Hushh-Pumps (PE34J/PE34R)
1. Make sure all hose connections are tight and
the power cord is connected properly.
2. Turn air vent screw counterclockwise 2 or 3 turns.
3. Push motor switch to "On" position.
4. Let pump idle for a few minutes.
5. To advance plunger, press the "advance" button
on the push-button station. For manual valves,
place valve in "advance" position.
6. To retract plunger, press the "retract" button on
the push-button station. For manual valves, place
the valve in "retract" position.
NOTE: For operation and control of 3 and 4-way
valves, see valve instruction sheet.
Removal of Air
The hydraulic system, when connected for the first
time, will have air in the system. The air must be
removed for safety and proper operation. Air can
generally be removed from the system by fully
advancing and retracting the hydraulic cylinder
several times. When the trapped air is removed from
the hydraulic circuit, the cylinders will advance and
retract smoothly. Sluggish cylinder action is usually
the first sign of air in the system.
WARNING: Do not exceed cylinder
capacity or stroke.
Adjusting Relief Valve
PE22J/PE24J
1. Gauge adaptor, gauge, and shut-off valve must
be installed in the system between pump and
cylinder. Remove the air vent.
2. Start motor. Purge air from the system.
3. Press the advance button or place the manual
valve in advance.
4. Insert 7 ⁄ 32 " Allen wrench through hole and into
adjusting screw.
5. Turn adjusting screw to obtain desired pressure
(or load) reading on gauge:
Counterclockwise to reduce gauge reading;
Clockwise to increase gauge reading.
WARNING: Do not exceed the pump
operating pressure.
6. Check valve setting by operating the valve
several times in the advance and retract
positions. Maximum gauge reading should
remain constant.
