SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Due to the weight of the press, lifting equipment and the help of an

assistant will be required during installation. Fix the press to the floor using

suitable anchor bolts.

2. Before starting work, check for signs of cracked welds, loose or missing

bolts, damaged screen, or any other damage. Do not use if any of these

conditions exist. Have repairs made only by authorised service centre.

3. Before work, always ensure that hydraulic hoses and couplings are

completely sound.

4. Never tamper with the press components or modify them. The safety valve

is set and sealed at the factory; do not attempt to adjust the setting.

5. Use only the recommended hydraulic oil.

6. The components of this press are designed to withstand the rated load. Do

not substitute any other components or exceed the rated load of the press.

7. Before applying pressure, ensure the workpiece is firmly secure and stable.

8. Always clean up spills of hydraulic oil immediately as this can be

dangerous in a workshop environment.

9. Do not allow any person who is unfamiliar with hydraulic presses, to use the

press unless they are under direct supervision.

10. Keep children and unauthorised personnel away from the work area.

11. Always position the safety screen directly front of the workpiece.

12. Always apply the load under the centre of the ram. Offset loads can

damage the ram and may cause the work piece to be ejected.

13. Always ensure the work piece is properly supported by the press bed.

14. When using accessories such as pressing plates, be certain they are

centered below the ram and are in full contact with the bed.

15. Parts being pressed may shatter or be ejected from the press. Always use

adequate guards and wear eye protection and protective clothing when

using this press.

16. Keep hands and fingers away from parts that may pinch or shift.

17. Never use extension tubes to increase the length of the pump handle.

Excessive effort can cause damage and/or accidents.

18. Wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles and heavy duty work gloves.

19. Failure to heed these warnings may result in damage to the equipment, or

serious personal injury.

ASSEMBLY

TOOLS REQUIRED

• Wrench/Socket Set

•PTFEtape

•HexKeys

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT: The press must be firmly secured to a firm and level floor using

expansion bolts (not supplied). Holes are provided in the feet for this

purpose.

IMPORTANT: Do not locate your press where it will be open to the elements,

as severe weather conditions will damage the hydraulic parts.

1. With the help of an assistant,

attach the base supports to the

frame using the nuts, bolts and

washers.

2. Add the stay bars to each side

and bolt into place.

3. Using suitable lifting equipment if

required, lift the frame assembly

upright and manoeuvre it to its

intended location in the

workshop.

4. Bolt the hydraulic pump into

position on the side of the frame

using the fixing bolts and washers.

WARNING: DUE TO THE WEIGHT OF THE PRESS, LIFTING EQUIPMENT OR THE

HELP OF AN ASSISTANT WILL BE REQUIRED DURING INSTALLATION.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

5. Unfasten the protective hose cap

(not shown here) and screw the

hose onto the connector block.

• We recommend sealing the

thread with PTFE tape. Take

care not to let any oil escape

while connecting the hose.

6. Fit the pressure gauge to the

union nut on the inside of the

frame. Check the gauge face is

upright before tightening the union nut.

7. The air bleed tube is connected

to the ram at one end. Connect

the free end to the pump, using

an open wrench and sealing the

thread with PTFE tape (not

supplied).

• The winch is supplied

disconnected from the frame

but connected to the lifting

cable ready for use. The

handle will be pointing

towards the middle of the packing crate during transit.

8. Fit the winch as shown with the

handle facing away from the

press before securing it to the

frame with the mounting bracket,

nuts, bolts and washers.

9. Bolt the protective screen

brackets to the pressing bedplate.

10. Bolt the connecting bars to the

operating arm of the pump. Bolt

them together as a pair fitting the

short spacers in both positions as

shown.

11. Bolt the foot pedal to the frame

using the long bolt, long spacer,

nut and washers.

12. Connect the lower end of the

connecting bars to the foot

pedal.

13. Fit the protective screen assembly

to the brackets and ensure it can

be set in one of the available

positions using the latches on

each side.

14. Use the screws supplied to fit the

protective cover over the pump

assembly.

PREPARATION FOR USE

PURGING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

1. Open the release valve by turning

anti-clockwise.

2. Pump the handle or foot pedal

several full strokes to eliminate any

air bubbles from the system.

3. Close the release valve, turning

clockwise.

4. Air can subsequently be bled from

the system at any time using the

bleed valve on the side of the

pump.

5. Turn anti-clockwise to release and

listen for air escaping before re-

tightening.

6. Top up the hydraulic oil to the

lower level of the filler plug with

CLARKE hydraulic oil, Part No.

3050830.

POSITIONING THE PRESSING BED

1. Use the winch to raise the pressing

bed into a suitable position.

• The arrows on the winch

indicate the direction of

movement.

• The pressing bed should be as

close as possible to the ram

when the workpiece is

mounted on it.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

2. When satisfied that the bed is at

the correct height insert the

locking pins into their positions

and secure with the spring clips.

POSITIONING THE RAM

1. Slide the carriage along the cross-

beam.

2. Lock it in position with the four

sprung locking bolts.

• Always position the ram

directly above the workpiece.

POSITIONING THE PRESSING BED BLOCKS

The bed blocks can be placed on

the bed with either the flat face or

the V-supports facing upwards.

They are prevented from slipping out

of position by the retaining pins which

drop down within the confines of the

bed side members.

Check all parts are secure and

correctly aligned before using the

press.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

OPERATION

1. Place the workpiece on the bed. It must be completely stable and

supported by packing or shims where required. Pressing plates (bed blocks)

are supplied, which locate on the bed. Place the workpiece on these to

give it stability.

NOTE: Any packing pieces or shims used MUST be capable of

withstanding the pressure that will be brought to bear, and MUST

be of sufficient size with sufficient surface area, so as to avoid the

possibility of slipping or springing out. Mating surfaces MUST be

horizontal so that the force being exerted will NOT be at an angle.

2. Close the release valve by turning

clockwise until tightly closed.

3. Select either SLOW SPEED or FAST

SPEED using the knob on the side

of the pump cover.

• Fast speed allows faster

movement but greater effort

will be required.

4. Pump the handle or foot pedal to

bring the ram very lightly into

contact with the workpiece.

5. Manoeuvre the workpiece or slide the ram to one side so that the desired

point of contact is directly beneath the centre of the ram.

6. When satisfied that the workpiece

is correctly aligned and is

completely stable in that position,

slide the protective screen into

position before starting any

pressing.

• The latches will support the

screen in a selection of

positions.

CAUTION: DO NOT POINT LOAD SUCH ACCESSORIES AS THEY ARE NOT

DESIGNED TO TAKE THE FULL FORCE OF THE RAM IN ONE SPOT. ENSURE

THEY ARE ADEQUATELY SUPPORTED.
