The table top should always be lowered
from its vertical position at a slow,
controllable rate. A freely falling table
top will only shorten the life of your
bending table and bender components.
Open the jack release valve only enough
to provide a slow smooth return of your
table top and bender to their horizontal
position. Also, when changing the table
top position from horizontal to vertical or
vertical to horizontal, always check for and
provide proper clearances for table,
bender and conduit.
Maintenance of Table
1. To lubricate, apply #20 oil to all pivot points as
indicated in Fig. 10 at least once every month.
2. Retorque the four (4) mounting screws, indicated in
Fig. 10, monthly, to 50 ft. lbs. Visually inspect all
fasteners daily and retorque where necessary.
3. Periodically inspect table for worn and/or damaged
parts and replace where necessary.
Maintenance of Jack
Filling reservoir - with table top in horizontal position,
remove the filler plug as shown in Fig. 11. Add Enerpac
Hydraulic Oil until oil level is up to filler hole. Replace
filler plug. DO NOT use brake fluid, alcohol, glycerine,
and similar fluids. These fluids will damage packings and
corrode metallic parts.
Purging air - if the oil supply is low or if the table was on
its side, the pump may have become air bound. To purge
air from the system, proceed as follows:
1. Put table top in horizontal position.
2. Remove filler plug and check oil level (do not replace
filler plug).
3. Open release valve and operate pump several times.
4. Close the release valve, operate pump and check to
see that the table top raises. If the table top does not
raise, repeat steps 3 and 4.
5. If table top does not raise, lower it to its horizontal
position. Re-check the oil level and replace filler plug.
