SETTING UP THE PRESS FOR OPERATION

c. 1000 pound model (1-210) at 85 psi.
d. 2000 pound model at (1-220) at 100 psi.
OPERATIONS
1. Depressing both recessed buttons (Item 23) simultaneously will cause the press to close.
2. The releasing of either recessed button will cause the press to open fully.
3. The Down Stroke Stop adjustment (Item 8) is located inside the guard (Item 10). This adjustment
may be used to limit the closing of the press to any point in the stroke. Always tighten the locknut to
keep the adjustment in place. WARNING! AWAYS REPLACE THE GUARD (Item 10). NOT
DOING THIS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
4. The cylinder rod of the press has a non-rotating feature that could be damaged if care is not used
when attaching tooling. Always hold the rod from rotating using a wrench on the flats above the
threads when attaching tooling or tooling adapters.
5. There are openings in each side of the control enclosure for screwdriver adjustment of the press
ram speed. The opening on the right side (looking from the front) controls the up speed and the
other one is for the down speed. Turning the screw clockwise decreases the speed.
