The SwitZer Air Hydraulic Foot Pump is an industrial-grade tool designed for professional mechanics and workshop technicians who need reliable, high-pressure force for hydraulic equipment. It excels at powering cylinders, presses, and pipe benders with its 10,000 PSI capacity, though users should note it requires a consistent compressed air supply to function effectively.

Use a standard, high-grade anti-wear hydraulic oil as recommended for high-pressure hydraulic equipment.
The pump is designed for use with standard high-pressure hydraulic hoses, but you should verify if your specific kit includes the hose or if it needs to be purchased separately.
Yes, as long as the press uses compatible hydraulic fittings and can handle 10,000 PSI, it should be compatible.
Adjust the air input pressure using the regulator on your air compressor to vary the resulting hydraulic force.
While it is compact enough for shop use, its industrial construction makes it fairly heavy, so it is best kept on a stable workbench or shop floor.
Check hydraulic fluid levels and ensure all fittings are tightened correctly. Inspect for air leaks in the pneumatic line.
Verify the input air pressure is within the 40-150 PSI range and that the air compressor is providing sufficient flow.
Bleed the air from the hydraulic system to remove trapped air bubbles.
To set up the pump, connect your regulated air supply to the intake port using a standard air hose. Ensure your hydraulic hose is securely attached to the pump's outlet using compatible high-pressure fittings. Before first use, bleed any air from the hydraulic lines to prevent spongy operation.
