These instructions should be read and carefully followed. Most problems with new equipment are caused by
improper operation or installation.
This two-stage hydraulic hand pump can produce up to 10,000 PSI maximum line pressure. The handle effort at
10,000 PSI is 90 lbs. when the lower third of the handle stroke is used. The low pressure first stage unloads at 325
PSI and delivers 7.35 cu. in. of oil per full stroke of the handle to provide fast cylinder approach. The high pressure
second stage stage takes over when the pressure on the cylinder is more than 325 PSI. The second stage delivers
.294 cu. in. of oil per full stroke of the handle.
WARNING
: To help prevent personal injury,
Before operating the pump, all hose connections must be tighten with the proper tools. Do not
overtighten. Connections need only be tightened securely and leak-free. Overtightening may cause
premature thread failure or high pressure fittings to split at pressures lower than their rated capacities.
Should a hydraulic hose ever rupture, burst, or need to be disconnected, immediately shut off the pump
and shift the control valve twice to release all pressure.
pressure with your hands. The force of escaping hydraulic fluid could cause serious injury.
Do not subject the hose to any potential hazard such as fire, extreme heat or cold, sharp surfaces, heavy
impact. Do not allow the hose to kink, twist, curl, or bend so tightly that the oil flow within the hose is
blocked or reduced. Periodically inspect the hose for wear because any of these conditions can damage
the hose and result in personal injury.
Do not use the hose to move attached equipment. Stress may damage the hose and cause personal
injury.
Hose material and coupler seals must be compatible with the hydraulic fluid used. Hoses also must not
come in contact with corrosive materials such as creosote-impregnated objects and some paints.
Consult the manufacturer before painting a hose. Never paint the couplers. Hose deterioration due to
corrosive materials may result in personal injury.
Pump
Do not exceed the PSI rating noted on the pump nameplate or tamper with internal high pressure relief
valve. Creating pressure beyond rated capacities may result in personal injury.
Before adding oil, retract the system to prevent overfilling the pump reservoir. An overfill may cause
personal injury due to excess reservoir pressure created when cylinders are retracted.
Cylinder
Do not exceed rated capacities of the cylinders. Excess pressure may result in personal injury.
Do not set poorly-balanced or off-center loads on a cylinder. The load may tip and cause personal injury.
NOTE: Shaded areas reflect last revision(s) made to this form.
