Pressing (piston operation):
1.
Set worktable to the required height using the winch and steel cable. To do that set the arrestor by the
crank toothed wheel to the middle position, and secure it using two pins.
2.
If a pneumatic motor is used, connect a compressed air hose to the valve with a quick coupler.
3.
Position work piece on the worktable.
4.
Close the release valve near the manual pump lever by twisting it clockwise.
5.
Pump using the lever (of a pneumatic motor is used, press the button on the valve) until the piston is
near the work piece.
6.
Align the axis of the work piece and the piston to ensure symmetric pressure.
7.
With the piston by the work piece, monitor manometer readings to avoid overloading the press.
(Maximum press capacity: 624 bar / 9052 psi - 50TONNES).
8.
Apply pressure to the work piece by further pumping until desired result is achieved.
Retracting the piston:
1.
Stop using the lever (and stop pumping air) and slowly open the release valve by twisting it
anticlockwise. Secure the work piece to prevent it from falling off the table during pressure release.
2.
Only remove the work piece when the piston is completely retracted.
STORAGE
The machine should be stored without load. The piston should be fully retracted into the cylinder. Clean and
store in a dry place. Before subsequent use, follow these instructions.
INSPECTIONS
Before being used, the new or repaired machine must be checked by qualified technical personnel who have
knowledge and experience within the scope of operation and maintenance of this type of machine. The
machine must be checked regularly by means of visual control of the machine's condition, before, during
and after use. The check must be performed by the machine's operators. Any irregularities in the machines
operation as well as any damage must be reported to the appropriate technical personnel. Do not use the
machine if any damage or performance irregularities are found.
Recommended inspection and maintenance schedule
•
INITIAL INSPECTION: before first use
All new or repaired machines have to be inspected by a qualified and competent person, to ensure the
requirements of these instructions are satisfied.
•
DAILY INSPECTIONS:
Check for oil leaks.
Make sure work surface is clean.
Make sure all bolts are tight and that the connectors are coupled correctly (mechanical, hydraulic,
pneumatic)
26
•
REGULAR INSPECTIONS (recommended once a month):
Check for work surface for damage, if damaged then replace.
Grease connections and articulated parts regularly with light lubricating oil.
Check rubber hoses for damage.
Check level of hydraulic fluid and top up if necessary (use only good quality hydraulic fluids).
•
PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
Press correct operation and technical state should be inspected to ensure safety.
POSSIBLE HAZARDS DURING USE
The hazards that can occur during use of the machine are mechanical hazards. The mechanical hazard occurs
in situations in which injuries can result from mechanical impact of various elements, e.g. machine parts,
tools, etc. on people. The basic mechanical hazards include squeezing, crushing, cutting, impact; puncture;
abrasion; as well as slipping and stumbling. These hazards can occur both during normal machine operation
and as a result of irregularities in machine operation. These irregularities might result in machine failure.
The mechanical hazards can result from: moving machines, transported loads, moving elements, sharp/rough
elements, dropping elements/loads, slippery uneven surfaces, limited space, and location of the work station
in relation to the ground (work at heights and in depths).
VII. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Clean hydraulic press regularly. Remove all stains from work surface and the device after use. If unused for
prolonged periods of time, twist the release valve knob anticlockwise to release pressure in the hydraulic
system and disconnect compressed air hose (if applicable). All hydraulic press maintenance and inspection
works should be carried out by a trained and qualified member of staff. A person without the required
experience and knowledge should not attempt to complete these tasks.
VIII. REGULAR CONTROL OF THE MACHINE
Regularly check the machine for signs of damage. If it damage is found, stop using it immediately and contact
your customer service to solve the problem.
What to do in case of a problem?
Please contact your customer service and prepare following information:
•
Invoice number and serial number (the latter is to be found on the technical plate on the machine).
•
If relevant, a picture of the damaged, broken or defective part.
•
It will be easier for your customer service clerk to determine the source of the problem if you give a
detailed and precise description of the matter.
CAUTION: Never open the machine without the authorization of your customer service. This can lead to
loss of warranty!
After withdrawal from service, the device should not be disposed as household waste. Due to the
environmental protection, device must be returned to a designated waste collection. Detailed information
on institutions involved in the collection of such waste can be obtained from the local authorities.
