General Safety and Operating Instructions
1. Always turn the power unit to the "off" position and
place the control valve in the "off" position for any
service or clearing work. You should also "dump"
the valve by pushing it all the way to one side and
then the other – this releases any stored energy and
eliminates tool creep.
2. Familiarize yourself with the tool(s) and control
valve, moving the control valve back and forth until
familiar with the valve action and operation. NEVER
put any part of your body between the moving parts
of this or any other tool!
3. Using a hydraulic tool is a one person operation
with no exceptions.
4. The mini spreader is designed to get into tight
places and do the lion's share of your spreading,
however it is not designed to replace a full size
spreader. Inspect the spreader arms and tips after
each use to make sure it is in good condition.
Inspection of the tips before each use is a MUST! If
tips are suspect in any way, pull the tool out of
service immediately. Remember you are working
with many thousands of pounds of force.

under extreme pressure and is a sealed unit. Under
normal use, it does not require service. The factory
sealed cylinder must NEVER be taken apart. Doing
so will void your warranty and could potentially
result in severe injure or even death.

tampered with, any defect or malfunctions are
covered by the Champion limited lifetime warranty
(to the original purchaser).

speed can be slowed down or increased by moving
the trigger accordingly. If the trigger is opened
