Operation Operation WARNING! Danger due to insufficient qualification of persons! Unqualified persons can not assess the risks involved in handling the workshop press and expose themselves and others to the risk of serious or fatal injuries - All work should only be carried out by qualified persons. - Keep inadequately qualified persons out of the work area.
- The operator should have a basic knowledge of this type of machine. - Operators should not wear wide garments, necklaces, rings, etc. to pre- vent them from being pulled into the running machine. 8.1 Set table height WPP 15 and 20 WARNING! Risk of crushing! If the press table is not completely resting on the support pin, it can cause bruising.
Step 5:Turn the crank of the winch counterclockwise and lower the press ta- ble down to the support bolts. Fig. 11: Positioning the table height WPP 15, 20 and 30 Step 1: Lift the press table with your hands. Step 2: Pull the support bolt out of the stator holes on the raised side. Hold the press table in his position.
Operation ATTENTION! Never operate the handwheel while the fingers are near the pulley. It is forbidden to remove the support bolts unless the cables are properly attached to the handwheel. 8.3 Set up the workspace Step 1: Place the support prisms or other support and fixtures adapted to the workpiece on the press table.
Operation 8.4 Build up the pump pressure Step 1: Insert the pump lever into the socket provided. Step 2: Move the diverter valve to the right position to clear the path for filling the hydraulic cylinder. Step 3: Move the lever up and down to fill the hydraulic cylinder with oil until the press ram contacts the workpiece.
Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance Tips and recommendations To ensure that the workshop press is always in good oper- ating condition, regular care and maintenance work must be carried out. WARNING! Danger due to insufficient qualification of persons! Insufficiently qualified personnel can not assess the risks associated with repairs to the workshop press and expose themselves and others to the risk of serious or fatal injuries.
Cleaning and maintenance Remove excess grease or spilled oil with a dry and lint-free cloth. Treat bare metallic work surfaces with anti-rust spray. 9.2 Visual inspection Interval or operating hours daily Visual inspection for contamination: if necessary clean. weekly Visual inspection of the workshop press, in particular of the press table and the support bolts: if necessary, replace damaged components or arrange for repair.
