WHAT TOOLS CAN BE
POWERED
The PP 418 power pack is equipped with an adjustable
fl ow hydraulic pump which produces hydraulic power more
effi ciently than a more commonly used fi xed displacement
gear pump.
The PP 418 power pack is suited to power any hydraulic
tool with the following specifi cations;
Hydraulic valve:
Flow Requirement:
Maximum Pressure:
CAUTION
If a tool requires 20 lpm/5 gpm of fl ow - it SHALL NOT
be operated with a higher setting – such as 8 or 10
gal/min. This can cause severe damage to the tool or
even personal injury.
Always consult the manufacturer of a tool before
hooking it up to the power pack.
Examples of Husqvarna hydraulic tools that can be used
with the PP 418 without any modifi cations:
• Hand Saw
• Ring Saws
• Core Drill
• Wall Saw
Other popular tools are:
• Hydraulic Chain Saw
• Hydraulic Water Pump
• Hydraulic Breaker
If you are unsure of the compatibility of any tool - please
consult the tool manufacturer or Husqvarna Construction
Products.

HYDRAULIC HOSES AND
COUPLERS
The PP 418 includes a 7.5 m (25 ft) long hose set in a 1/2"
(12.7 mm) inside diameter. You can attach ONE additional
1/2" hose of up to 10 m (33 ft) (total of 18-20 meters / 60-
65 ft).
If you require a longer hose for your application we recom-
mend the following:
Maximum hose extension - up to 40 m (130 feet) total
distance:
• Use the 7.5 m (25 feet) of hose included with the power
pack.
• Make two 16 m (53 ft) extension hoses in a minimum of
5/8" (16 mm) hose diameter.
One 32 m (100 ft) length can also be used - however it is
more bulky to handle.
We strongly recommend using HTMA "Flat Face" compa-
tible quick couplers.
CAUTION
The hydraulic hoses and fi ttings shall have a mi-
nimum pressure rating of 140 bar (2000 psi) with a
safety factor of 4 to 1.
NOTICE
The direction of fl ow through the system is always;
male fi tting into the female fi tting. This means that
any extension hoses should be made up the same
way. If you have a male fi tting in one end of a hose
you should always have a female fi tting in the oppo-
site end. Never use two fi ttings of the same gender
on the same hose.
CAUTION
The hydraulic oil and therefore the hoses and hy-
draulic couplers can get scalding hot during normal
operation.
A hydraulic coupler at a temperature of 50°C (120°F) will be
perceived as HOT to the touch. It is normal that the power
pack oil might become as hot as 60°C (145°F) if operated
on a very hot day with ambient temperatures exceeding
40°C (104°F).
For reference - a car engine typically operates at 90°C
(195°F)
