Product Usage Instructions
About Your Hydraulic Power Pack
The Brave Hydra BuddyTM Hydraulic Power Pack is a self-contained
hydraulic power unit that provides portable hydraulic power for
remotely powering hydraulic equipment. It can also be mounted into
equipment as a primary hydraulic power source, given the flow,
pressure, reservoir capacity, and duty cycle are carefully
considered.
Product Suitability and Limitations
The power pack is suitable for various applications including
agriculture, construction, trades, lifting, jacking, equipment
repair, and fabrication work. However, it is important to review
the specific flow and pressure rating of the unit to ensure it will
provide adequate system flow, pressure, and reservoir capacity for
the intended application.
The HBHS units driven by the Honda GX630 V-Twin engine can be
field retrofitted with a return line heat exchanger for
applications that require additional cooling of the hydraulic
fluids. The return line heat exchanger kit includes a mounting
bracket assembly, 12 VDC fan cooler, appropriate plumbing, wire
harness, and hardware.
It is important to note that only the HPHS units with the Honda
V-Twin engine can support the 12 Volt heat exchanger (cooler) due
to the required amp draw from the 12 VDC fan and on-board charging
system of the Honda GX630 engine.
Power packs without a return cooler should not be used in
applications where hydraulic oil temperatures exceed 180 degrees F
for any amount of time. If the hydraulic system reaches 180 degrees
F, the system should be shut down immediately and the application
should be reviewed.
For any questions regarding the appropriate use of this
Hydraulic Power Pack, optional accessories, or any other inquiries,
please contact Brave Customer Service at
1-800-350-8739.
Hydraulic Hose and Fitting Requirements
The rated working pressure of hydraulic hoses must be equal to
or higher than the maximum pressure rating of the hydraulic unit.
Each of the HBHR and HBHS units has a unique pressure rating they
are capable of achieving. Please refer to the specific assembly
flow and pressure rating and size hydraulic hose and fittings
appropriately.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
About Your Hydraulic Power Pack
Product Suitability and Limitations
Our self-contained hydraulic power units are compact and offer portable
hydraulic power for remotely powering hydraulic equipment. Our power units can
also be mounted into equipment as a primary hydraulic power source given the
flow, pressure, reservoir capacity, and duty cycle are carefully considered.
Typical applications include agriculture, construction, trades, lifting,
jacking, equipment repair, and fabrication work.
HBHR units come factory with a 4-way directional control valve with integral
system relief valve. HBHR units are equipped with ½” quick-disconnects that
are installed into the work ports of the directional control valve. HBHS units
come factory with a system relief valve.
The HBHS units can also be field retrofitted to include optional bulkhead
mounted ½” quick-disconnects with appropriate plumbing kit, and a single 4-way
directional control valve with integral relief valve.
The HBHS units driven by the Honda GX630 V-Twin engine can also be field
retrofitted with a return line heat exchanger for applications that run more
continuous and require additional cooling of the hydraulic fluids. The return
line heat exchanger kit comes with a mounting bracket assembly, 12 VDC fan
cooler, appropriate plumbing, wire harness, and hardware.
Each unit has a specific flow and pressure rating that should be carefully
reviewed to ensure the power pack will provide adequate system flow, pressure,
& reservoir capacity for the given application being considered.
Only the HPHS units with the Honda V-Twin engine can support the 12 Volt heat
exchanger (cooler) due to the required amp draw from the 12 VDC fan and on-
board charging system of the Honda GX630 engine.
Power packs without a return cooler should not be used in applications where
hydraulic oil temperatures exceed 180 degrees F for any amount of time. If the
hydraulic system reaches 180 degrees F. the system should be shut down
immediately and the application should be reviewed.
Contact Brave Customer Service at
1-800-350-8739 about the appropriate
use of this Hydraulic Power Pack, optional accessories or any other questions.
Hydraulic Hose and Fitting Requirements
The rated working pressure of hydraulic hoses must be equal to or higher than
the maximum pressure rating of the hydraulic unit. Each of the HBHR and HBHS
units have a unique pressure rating they are capable of achieving. Please
refer to the specific assembly flow and pressure rating and size hydraulic
hose and fittings appropriately.
½” quick-disconnects can be provided for each HBHS unit upon request. If the
couplers provided do not interchange with the powered equipment, replace with
couplers that match. Brave recognizes that couplers are a necessity for
quickly connecting and disconnecting equipment however feel that if the self-
contained power pack is mounted into a piece of equipment for final assembly
that quick-disconnects, adapter fittings, and hydraulic hose plumbing are
carefully reviewed to maximize the performance of the hydraulic system. Adding
unnecessary couplers, adapter fittings, etc. will increase pressure drop in a
hydraulic system and reduce the efficiency of the hydraulic system.

