Parts List & Operating Instructions
Caution: To help prevent personal injury and/or equipment damage,
Read and carefully follow these instructions. Most problems with new equipment are caused by incorrect
installation or operation.
Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA requirements.
Keep tie rod nuts torqued at 300-320 ft. lbs.
Remove the crushed filter carefully. Sharp edges can scratch, cut, or puncture skin.
Hydraulic
If a hydraulic hose ruptures, bursts, or needs to be disconnected, immediately shut the pump OFF. Never
grasp a leaking, pressurized hose with your hands, because the force of escaping hydraulic fluid could cause
serious injury. Regularly inspect hoses for signs of wear or stress, and replace if needed.
Do not exceed the hydraulic pressure rating (3500 PSI) noted on the pump's nameplate. Do not tamper with
the internal relief valve; creating pressure beyond the rated capacity of this unit can result in personal injury.
Completely retract the cylinder before adding oil to the pump reservoir. Overfilling the pump reservoir can
cause personal injury due to excess pressure created in the reservoir when the cylinder is retracted.
Electric
Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician.
The crusher is designed for intermittent use only; continuous usage can cause the pump motor to overheat.
If motor temperature exceeds 150
Do not use an extension cord with this unit.
The pump must be connected to a single phase, 60 cycle, 230 volt power source with a minimum 20 amp rating.
If the circuit breaker or fuse opens continuously, locate the problem and correct it. Do not increase power line
capacity by replacing the fuse with another of higher value, because this could overheat the power line and
possibly cause a fire.
Avoid conditions that create an electrical hazard. If the power cord is damaged or the wiring exposed, replace
or repair the power cord immediately.
Disconnect the power supply before removing the motor control box cover or before performing repairs or
maintenance.
Keep the override switch clean and in working order.
1. Refer to the following color code chart, and install a 230 volt male power plug on the end of the cord set.
2. Install four leveling screws (Item #14, Sheet 1) on bottom of stand angle supports.
3. Connect the pump motor to a power source (single phase, 60 cycle, 230 volt, minimum 20 amp rating).
4. Cycle the pump and cylinder without building pressure. Retract the cylinder and check the oil level in the pump
reservoir. Note: If the cylinder does not advance, refer to the procedure for "Bleeding Air from the System."
