Assembly
Refer to the Assembly Drawing on page 6
1. Using four C Clamps, secure the Frame Assembly (#1) to workbench.
2. Set the 10 Ton Ram (#2) into the hole on top of the
Frame Assembly (#1). Only the threaded section will fit. Twist it so that the male
hose connection faces the direction you want to bring the hose from. Secure it
tightly with the Nut (#3).
3. The Short Tube (#4) and the Long Tube (#7) are interchangeable. You have
to determine the distance from the Ram (#6) to your workpiece before selecting a
tube. Note: Select the tube which leaves you with the shortest distance from the
Ram (#6) to the workpiece. Thread the selected tube to the Nut (#3). Tighten
securely.
4. Insert the Chord Axis (#5) into the Short Tube (#4) or the Long Tube (#7).
Screw on securely.
5. Screw the Ram (#6) onto the other side of the Chord Axis (#5).
6. Connect the Pump (#9) hose to the male hose attachment on the
10 Ton Ram (#2).
Operation
Note: Before use, bleed the Pump (#9). See Maintenance, page 5.
Warning: Use four C clamps to secure the Press to the workbench for stablity
and safety.
Warning: After pressing, during the release process (see #5 below) the Ram (#6)
could rise quickly. Stay clear.
Warning: When lowering the Ram (#6) make sure your clothing and hair do not
get caught in the process.
Warning: When pressing two items together, the items must be lined up verti-
cally. If not, one item may forcefully eject itself sideways from the unit.
1. Clamp down the Press frame to the workbench.
2. Determine which tube to use according to the height of your workpiece, and
install it. (See Assembly instructions above). Line up the Base Spacer (#8) so
that it will hold the workpiece directly under the Ram (#6) when you lower it.
3. Using the handle on the Pump (#9), pump down the Ram (#6) so it contacts
the workpiece. Continue pumping until desired pressing occurs.
4. Make the needed modifications or adjustments to the workpiece.
5. When finished, Carefully and slowly turn the release valve on the
Pump (#9) causing the Ram (#6) to raise and release the pressure on the
workpiece.
Warning: If the surface under the Base Spacer or lower Frame Assembly
rests on any sort of obstruction that can create an uneven press (i.e., bolt,
debris, etc...), then during a press an uneven base can be created, leading
to unusual stress on the Base Spacer and possibly a break. The result is
the possibility of personal injury from the broken Base Spacer.
