INSTALL HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS 
STANLEY recommends you use hose lengths of 25 ft/8 m 
with 1/2 inch/12.7 mm inside diameter. Hoses must have a 
working pressure rating of at least 2500 psi/175 bar. Hose 
ends must have male threads compatible with H.T.M.A. 
quick disconnect ttings (NPT).
H.T.M.A. approved quick disconnect couplings are installed 
to hydraulic hoses so that the direction of oil ow is always 
from the male to the female coupling.  Additional ttings, 
such as reducers or adapter ttings, are not required.
If adapter ttings are used, they must be approved steel 
hydraulic ttings meeting a minimum operating pressure 
rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.  Do not use galvanized pipe 
ttings or black pipe ttings.
Use thread tape or pipe joint compound when installing 
quick disconnect couplings to hose or tool ttings. Follow 
the instructions furnished with the selected thread sealant. 
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE FITTINGS.
