Series 685 Grip Supply Installation Procedure

Installation

The breather is taped to the manifold behind the front access door during
shipment of the unit. Install it in the 1/2 inch NPT hole in the top of the
reservoir.

Closing the grip without a specimen inserted or with a specimen only
partially inserted may damage grips.

Do not clamp the grips without a specimen installed. See the appropriate grip
product information manual for detailed specimen mounting instructions.

7. Check the grip operation.

A.

Set both grip controls to the release position.

B.

Turn the power switch to the On position.

C.

Change the grip controls between grip and release a few times and
check for leaks at all connections (correct as needed).

D.

With the grips fully released, check the level of the hydraulic fluid in
the reservoir.

If the fluid level has dropped below the “Low” level, add fluid as
necessary.

E.

Turn the power switch to the Off position.
