TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Loose or improperly threaded ttings can be potentially dangerous if pressurized;
however, severe over tightening can cause premature thread failure. Fittings need
to be tightened secure & leak free. Never hold or stand directly in line with any
hydraulic connections while pressurizing. Never grab, touch or in any way come in
contact with a hydraulic pressure leak. Escaping oil can penetrate the skin and a
serious injury can result.
CAUTION: Do not subject the hose to potential hazards such as sharp surfaces, extreme heat or
heavy impact. Do not allow the hose to kink or twist. Inspect each hose for wear before it is used.
ELECTRICAL
Check for proper electrical supply before connecting. Be sure the electrical connection is grounded.
Check that your power supply agrees with the motor nameplate and/or T
orcUP model decal.
NOTE: MOTOR MAY SPARK. DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE OR IN THE
PRESENCE OF CONDUCTIVE LIQUIDS.
1. Do not use a power or extension cord that is damaged or has exposed wires.
2. All single phase motors come equipped with a three prong grounding type plug to t the proper
grounded type electrical outlet. Do not use a two prong ungrounded extension cord as the
pump’s motor must be grounded.
CONNECTING HYDRAULIC TOOLS
Use only tools, hoses and accessories rated at 10,000 PSI (700kg/cm
2
). When making connections
with quick disconnect couplings, make sure the couplings are fully engaged. Threaded connections
such as ttings, gauges, etc. must be securely tightened and leak free. Use 1.5 wraps of Teon tape (or
suitable thread sealant) on all threads, leaving the rst complete thread free of tape to ensure no foreign
matter enters the hydraulic circuit.
STARTING THE PUMP FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Check for any leaks, repair as needed.
2. When rst plugged in the solenoid makes 4 “clicks” relieving any pressure still in the system.
When the button to turn off the pump is pressed it goes through the same sequence for the
same reason. It is then safe to remove tool and hoses.
3. Shift pendant to the advance position to advance tool and release to retract tool. Look for
movement in tool, check for any leaks, repair as needed.
CAUTION: Never operate the pump without tool movement for more than 1 minute. Leaving the valve
in the advance or retract position without the tool’s piston rod moving will overheat the oil.
CAUTION: Never disconnect or connect any hydraulic hoses or ttings without rst unloading the tool,
then unplug the electrical cord of the pump. Open manual relief valve to assure that the system has
been depressurized.
