100 Ton Ram Instruction Manual
Cut the hose end square and if the assembly
requires static grounding, follow the hose
manufacturer’s procedure for proper static
grounding. Lubricate the hose I.D. and the O.D. of
the stem with Dixon Coupling Lubricant or
equivalent. Insert the Cam and Groove fitting with
ferrule onto the hose until the ferrule is even with the
mark closest to the hose end. This is the second
mark made on the hose.
Bring the hose with the stem and ferrule through the
die bed. Insert the coupling into or onto the pusher
(depending upon coupling style). Make sure that
there is sufficient room between the die holders and
the end of the ferrule to comfortably insert the die
halves into the die holders.
Lubricate the outside of the ferrule with Crisco®
(recommended) or high viscosity oil or heavy duty
grease.
Lubricate the I.D. of both die halves with Crisco®
(recommended) or high viscosity oil or heavy duty
grease.
