Product Information

Full details

The Laser Tools 7432 Bush Tool Spring Suspension is designed for professional mechanics working on HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle) spring suspension systems. It offers a robust solution for the installation and removal of slotted bushes, a critical task in maintaining suspension integrity. A key benefit is its integrated 12-tonne hydraulic cylinder, which provides ample force for demanding applications. A notable point is that the hydraulic pump is supplied separately, requiring users to have or acquire one.

FAQs

Do I need a separate hydraulic pump?

Yes, the Laser Tools 7432 Bush Tool is supplied with a 12-tonne hydraulic cylinder but requires a compatible hydraulic pump (such as Laser Part No. 7861 or 7862) to operate.

What types of bushes can this tool remove?

This tool is specifically designed for slotted bushes found in HGV spring suspension systems.

Can I use this tool on light vehicles?

While the tool provides significant force, it is optimized for the heavier-duty requirements of HGV suspension. Using it on lighter vehicles may be unnecessary and could potentially cause damage if not used with extreme care.

How often should I service the hydraulic cylinder?

Regular visual inspection for leaks and damage is recommended after each use. Consult the pump and cylinder manufacturer's guidelines for detailed service intervals and procedures.

Is it safe to use heat on seized bushes with this tool attached?

Extreme caution is advised. High temperatures can damage the tool's components and seals. If heat is necessary, apply it sparingly to the bush only and allow it to cool before attempting removal with the tool. Never apply heat directly to the tool's hydraulic cylinder.

What is the warranty period for this tool?

Please refer to the Laser Tools warranty documentation for specific details on coverage and duration for this product.

Troubleshooting

Hydraulic cylinder not extending

Check the hydraulic fluid level in the pump. Ensure the hydraulic line is securely connected to both the pump and the cylinder. Bleed the hydraulic system according to the pump manufacturer's instructions.

Tool not removing the bush

Verify the tool is correctly positioned and aligned with the bush. Ensure the hydraulic pump is delivering sufficient pressure (12 tonnes). Check if the bush is excessively seized; it may require penetrating oil or heat application (use caution).

Hydraulic leaks from cylinder

Inspect the cylinder seals for damage. If seals are compromised, professional servicing or replacement of the cylinder may be required. Do not operate if significant leaks are present.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the Laser Tools 7432 Bush Tool, ensure the 12-tonne hydraulic cylinder is correctly attached. Connect the hydraulic line from your compatible Laser hydraulic pump (Part No. 7861 or 7862) to the cylinder's port. Position the tool onto the HGV spring suspension assembly, ensuring the slotted bush is correctly seated within the tool's jaws and the hydraulic cylinder is aligned to apply pressure.

Compatibility: This tool is specifically designed for HGV slotted spring suspension bushes. It is recommended for use with Laser Hydraulic Hand Pump (Part No. 7861) and Air Powered Hydraulic Pump (Part No. 7862). Always confirm compatibility with your specific HGV model if unsure.

Care: After each use, clean the tool thoroughly with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or grease. Inspect the hydraulic cylinder and connections for any signs of damage or leaks. Store the tool in a dry environment, preferably in its original case or a tool chest, to prevent corrosion and damage.
