4.1
INSTALLATION.
4.1.1 Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface taking into account clearance for workpieces.
DANGER! The press is heavy. If it requires moving after assembly or for relocation, use suitable slings around the top crossbeam,
or lift direct with a forklift with the forks located under the top crossbeam.
4.1.2
Purge hydraulic system.
Before operating the press, the hydraulic system may require purging in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit.
Open the release valve (fig.2) by turning anti-clockwise and pump the handle several times.
Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this procedure may resolve the problem.
DANGER! The press is purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic unit can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece is secured on the table to ensure loads that flex will not suddenly “give” causing danger to operator or damage to
component. Ensure you have read and understood chapter 1 safety instructions.
