PRESS PIN SET
press pin, the pin must be fastened with a safety
chain or the press pin must be enclosed in a safety
cage to eliminate a projectile hazard.
CORRECT TOOLING. Without using the correct
spring caging tool or jig to hold the spring-loaded
workpiece, the workpiece may shift suddenly,
launching springs that could cause a severe impact
injury. Never use this press to unload spring-loaded
assemblies without also using the correct spring
caging tool or jig.
CORRECTING MISALIGNED LOADS. If a workpiece
becomes misaligned during pressing operations, it
may slip out of the press and cause severe impact
injury. Never attempt to realign a workpiece while
it is under pressure. Relieve hydraulic pressure,
and start pressing operations over if a workpiece
or press pin has moved or become misaligned.
Relieve hydraulic pressure if you suspect the
workpiece is in a bind, or structural failure is
imminent.
SAFE WORKING ZONE. Falling tooling, arbor
plates, or a shifting workpiece can cause a
crushing injury to your leg or foot. Keep out from
under the bed, do not work under the press when
it is loaded, and never leave the press loaded and
unattended.
AVOIDING INCORRECT PRESS OPERATIONS.
Some workpieces cannot withstand the force
of pressing and can explode, causing an impact
injury. Other workpieces have hidden retaining
rings, shoulders, pins, welds, or are integral and
cannot be pressed apart. Before using this press,
make sure that you understand how a component
is built and pressed apart.
AVOIDING SPRING-BACK HAZARDS. Under heavy
pressing operations, when some parts finally
break free of the host workpiece, sudden hydraulic
press unloading can result in spring-back. As a
result, a workpiece, press pin, or arbor plate can
spring up and fall from the bed, causing a crushing
injury to your foot or leg. Before press operations
begin, anticipate what the workpiece may do if
this sudden unloading occurs, and secure the
workpiece so it will not fall.
1. Make sure the press will accept the Ram Adapter
and fasten securely with a bolt. The shop press
ram must have a 25 mm female hole with set
screw.
2. Install Ram Adapter and tighten set screw. Select
desired Pin and insert into the Ram Adapter,
making sure it is fully bottomed out in the Adapter
and secured by the Retaining Ball on the Pin.
3. Following directions provided by the press
manufacturer, apply pressure to the workpiece as
desired.
DO NOT EXCEED PRESSURE RATING MARKED ON
THE PIN HOLDER BRACKET
EXCEEDING RATED PRESS PIN CAPACITY
CAN DAMAGE THE PRESS PIN, SHATTER A
WORKPIECE, OR LAUNCH A PRESS PIN CAUSING
A SEVERE IMPACT INJURY