Operation
Pre-Start Checklist
CAUTION: No Oil in Engine Crankcase
Add the correct amount of oil to engine crankcase or engine will be damaged
beyond repair and not covered by warranty.
CAUTION: No Hydraulic Oil in Tank
Add the correct amount of hydraulic oil to the reservoir before use.
1. All HBHS600 series units will require the fuel system to be mounted to the
fuel tank bracket; all HBHS300 series units will require the oil filter head
and canister be installed; all HBHR units will require the valve handle be
mounted and quick connect fittings be installed (if desired).
2. Check / add engine crankcase oil 3. Check / add hydraulic oil 4. Inspect
hydraulic system (with engine off) 5. Check Implement Hydraulic System 6. Fill
engine gasoline tank (upper tank) 7. Inspect fuel system for leaks (with
engine off) These procedures are discussed in detail below:
1. See separate assembly instruction insert applicable to your unit.
2. Check / add engine crankcase oil
· Check the oil level daily using the dipstick and add oil as needed. · Using
a funnel, add oil up to the FULL mark on the dipstick with the recommended oil
type for your
engine and expected ambient conditions. · Replace engine crankcase fill cap to
finger tight. · (See engine Owner’s Manual for oil type and capacity, and more
detailed oil check/fill instructions.)
3. Check / add hydraulic oil
· Verify that the oil is at the top of the gauge on the hydraulic reservoir. ·
If hydraulic oil level is low: Remove hydraulic tank fill cap and add 10 wt.
AW32, ASLE H-150, or
ISO 32 oil up to the top of the gauge. · Replace hydraulic tank fill cap.
WARNING: Hot Oil Hazard
NEVER remove the hydraulic oil fill cap when the engine is running or hot. Hot
oil can escape causing severe burns. Allow the Hydraulic Power Pack to cool
completely before removing hydraulic oil fill cap.
NOTICE: Attached Implement Hydraulic Oil: Refer to the attached implement
owner’s manual for its recommended oil. If you are using an implement that
requires different oil, it may be incompatible with the above recommended oil,
contact Brave.
4. Inspect hydraulic system (with engine off)
· Visually inspect all Hydraulic Power Pack hoses, tubing, clamps/fittings,
pump, and cylinder for cracks, fraying, kinks, or other damage.
· Check all components for oily residue, which may indicate a leak. · Do NOT
operate the Hydraulic Power Pack if there is any indication of damage or oily
residue.
10
Operation (Continued)
5. Check implement hydraulic system
Check hydraulic system and lines of the implement to be attached to the
Hydraulic Power Pack. Small leaks in hydraulic lines can be an indication of
catastrophic failure in the near future. The life of hydraulic hoses may be
from a few months to a few years, depending on use and storage patterns.
WARNING: Pressurized Fluid Hazard
High fluid pressures and temperatures are developed in Hydraulic Power Packs.
NEVER check for leaks with your hand. Leaks can be located by holding a piece
of cardboard or wood (at least two feet long) with your hand at one end and
passing the other end over the suspected area (wear eye protection). Look for
discoloration on the cardboard or wood.
STOP the engine, disconnect the spark plug, and move all control valve handles
back and forth to relieve pressure before changing or adjusting hydraulic
system components such as hoses, tubing, fittings, or other components.
NEVER adjust the pressure setting of the pump or valve Hydraulic fluid
escaping through a pin-sized opening can burn or puncture skin, resulting in
wounds that could cause blood poisoning, infection, disability, gangrene,
amputation, or death.
If injured by escaping fluid, no matter how small the wound is, see a doctor
at once. A typical injection injury may be a small puncture wound that does
not look serious. However, severe infection or reaction can result if proper
medical treatment is not administered immediately by a doctor who is familiar
with injection injuries.
6. Fill engine gasoline tank (the upper tank)
· Check gasoline tank level. · Fill tank with fresh unleaded gasoline from a
UL approved portable container.
WARNING: Gasoline Vapor Hazard While Fueling
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. Heat, sparks, and flames can
ignite gasoline vapors which spread over a large area during fueling. A flash
fire ignition and/or explosion will likely result in serious injury or death.
