IMPORTANT
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS & CAUTIONS. USE THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.

SAFETY

• Familiarise yourself with the applications, limitations, and hazards of the press.
• Maintain the press in good condition (use an authorized service agent).
• Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Unauthorized parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
• Keep the press clean for the best and safest performance.
• Locate the press in a suitable work area, on a surface that is stable, level, dry, not slippery, and capable of sustaining the load.
• Keep the area clean and tidy and free from unrelated materials and ensure there is adequate lighting.
• WARNING:  Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating the press.
• Remove ill-fitting clothing. Remove ties, watches, rings, and other loose jewelry, and contain long hair.
• Keep hands and body clear of the work table when operating the press.
• Maintain correct balance and footing. DO NOT overreach. Ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
• Keep children and unauthorized persons away from the working area.
• DO NOT use the press for a task it is not designed to perform.
• DO NOT adjust or tamper with the safety valve or make any modifications to the press.
• DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the press. Avoid applying excessive force, use the pressure gauge to determine the applied load.
• DO NOT apply off-center loads. Ensure that workpiece is centrally loaded and correctly secured before operating the press.
• DO NOT allow the workpiece or the V blocks plates to fall from the press workbench.
• DO NOT get the press wet or use it in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.
• DO NOT operate the press when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or intoxicating medication.
• DO NOT climb upon the press.
• DO NOT use if bent, broken, cracked, leaking, or otherwise damaged, or if the press has been subjected to a shock load.
• DO NOT operate the press if any parts are missing as this may cause failure and/or possible personal injury.
• DO NOT use the press to compress a spring or any other item that could disengage and cause a potential hazard.
• DO NOT stand directly in front of the loaded press and never leave the loaded press unattended.
• DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the press.

DANGER:  This model is purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic unit can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly give way, causing danger to the operator or
the workpiece.

WARNING: DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL, as this may cause serious damage to the press and will invalidate the warranty.  When not in use, release pressure from the pump and clean the press. Stand or store the V blocks in a safe, childproof location.

WARNING: The warnings, cautions, and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors that cannot be built into this product but must be applied by the operator.

ASSEMBLY

Unpack the product and check the contents. Should there be any damaged or missing parts contact your supplier immediately?
DANGER: Take care to ensure safety when moving the main frame from packing as the unit is very heavy. Use a suitable hoist or gantry. Refer to the attached parts list.
Seek assistance from another person on the assembly of heavy parts. Assemble the press, if possible, in close proximity to where the press will be located.

ATTACH SUPPORT FEET

Attach load slings around the top cross member of the frame and using a suitable hoist or gantry, slowly, and in a controlled manner lift the frame up and out of the transportation crate, into an upright position.

• WARNING: Take care when lifting the frame not to damage the pre-assembled ram assembly, pump assembly, bed frame assembly, and winch assembly. Keep the frame assembly in an upright position, held safely by the load slings.
• DANGER: DO NOT allow the frame to fall over.

1. Select the support foot with the foot pump attached (fig 1 #49) and locate it on the lower right side of the press base frame (fig 1 #4).
2. Locate the inner vertical edge of the support foot with a cut-out in fram e and secure with bolts (fig 2 #11), nuts (fig 2 #12), and washers (fig 2 #71).
3. Repeat for the left-hand side support foot (figs 1, 2 #10).
4. It is recommended that, for the safest operation, the press is secured to the floor using the fixing holes in the feet.
5. Use concrete anchor bolts or lag bolts for wooden floors, (not included), to secure to the floor.

ATTACH PUMP HANDLE

1. Fig 3: Pump assembly handles item numbers.
2. Assemble part #56 with part #1 and secure with bolt #58 and nut #60.
3. Assemble part #59 with part #56 and part #1 secure with bolt # 56 and nut #60.
4. Assemble part #34 to part #59.

ATTACH PNEUMATIC PUMP HOSES

1. Remove part transport plug from part #28.
2. Install part #28 into connection on part #1.
3. Install part #45 onto the back of the frame, as shown in an enlarged view.
4. Install air hoses #44 and #47 into connector #48, as shown in an enlarged view.

AIR SUPPLY

1. Connect a compressed air supply hose (fig 9), minimum diameter 1 /2”, to the 1/4” BSP inlet connector fitted at the rear of the press frame (fig 8 #45).
2. The recommended working air supply pressure is between 130.5-174psi

OPERATION

• REMOVE TRANSPORT PIN: Refer to fig 10A.
• WARNING: This pin MUST be removed prior to using the press.

OPERATION

1. Ensure the press is fully assembled and bolted to a firm, regular horizontal surface.
2. Only to be used by fully trained operatives who have read and fully understood the whole of this manual.
3. Ensure the working table is at the correct height and locked into position with its pins.
4. Leave enough space around the press whilst it is being used.
5. V blocks, #19, must be used in pairs not singly
6. Close release valve, #36, by turning clockwise.
7. Align the workpiece and the piston so that the workpiece is properly centered.
8. Use either the handle or the air/hydraulic foot pump to lower the ram to the workpiece.
9. When work is finished, stop pumping and open the release valve to raise the ram. Remove the workpiece.
