• Inspect the Hydraulic Workshop Press before each use. Do not use if bent, broken, cracked, leaking or otherwise damaged. Ensure all bolts and nuts are firmly tightened.
• Do not exceed the products rated maximum load capacity. Never apply excessive force to a work piece.
• Steel and other materials can shatter, always wear approved impact goggles, heavy duty work gloves and appropriate clothing.
• If you detect anything that may indicate imminent structural failure, stop using the Hydraulic Workshop Press immediately and inspect thoroughly.
• Only use this Hydraulic Workshop Press on a surface that is stable, level, dry and non-slippery, and capable of sustaining the load. Keep the surface clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials and ensure that there is adequate lighting.
• Do not use this Hydraulic Workshop Press to compress springs or any other item that could disengage and cause a potential hazard.
• Keep hands and feet away from bed area at all times.
• Do not modify any component of this equipment.
• Only use this device for the purpose for which it has been designed.
• When servicing, use only TradeQuip identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty.
• Use the right product for the job. There are certain applications for which the Hydraulic Workshop Press was designed. Do not modify the Hydraulic Workshop Press and do not use the Hydraulic Workshop Press for a purpose for which it was not intended.
• Do not use for spring compressing
• Do not force the product. Products are safer and do a better job when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for the job.
• Be aware of dynamic loading. A sudden loading movement may briefly create an excess load causing product Failure.

INTENDED USE
For regular professional straightening, bending & pressing. Removing and installing gears, bearings and bushings.

ASSEMBLY, OPERATION, PREVENTITIVE MAINTENANCE

FEATURES
This TradeQuip “Made for the Trade” Hydraulic Workshop Press is great for straightening, stamping, bending and pressing any component that is hard to handle. The polished inner cylinder walls extend the life of the hydraulic seals to minimize abrasion and wear, while the cylinder ram and pistons are also polished and chromed, guided by high performance seals, wear rings and dust seals.
It is ideal for a variety of workshop applications and in particular suited to agricultural or industrial use. Jobs such as straightening, bending, folding, punching, removing bolts and bearings etc, are some of the tasks that can be easily accomplished.

ASSEMBLY
Unpacking: after removing the packing material, make sure the product is in perfect condition and that there are no visible damaged parts. The packaging materials (Polyethylene bags, polystyrene etc.), must be disposed of in an appropriate refuse collection container. These materials must not be left within the reach of children as they are potential sources of danger.

• Identify and lay out parts. Bolt the cross legs to the bottom of the main frames.
• Bolt the upper crossbeam to the head of the main frames. Note. If your model has a top and bottom plate which attach to either side of the frame head, screw the nuts finger tight only at this stage.
• Attach the hydraulic power unit according to model: Should your model have a separate jack plate, check side of main frame to locate assembly holes. If you have a choice of left or right attachment, assemble the plate according to your operational requirement.
• Attach the hydraulic power unit to the jack plate or to the appropriate attachment bars incorporated in the main frame using the bolts provided.
• Insert the press platform support pins through the holes in the main frame. Taking firm hold of the platform, tip it into a diagonal position so that it can be introduced between the mainframe uprights and carefully lower it back to a horizontal position to rest on the support pins.

WARNING! Take care not to allow the press platform to drop onto the pins and ensure your hands and fingers are clear of the press platform when lowering.

BEFORE USE
Prior to each use conduct a visual inspection by checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked and damaged, loose, or missing parts.

Installation

• Securely attach the Hydraulic Workshop Press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for working pieces.
• 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 flex or suddenly “give way” causing danger to operator or the component. Also ensure you have read and understood safety instructions.

OPERATION

• Check that the hydraulic unit is fully closed ready for operating.
• Position the working table at highest operating height possible for the job at hand by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame.
• Position the pair of arbor plates or press tools to be used onto the work table and align beneath the ram. Place workpiece onto the work table or arbors and align beneath the ram as required. Note: Care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table. If necessary hold the configuration in position with clamps. Only use the press plates in pairs and centred.
• Operate the pump slowly until the ram is close to or just touching the workpiece. Before applying real pressure to the workpiece recheck the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they cannot flex to breaking point. DO NOT exceed the stroke indicated on the label and do not apply off centre loads.
• When work is complete release the pressure back to fully closed position using the release valve and the piston/ram head will retract automatically.

Note: Always keep the piston fully retracted after use to avoid corrosion

STORAGE
This Hydraulic Workshop Press should always be stored in a dry location with the ram and piston fully retracted on a level surface.

MAINTENANCE

• Check all fittings are tight before each use.
• Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
• Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions.
• Should you need to replace the oil ensure the piston is fully retracted. An excess of oil will render the press inoperative.
• Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil. DO NOT use brake fluid. Contact your local dealer for details.
• Purge the system to remove any air.

SERVICE & REPAIR
Any Hydraulic Workshop Press found damaged in any way, or found to be worn or operates abnormally should be removed from service until repaired by an authorised service agent. Owners and / or operators should be aware that repair of this product may require specialised equipment and knowledge. Only authorised parts, labels and decals shall be used on this equipment. Annual inspection of the Hydraulic Workshop Press is recommended and can be made by an authorised repair facility to ensure that your equipment is in optimum condition and that the equipment has the correct decals and safety labels specified by the manufacturer.
