SAFETY
1.1. GENERAL SAFETY
Familiarise yourself with the applications, limitations, and hazards peculiar
to the press.
Maintain the press in good condition (use an authorised service agent).
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Unauthorised
parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Keep the press clean for best and safest performance.
Locate the press in an adequate working area for its function, keep area clean
and tidy and free from unrelated materials and ensure there is adequate
lighting.
Ensure the workpiece is correctly secured before operating the press.
Ensure that all fittings are tight before each use.
Remove ill fitting clothing. Remove ties, watches, rings, loose jewellery and
contain long hair.
Keep hands and body clear of the work table when operating the press.
Maintain correct balance and footing. Ensure the floor is not slippery and
wear non-slip footware.
Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area.
Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface capable of supporting
the weight of press and any workpiece taking into account clearance for
workpieces.
When not in use, release pressure from the hydraulic unit and clean the press.
Stand or store the V blocks in a safe location.
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 for a task it is not designed to perform.
DO NOT make any modifications to the press.
DO NO T adjust or tamper with the safety valve.
DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the press.
DO NOT apply off-centre loads.
DO NOT allow the workpiece or the press plates to fall from the work
table.
DO NOT get the press wet or use 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 to compress a spring or any other item that could disengage
and cause a potential hazard including personal injury.
DO NOT stand directly in front of the loaded press and never leave a
loaded press unattended.
DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the press.
WARNING! Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating the
press. A full range of personal safety equipment is available from your Sealey
stockist.
DO NOT top up hydraulic unit with brake fluid, or any other fluid other
than a good quality hydraulic oil (Sealey Part Number:
HJO500MLS/HJO5LS) as this may cause serious damage to the hydraulic unit and
will invalidate the warranty.
WARNING! Always position the press against a wall. If the press is
situated in the open workshop, it is essential that a guard be placed at the
rear of the unit. This will prevent injury to bystanders in the event of the
workpiece ejecting suddenly.
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 which
cannot be built into this product, but must be applied by the operator.
▲ DANGER! The press is top heavy. If it requires moving after assembly or
for relocation, use suitable slings around the top crossbeam, or lift direct
with a forklift with the forks located under the top crossbeam. DO NOT use a
pallet truck.

5.2. BEFORE FIRST USE
5.2.1. Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to
eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the
release valve and pump the handle several times and close the release valve.
Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating
this process may resolve the problem.
▲DANGER! Models are purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the
hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always ensure the workpiece
and press tools are secured on the table and will not fl ex or suddenly “give
way” causing danger to operator or the component. Also ensure you have read
and understood section 1 Safety Instructions.
OPERATION
6.2.1. Check that release valve on the hydraulic unit is fully closed, ready
for operating.
6.2.2. Position the table at the required operating height by inserting the
pins into the appropriate holes in the frame.
6.2.3. Position the V-block (#4) or press tools to be used onto the table and
align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the table or V-blocks and align
beneath the ram as required.
NOTE: Care must be taken to ensure a V-block does not fall from the press
table. If necessary hold the configuration in position with clamps (not
supplied).
WARNING! DO NOT apply off centre loads.
WARNING! Monitor the pressure gauge during operation to ensure that the
