Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the pump is placed on a stable, level surface before operation. Connect your hydraulic cylinder or ram to the 3/8" outlet using appropriate high-pressure hydraulic hoses (sold separately). Verify that the hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir is adequate; refill if necessary with the recommended hydraulic oil type. Before first use, it's advisable to cycle the pump a few times to purge any air from the system.
Compatibility: The pump is designed to work with most standard hydraulic cylinders and rams. The 3/8" outlet offers broad compatibility. Ensure any hoses used are rated for the 10,000psi output of this pump.
Care: After use, clean the exterior of the pump with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Store the pump in a clean, dry environment. Periodically check the hydraulic fluid level and condition, topping up or replacing as per the manufacturer's recommendations. Inspect hoses and fittings for wear or damage before each use.
