WARNING:

Do not cycle tool without air bleeder assembly (704153), or the screw and stat-o-seal, installed in tool head. Severe

personal injury could result.

WARNING:

Use CAUTION when removing screws, air bleeder assembly (704153) and fill bottle (745263). Hydraulic oil may be

under pressure.

CAUTION:

Before filling handle assembly (722132), air piston assembly (704121) should be all the way down.

CAUTION:

When forcing piston rod assembly (731333) downward, with head cylinder assembly (731199) removed, hydraulic oil will

eject forcibly from handle assembly (722132).

CAUTION:

When bleeding tool, ensure tubing is free from kinks or other obstructions.

Note:

•

Air Bleeder Assembly (704153) and Fill Bottle (745263) (sold separately) are required.

•

To replace a few drops of oil use bleeder bottle (731163) (sold separately).

1. Stand handle assembly (722132) on floor, extend hoses upward (onto a table) with head assembly sitting on an elevated surface.

Turn air supply down to 50 - 60 psi. (3.4 bar - 4.1 bar).

2. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) from manifold-handle (730303) hole stamped "P". Attach air bleeder

assembly (704153) to manifold-handle (730303) hole stamped "P". Connect tool to air supply and cycle ten times (removing any air bubbles).

3. Disconnect air supply and remove air bleeder assembly (704153) (sold separately), replace with button head cap screw (402482)

and stat-o-seal (S572) on the manifold-handle (730303) hole stamped "P" and torque 35 - 40 inch lbs. (3.95 - 4.52 Nm). Do not over tighten.

4. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) from rear hole stamped "R" on manifold-handle (730303) and

relieve the pressure.

Caution:

5. Replace button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) on hole stamped "R" and torque 35 - 40 inch lbs. (3.95 - 4.52 Nm).

Do not over tighten

6. With piston (731211) at dimension .185" (4.7 mm) and air disconnected, remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572)

from front hole of head cylinder assembly (731199) and attach air bleeder assembly (704153).

7. Connect air supply and cycle tool ten times (removing any air bubbles) with piston at dimension .185" (4.7 mm). Disconnect air

supply, remove air bleeder assembly (704153) and replace button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) and torque 35 - 40 inch lbs.

(3.95 - 4.52 Nm). Do not over tighten.

8. Remove button head cap screw (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) from rear hole on head cylinder assembly (731199).

squirt out from bleeder hole, cover with a rag. Attach fill bottle (745263) and hand pump oil into the head cylinder assembly (731199) until no

air rises into fill bottle (745263). Remove fill bottle (745263) and replace B.H.C.S. (402482) and stat-o-seal (S572) on rear hole of

head cylinder assembly (731199) and torque 35 - 40 inch lbs. (3.95 - 4.52 Nm). Do not over tighten.

9. Connect air supply, cycle tool ten times.

10. Check stroke of .600" (15.24 mm) using instructions a thru c and diagrams below. We recommend using dial calipers.

a. With the actuator released, check dimension (A).

b. Holding actuator in, check dimension (B).

c. Subtract dimension (A) from dimension (B). If stroke is not within 1/64" (.396 mm) follow steps 11 & 12 below then re-

check stroke with calipers or depth gage (A-1935).

If stroke still fails to achieve .600" (15.24 mm) and is not within 1/64" (.396 mm), then repeat bleeding procedure until stroke met.

For your consideration, Gage Bilt offers a depth gage (A-1935) to help simplify and more accurately check your tool stroke.

Please contact Gage Bilt for more information.

11. Disconnect the air supply. Check dimension (A) (.185"). Remove both B.H.C.S.'s (402482) & stat-o-seals (S572) from top of head cylinder

assembly (731199) and push the piston (731211) forward to dim (A) (.185").

12. Attach fill bottle (745263) to the rear hole on head cylinder assembly (731199) and pump oil into the head cylinder (731199) until no air rises into

the fill bottle (745263). Remove the fill bottle (745263) and replace both of the B.H.C.S.'s (402482) and stat-o-seals (S572). Torque 35 - 40 inch lbs.

(3.95 - 4.52 Nm). Repeat step #10 (stroke check) above.
