Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimise the risk of injury we urge that our clients take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation instructions carefully and make sure you have understood its content. Keep these operation instructions safe.
Safety instructions
Before this workshop press can be used, the owner as well as all other users
of this device must have read and understood this operation manual and the
information, warnings, and instructions contained therein. Personnel operating
the press should always have the necessary qualifications, abide by the
instructions of this operation manual, and always stay attentive and cautious.
- Before the workshop press is used, familiarise yourself with the device, its operation manual, its controls, and the process of its application.
- Ensure that all connectors have been connected correctly and securely.
- This device can only be used by children or individuals with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and/or knowledge if they have received instructions concerning the use of the appliance from and are being supervised by a person familiar with the product and responsible for their safety.
- Check the device for loose, missing, bent, damaged, or worn-out parts before every use. Loose parts must be tightened while missing, bent, damaged, or worn-out items must be replaced before the device can be safely used again.
- Children must be always supervised to ensure that they do not play with it.
- Always stay attentive when using the device and keep bystanders away from the work area to avoid distractions.
- Do not use this device beyond its rated capacity.
- Do not use welding equipment near the workshop press.
- Always ensure that your work area is dry, clean, and well-lit. Wet, cluttered, or insufficiently lit work areas increase the risk of accidents.
- When working with this device, always wear appropriate safety equipment consisting of safety gloves, safety glasses as well as non-skid safety shoes.
- Do not wear loose clothing or accessories that may get caught up in moving parts. Tie long hair up or cover it with a snood-type cap to avoid severe injuries.
- Always stay vigilant while using this device and do not use it if you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medicine. Further ensure to take breaks on a regular basis to minimise exhaustion.
- Do not clean, maintain, repair the device, or tamper with the screw connections while the device is under pressure/load.
- Set the press to the lowest position when refilling hydraulic oil. Only use high quality hydraulic oil and under no circumstances brake fluid, alcohol, glycerine, detergent, engine oil, water, contaminated oil, or other inappropriate fluids.
- Do not attempt to open the hydraulic cylinder as it is under constant pressure. Forcefully opening it might lead to severe injuries and property damage.
- This workshop press was designed for pressing, bending, and straightening purposes. It must not be used for compression as compressed objects can shatter, explode, or be ejected from the press and cause severe injuries as well as property damage.
- Always centre work pieces on the bolster plates to prevent it from falling off or being squeezed out once pressure is applied. Make further sure to keep your hands away from the pressure piece.
Maintenance and control
- Perform a visual inspection before every use. Check the device and its hydraulic connections for leaks as well as loose, missing, damaged, or worn-out parts.
- Check the oil level regularly. First set the press to its lowest position before removing the oil cap. The oil level must exactly reach the opening; if this should not be the case, then refill the device by using high-quality hydraulic oil. Once again tightly close the oil cap, ensuring that the oil does not leak. The hydraulic oil should be completely replaced once a year.
- Periodically lubricate all moving parts. Regularly check the hydraulic piston for corrosion and dirt. Clean corroded or dirty spots with an oily cloth.
- If the disposal of the workshop press should become necessary, the oil should be completely drained and disposed of properly before the workshop press can be recycled.
Operation
- Carefully place the work piece on the bolster plates located on the press platform.
- Turn the release valve clockwise until it cannot be moved any more to close it.
- Pump the handle until the ram moves towards the work piece.
- Align the work piece to the pressure head to ensure that the two connect evenly and in a centred way.
- Apply force to the work piece by further pumping the handle. Be careful not to apply too much pressure.
- Make sure the work piece has been stabilised and will not fall off before releasing the valve by turning it counter-clockwise to remove the pressure from the work piece.
- Allow the pressure piece to retract completely before removing the work piece.
