IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY
ALERT
SYMBOL
This symbol is used to call your attention to hazards or
unsafe practices which could result in an injury or prop-
erty damage. The signal word, dened below, indicates
the severity of the hazard. The message after the signal
word provides information for preventing or avoiding the
hazard.
Immediate hazards which, if not avoided, WILL result in
severe injury or death.
Hazards which, if not avoided, COULD result in severe
injury or death.
Hazards or unsafe practices which, if not avoided, MAY
result in injury or property damage.
Read and understand all of the instruc-
tions and safety information in this
manual before operating or servicing
this tool.
Failure to observe this warning will
result in severe injury or death.
Do not connect the pump to any system or system compo-
nent other than those supplied by DMC. Other manufactur-
ers’ components may not withstand the maximum pressure
and may fail. Nearby personnel can be injured by ying
components and hydraulic oil.
Failure to observe this warning will result in severe injury
or death.
Do not alter the internal high-pressure relief valve setting.
Altering this setting will change the maximum pressure the
pump can develop, which can cause a component failure.
Nearby personnel can be injured by ying components and
hydraulic oil.
Failure to observe this warning will result in severe injury
or death.
Do not use this pump in a hazardous
environment. Hazards include am-
mable liquids, gases, or other materials.
Using this pump in a hazardous environ-
ment can result in a re or explosion.
Failure to observe this warning will
result in severe injury or death.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Electric shock hazard:
• Do not expose power tools to rain.
• Do not immerse the pendant switch in
water or other liquid.
• Do not crimp live cables or conduc-
tors. Before starting to work, make sure
there are no live lines in the work area.
Failure to observe these warnings could
result in severe injury or death.
Skin injection hazard:
• Do not use hands to check for leaks.
• Depressurize hydraulic system before
servicing or disconnecting the hose.
High pressure oil easily punctures skin,
causing serious injury, gangrene, or death.
If injured, seek medical help immediately
to remove oil.
Wear eye protection when using this tool.
Failure to wear eye protection could result
in serious eye injury from ying debris or
hydraulic oil.
Inspect pump, hoses, couplers, and ttings for wear or
damage. Replace worn, damaged, or missing components
with DMC replacement parts. Worn or damaged compo-
nents can fail, resulting in injury.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe injury
or death.
Fill unit with hydraulic oil before
operating pump.
Failure to ll unit with oil will result in
damage to the pump.
• Do not use hose or cord to pull, lift, or carry the equip-
ment. Misuse will damage the hose or cord.
• To avoid accidental start-up, turn the program selection
switch to position 7 before transporting the tool.
Failure to observe these precautions may result in injury or
property damage.
Make sure all hose ttings are properly seated before start-
ing the pump. Incomplete connections may not allow the
accessory’s ram to retract after the hydraulic operation is
nished.

SetupFeatures of the Pump
• This pump is equipped with a brake, which stops the
forward motion of the piston/dies when the trigger is
released.
• The unit is equipped with a double piston pump, which is
characterized by a rapid approach of the dies toward the
connector and a slow crimping motion.
• All tool functions can be controlled by the rocker trigger,
resulting in easy handling.
• The pump is equipped with a microprocessor, which
indicates service intervals and low battery charges. It also
performs internal checks, sending out acoustical and optical
warning signals in case of a detected fault.
• The pump can be operated and transported in all positions
without any oil leakages.
• This tool is equipped with a circuit board, incorporating
several important features to inform the user about the
current status of the unit.
• Before operating the pump, the charging level of the battery
should be tested. A low charging level can be detected by
the LCD display.
• The pressure units may be displayed in bar or psi. To change
the units, set the selection switch to 7, depress the pendant
toggle three times, and then hold the toggle switch to change
the display.
• An optional foot pedal actuator (HPU13M-FP) is available
for purchase through DMC and can be used in place of the
provided hand pendant. To us the foot pedal, remove the
hand pendant from the Pendant Switch Socket (item 9) and
install the foot pedal connector into that Socket.
Hydraulic Connection
1. Clean all couplers, threaded ttings, ports, and the area
around all ports.
2. Remove any dust caps from couplers.
3. Hand-tighten all couplings rmly (until all threads are
fully engaged). Do not use tools.
