DANGER: Do not handle pressurized hoses. Escaping
oil under pressure can penetrate the skin, causing
serious injury. If oil is injected under the skin, see a
doctor immediately.
WARNING: Only use hydraulic cylinders in a coupled
system. Never use a cylinder with unconnected couplers. If
the cylinder becomes extremely overloaded, components
can fail catastrophically causing severe personal injury.
WARNING: BE SURE SETUP IS STABLE BEFORE
LIFTING LOAD. Cylinders should be placed on a fl at
surface that can support the load. Where applicable, use
a cylinder base for added stability. Do not weld or otherwise
modify the cylinder to attach a base or other support.
Avoid situations where loads are not directly centered
on the cylinder plunger. Off -center loads produce
considerable strain on cylinders and plungers. In
addition, the load may slip or fall, causing potentially dangerous
results.
Distribute the load evenly across the entire saddle surface.
Always use a saddle to protect the plunger.
IMPORTANT: Hydraulic equipment must only be serviced
by a qualifi ed hydraulic technician. For repair service,
contact the Authorized ENERPAC Service Center in your
area. To protect your warranty, use only ENERPAC oil.
WARNING: Immediately replace worn or damaged parts
by genuine ENERPAC parts. Standard grade parts will
break causing personal injury and property damage.
ENERPAC parts are designed to fi t properly and withstand high
loads.

4.0 INSTALLATION
WARNING: DO NOT USE the spreader on pipe fl anges
or in applications where one or both objects can move
in a circular or orbital motion. General purpose
spreader arms open in a radial motion and the spreader could
become a projectile if circular or orbital motion also occurs.
WR-5 and WR-15
Attach hose to 3/8" NPT port. Connect mating coupler halves
together hand tight only. Using tools will damage the coupler.
CAUTION: Position hoses to avoid sharp bends,
kinks, and sharp impacts from objects because they
may cause wear or damage to the hose, leading to
premature failure.
A-92
Attach an included A-13 or A-102F smooth saddle to the cylinder
plunger before attaching the spreader to the cylinder collar
threads. Hand tighten the saddle and the spreader.
IMPORTANT: An Enerpac RC-102 cylinder is recommended for
use with the spreader. However, an RC Series cylinder of longer
stroke (RC-104 through RC-1014) can be used if an RC-102
cylinder is not available. The RC-101 cylinder should not be used
because its stroke length is insuffi
cient for use with the spreader.