The following conditions could result in gasoline ignition/explosion:
Refueling and refueling spills Gas vapor collection inside enclosures Static
electric sparks Sparks from electric wiring, batteries, or running engines
Sources of heat (such as a hot engine exhaust) Open flames, including pilot
lights
7. Inspect fuel system for leaks (with engine off)
Inspect the entire fuel system. Look for signs of: leaks or deterioration;
chafed or spongy fuel hose; loose connections; loose or missing fuel hose
clamps; damaged gasoline tank; or a defective gasoline shut-off valve.
WARNING: Fuel Leak Hazard
A leaking fuel line or spilled fuel no matter how small can be the source of a
fire or explosion when starting or operating the engine.
If Hydraulic Power Pack is in an enclosed area and you smell gas, DO NOT start
engine! DO NOT light a match. DO NOT flip on an electrical switch.
Exit area immediately leaving doors open and call fire department.
11
Starting and Warm-up Before Use
1. If the hydraulic power unit is equipped with a directional control valve,
place the Hydraulic valve handle in the neutral position. If unit not equipped
with a directional control valve, skip directly to step 6.

WARNING: Crush Hazard
The Hydraulic Power Pack valve does not have a positive locking device to hold
the cylinder in position. Always use a mechanical lock to prevent the cylinder
from creeping/drifting.
WARNING
Applications with large cylinders can excessively deplete the Hydraulic Power
Pack’s hydraulic tank. DO NOT use this unit in applications where more than
75% of the hydraulic fluid is purged from the hydraulic tank or with a
cylinder storing a larger oil reserve than the Hydraulic Power Pack. DO NOT
attempt to add more hydraulic fluid during operation to extend the hydraulic
capacity. Failure to follow these warnings could result in damage to
property/equipment, personal injury, and death in serious cases.
15
Using Hydraulic Cylinder Implement (Continued)
2. Start Engine:

cylinders should have a valve present in the system).
· Confirm supply and return lines are properly plumbed to the driven equipment
safely and securely. · Start engine per manufacturer’s instructions. · Place
the engine throttle control lever in the fast position.
3. Normal Operation:
· To raise the cylinder, push the handle in the forward direction until the
desired height is reached, then release the handle (it will automatically
return to the center position). Important: block or lock the implement at the
desired height. If the implement is not locked into position, the Hydraulic
Power Pack will allow the cylinder to drift.
· To lower the cylinder, push the handle in the reverse direction until the
desired height is reached, then release the handle (it will automatically
return to the center position).
4. To Stop or Remove Attached Implement with Hydraulic Cylinder(s):
· To remove the unit, first place the implement cylinder in the fully
retracted position (so the rod is inside the cylinder barrel).
· Then, verify the valve handle is in the center (neutral) position. · Turn
the engine off using on/off switch located on engine. · Move the valve handle
to the forward position for four (4) to five (5) seconds, then to the reverse
position for four (4) to five (5) seconds to release system pressure. · If
hoses are connected with quick disconnects, disconnect the hoses.
16
Refueling
WARNING: Fire Hazard
Allow the engine to cool for at least five (5) minutes before refueling,
moving to storage or transporting. A hot engine can be a fire hazard.
Refueling at Work Sites:
· Before removing gas cap, turn engine off and allow to cool for at least FIVE

WARNING: Static Electric Spark Hazard
A static electric spark can explosively ignite gasoline vapor, resulting in a
flash fire that could cause serious injury or death. See “Special Safety
Information on Static Electricity” at end of this manual.
· Use only a UL listed portable gasoline containers · Never fill the gasoline
tank directly from the fuel pump. The tank is not grounded and high velocity
flow from the pump can cause static electricity build-up. · Use a portable
container made of metal or conductive plastic. This is preferred because it
dissipates
static charge to ground more readily. · ALWAYS place container on the ground
to be filled. Never fill a portable gasoline container while it
is sitting inside a vehicle, trailer, trunk, or pick-up truck bed. · Keep
nozzle in contact with container while filling. Do not use a nozzle lock-open
device.

Storing
Allow engine to cool before inspecting and storing 1. Inspect for worn or
damaged parts 2. Choose a covered storage location 3. Start engine every 4
weeks; -OR4. Prepare engine for long-term (seasonal) storage if needed.
1. Inspect for worn or damaged parts:
Inspect the Hydraulic Power Pack for worn or damaged parts and tighten any
nuts or screws that may have become loose. Check for any fuel or hydraulic
system leaks.
