• Insure all cooling water valves, supply water valves, and high pressure
valves are open.
• Check direction of motor rotation (see arrow).
Do not run the motor backwards, as the hydraulic pump
will likely be damaged.
Motor direction of rotation should be checked any time
electrical maintenance/modification is performed on the
motor starter wiring or on the service wiring to the pump.
Check that inlet cutting water is present before starting SL-
IV Pump.
• At initial startup, run the intensifier at low pressure (refer to procedure in
paragraph 3.3.4) with an open valve in the HP piping system for two
minutes. This procedure will eliminate trapped air in the high-pressure
cylinders, which could become extremely hot when compressed. Trapped air
will cause deterioration of HP seals.
