IMPORTANT RECEIVING INSTRUCTIONS: Visually inspect all components for shipping damage. If any shipping damage
is found, notify carrier at once. Shipping damage is NOT covered by warranty. The carrier is responsible for all repair or
replacement costs resulting from damage in shipment.
To prevent injury keep hands away from the punch and die while punching holes. Always wear
approved eye protection.
Avoid dropping the cylinder. During punch operation, support the cylinder to prevent it from
falling after punching is completed.
To prevent thread damage, be sure punch is threaded onto the stud until the stud extends
beyond the punch. Make sure all rods, studs and punches are secured before operating
hydraulic driver.
Do not operate near live circuits. Contact with live circuits can cause injury or death.
Never exceed rated capacity of the tool. Use this tool for its intended use only.
Never operate the pump lever after the ram motion stops. Continued operation after ram motion
stops will damage driver and could result in injury.

KOS5290 Kit Components:

Drilling Guide Holes
1. Mark the center position, drill a 1/8" pilot hole. Enlarge
the hole with a 7/16" drill to provide pull rod clearance.
a. I f working to close tolerances, mark the center
position by scribing cross lines shown in Figure 1
b. When assembling the punch to the pull rod, align the
cross marks with the four marks on the outer die surface.
NOTE: If pre-punched knockouts are already in the
desired location, drilling a guide hole is not required.
2. For larger holes 3/4" to 2-1/2", the 1/2" punch is used to
make the guide hole.
Punching 1/2" Holes
1. Thread the pull stud into the pull stud adapter end until
firmly seated. (Figure 2)
NOTE: The pull stud and pull stud adapter are only used
with the 1/2" punch. The 1/2" punch is used to make
guide holes for larger punch sizes.
2. Attach the pull stud adapter to the cylinder by inserting
the pull stud adapter into the plunger opening and
threading until the pull stud extends beyond the end of
the cylinder. (Figure 3)
3. Slide the 1/2" die over the pull stud, flat side toward
the cylinder.
4. Insert the pull stud through the guide hole (Figure 4).
Attach the 1/2" punch to the pull stud. Turn the punch until
it is completely threaded onto the pull stud.
5. Close the pump release valve by turning it clockwise
(Figure 5). Hold the punch set in position, work the pump
handle until the punch completely penetrates the metal.
6. Remove the punch set from the hole. Turn pump release
valve counterclockwise to open. The cylinder will retract
and the slug must be removed from between the punch
and die.
Punching 3/4" through 2-1/2" Holes
1. Drill a pilot hole(7/16") install the 1/2" punch and make
guide hole. See Punching 1/2" Holes.
2. Remove the 1/2" punch and die set. Also remove the
pull stud and pull stud adapter.
3. Attach the pull rod (KPR7520) to the cylinder by inserting
the rod into the plunger opening and threading until the
pull rod extends beyond the end of the cylinder.
4. Select the punch set needed. Slide the die over the
pull rod.
5. Place the pull rod into the 1/2" guide hole, thread the
punch onto the pull rod. Be sure the pull rod extends
beyond the punch.
6. Operate the hand punch until the punch penetrates the
metal. Open the punch release valve. Remove the slug.
Note: To avoid excessive wear and tear on the pull rod threads during
punching, center the guide hole accurately enough so that the pull rod
does not rest against the metal edge of the guide hole. Also, be sure
that all points of the punch are in uniform contact with the metal surface
when starting to punch.
