safety instructions.
4.2.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
4.2.1. Check that the hydraulic unit is fully closed ready for operating.
4.2.2. Position the working table at the required operating height by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame.
4.2.3
Screw the required adaptor to the ram and if required identify the matching cutout on the arbor plate to be used.
4.2.4. Position the arbor plate or press tools to be used onto the work table and align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the work table
or arbors and align beneath the ram as required. Note: Care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table.
If necessary hold the configuration in position with clamps.
4.2.5. Operate the pump slowly until the ram is close to or just touching the workpiece. Before applying real pressure to the workpiece
recheck the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they cannot flex to
breaking point. DO NOT exceed the stroke indicated on the label or the red mark on the piston and do not apply off centre loads.
4.2.6. When work is complete release the pressure using the knob with four lugs and the piston and the ram head will retract automatically.
Note: Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid corrosion.
5. MAINTENANCE
Note: Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by qualified person. Contact your Sealey dealer for details.
5.1.
Check all fittings are tight before each use.
5.2.
Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
5.3.
Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions.
5.4.
Should you need to replace the oil ensure the piston is fully retracted. An excess of oil will render the press inoperative.
Use only appropriate Sealey hydraulic jack oil. DO NOT use brake fluid. Contact your local Sealey dealer for details.
Purge the system to remove any air.
5.5.
Check your model parts information for spares. Repair kits are also available.