2. Choose a covered storage location:
Store the Hydraulic Power Pack in a location that is: · Clean and dry. · Away
from sources of heat, open flames, sparks, and pilot lights, even if the gas
tank is empty. (Residual gasoline fumes can still ignite) · Away from extreme
high or low temperatures. · Cover for extra protection.
WARNING: Stored Gasoline Vapor Fire Hazard
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. Drain the fuel into an approved
container OUTDOORS and far away from open flame. NEVER store an engine with
fuel in the tank indoors or in poorly ventilated spaces where fuel vapor can
come in contact with: Static electric sparks; Sparks from electric wiring,
batteries, or running engines; Sources of heat (such as hot engine or
exhaust); Open flames, including pilot lights.
3. Start engine every 4 weeks:
For future easy starting and to minimize maintenance requirements, the
Hydraulic Power Pack should be started at least every four weeks and run for
10 to 15 minutes. Monthly exercising of the engine will dry out any moisture
that has accumulated, lubricate cylinders, and clean out old gas in the
carburetor. Moisture, old gas, and dry mechanical parts cause deterioration in
stored engines.
CAUTION: HBHS users without installed directional control valve
If the unit is not equipped with a directional control valve, please ensure
the power unit is properly plumbed to the powered equipment prior to
attempting to start the engine. Unit cannot be run without implement attached.

Special Safety Information on Static Electricity
Accidents Involving Static Electricity
Static electricity and filling gasoline containers. Static electricity can
initiate from ungrounded gasoline tanks or containers, from flowing gasoline,
and from persons carrying a static electric charge.
Static electricity on numerous occasions has explosively ignited gasoline
vapors that were present during fueling processes, resulting in serious burns
to nearby persons. To avoid static electricity while fueling, certain steps
must be followed before and during the fueling process in order to minimize
and safely dissipate static charge build-up.
Filling Portable Containers at Service Stations:
Use a portable container to fill Hydraulic Power Pack tank. Never fill the
Hydraulic Power Pack’s gasoline tank directly from the service station’s fuel
dispenser pump the Hydraulic Power Pack’s tank is not grounded and the high
velocity flow of gasoline from a fuel pump can cause static electric build-up.
Use a UL-approved portable container to transfer gasoline to the Hydraulic
Power Pack’s tank.
Use a portable container made of metal or conductive plastic. It will
dissipate charge to ground more readily.
Fill container on the ground. Never fill the portable gasoline container while
it is sitting inside a vehicle, trailer, trunk, or pick-up truck bed. ALWAYS
place container on the ground to be filled.
Touch a grounded metal object before starting. Always dissipate static charge
from your body before beginning the fueling process by touching a grounded
metal object that is a safe distance away from fuel sources.
Keep nozzle in contact with container. Keep fuel dispenser nozzle in contact
with the portable container at all times while filling at a service station.
Do not use the nozzle lock-open device on the dispenser hose.
About static electricity and fueling
Many common objects can accumulate and retain a static electric charge.
Objects made of non-conductive materials (e.g., plastics) easily accumulate
and retain static electric charge, as can objects made of conductive material
(e.g., metal, water) if they are not electrically grounded. The static
electric charge on an object, such as a human body or plastic fuel
tank/container, can reach as high as several thousand volts!
A static electric spark can be generated if the static electric charge stored
on an object “jumps” to another, less charged object. Such a spark can ignite
invisible gasoline vapors that are present during fueling situations.
Typical sources of static electric hazards during fueling
The following objects can accumulate a static electric charge and cause an
ignition spark in typical fueling situations:
Ungrounded tanks/containers. Any ungrounded fuel tank or container can
accumulate a static electric charge as a result of contact with other objects
or friction during transportation. This static electricity can discharge as a
spark to the grounded gasoline dispenser nozzle, as the nozzle is first
brought close to the tank/container at the beginning of the fueling process.
Flowing gasoline. Most people are not aware that gasoline accumulates static
electric charge while flowing through a hose or pipe. This charge then
transfers to and accumulates in the gasoline tank or container that is being
filled. The total amount of charge accumulation depends on the amount of
gasoline pumped into the container, the speed with which it is pumped, and
whether or not the tank/container is grounded. If sufficient static electric
charge accumulates in the fuel tank or container during the fueling process,
the tank/container may discharge a spark to the grounded gasoline dispenser
nozzle.
Persons. A person dispensing the gasoline can carry a static electric charge
on their body, typically resulting from contact with their car seat or
electronics. The static electricity can discharge as a spark between that
person’s hand and either the grounded dispenser nozzle or the fuel tank
opening.
