Sealey YK20F - Manual (Page 2)

Note: Maintenance and repair must only be carried out by a qualified person. Contact your Sealey dealer for details.
5.1. Periodically lubricate all joints and moving parts.
5.2. Always keep the press clean, dry, and protected from harsh conditions.
5.3. To check hydraulic oil level, remove the oil filler nut (34) from the pump. If it needs filling, use only Sealey hydraulic jack oil, contact
your local Sealey dealer for details. DO NOT use brake fluid. Replace oil filler nut and purge system of air (see 4.1.2.).
5.4. When replacing the hydraulic oil, ensure the piston is fully retracted.
5.5. If press efficiency begins to drop, purge the system to eliminate any air from the hydraulic system (see 4.1.2.).
5.6. When not in use, clean the press and ensure that the ram and piston are fully retracted.
5. MAINTENANCE
4. INSTALLATION & OPERATION
4.1. INSTALLATION.
4.1.1. Securely attach the press to a flat, firm, level surface, taking into account any clearance required for workpieces.
4.1.2. Before operating the press, purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have built up during transit. Open the
release valve by turning it anti-clockwise and pump the handle several times to eliminate any air from the system, then close the
release valve. Note: Should the system malfunction at any time, repeating this process may resolve the problem.
 DANGER! This model is purpose designed to withstand greater loads than the hydraulic units can develop. For safety reasons, always
ensure the workpiece and press tools are secured on the table and will not flex or suddenly give way, causing danger to the operator,
other personnel present or the workpiece. Also ensure that you have read and understood Section 1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
4.2. OPERATION.
4.2.1. Position the working table at the required operating height by inserting the support pins into the appropriate holes in the main frame.
4.2.2. Place the arbor plate (17) on the press bed frame (18), then place workpiece onto the arbor plate and align beneath the ram as
required. Note: care must be taken to ensure an arbor does not fall from the press work table. If necessary hold the configuration in
position with clamps.
4.2.3. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise until it is firmly closed.
4.2.4. Pump the handle slowly until the ram is in close proximty to, or just touching the workpiece. Before applying any pressure to the
workpiece, recheck the alignment with the ram and ensure that the workpiece and press tools are supported in such a way that they
cannot flex.
4.2.5. Pump the handle to apply load to workpiece.
4.2.6. When work is complete, stop pumping the handle. Slowly and carefully free the load from the workpiece by turning the release valve
anti-clockwise in small increments.
4.2.7. Once the ram has fully retracted, remove the workpiece from the bed frame.
Note: Always keep the piston retracted after use to avoid ram corrosion.
