• Check hydraulic oil level in reservoir to
prevent pump failure.
• Start pump with directional valve in neutral
position to prevent accidental lifting or
moving of load.
• Have only qualified personnel check motor
nameplate against power availability to
prevent motor burnout or dangerous
electrical overloading.
• Keep extension cord length to
a minimum and sizes to electric code.
Do not use standard electrical equipment
in an explosive atmosphere. Use
grounded receptacle.
• Adhere to all applicable local and national
electrical codes.
• Do not exceed capacity of equipment
attached to pump. Use a gauge in line
and do not exceed pressure rating of
lowest capacity pressurized component
in the system.
Upon receipt of pump...
1. Remove oil fill plug.
2. Reservoir oil level should be checked
(with all cylinders retracted).
3. If necessary, add ENERPAC hydraulic oil.
CAUTION:The use of other fluids may
cause extensive damage to
the pump. Such damage is
not covered by GB Warranty.
4. Replace oil fill plug.
WARNING:Pump overload protection is factory
set. Adjustment by other than
qualified personnel may cause
malfunction and/or damage to
component parts of the system.
NOTE: Maximum Hydraulic Pressure
generated by this unit is 10,000 PSI.

Electrical Hook-up
Hushh-Pumps
(PE22J / PE24J Series Models)
Plug in unit, use 115 volt AC grounded power source. (Unit
arrives wired for 115 volt operation.) See pump nameplate
for pertinent electrical requirements. (Motor rotation must
be counterclockwise looking down at shroud.) Motor is
wired this way at factory.
Hushh-Pumps (PE34J / PE34R
30 Series, 40 Series and 50 Series Models)
1. Check motor voltage on motor nameplate (located on
side of motor housing). When shipped from factory,
single phase, 110/220 volt, 60 cycle motors are wired
for 110 volts. Three phase, 208/220/440 volt, 60 cycle
motors have accessible motor leads under shroud.
Motor rotation must be clockwise.
2. Plug cord into proper electrical outlet or provide
wiring as required. To rewire single phase motors for
200 volts or three phase motors for 440 volts, see
diagram on motor nameplate, or under motor cover.
Have only qualified electrical personnel complete the
necessary wiring.

Installing Gauge
1. Screw the gauge adaptor into valve port
(3⁄8" NPT).
2. A shut-off valve is recommended when using
a hydraulic gauge.
3. Screw gauge into gauge adaptor.
4. Make sure connections are tight. If necessary
seal threaded connections with pipe dope or
teflon tape.
Hose Connection
1. Screw 3⁄8" NPT hose end into gauge adaptor.
2. Connect hose half of high-flow coupler to cylinder
half of coupler (furnished with all GB cylinders).
3. Tighten both connections.
NOTE: Make sure couplers are wiped clean
when making or breaking a connection.
High-flow coupler halves seal themselves
against oil leakage when disconnected.
Dust caps should be attached to prevent
dirt from entering exposed ends of high-
flow coupler when disconnected.

Pump Operation
PE22J/PE24J
Start the unit using the 3 position toggle switch
located in the shroud.
Regular: Switch up is for continuous
operation; Switch down is for
jogging operation; Off is in the
center position.
Remote Jog with a remote control jog pendant
station:
Switch up is for continuous
operation; Switch down is for
remote jogging; Off is in the
center position.
Hushh-Pumps (PE34J/PE34R)
1. Make sure all hose connections are tight and
the power cord is connected properly.
2. Turn air vent screw counterclockwise 2 or 3 turns.
3. Push motor switch to "On" position.
4. Let pump idle for a few minutes.
5. To advance plunger, press the "advance" button
on the push-button station. For manual valves,
place valve in "advance" position.
6. To retract plunger, press the "retract" button on
the push-button station. For manual valves, place
the valve in "retract" position.
NOTE: For operation and control of 3 and 4-way
valves, see valve instruction sheet.
Removal of Air
The hydraulic system, when connected for the first
time, will have air in the system. The air must be
removed for safety and proper operation. Air can
generally be removed from the system by fully
advancing and retracting the hydraulic cylinder
several times. When the trapped air is removed from
the hydraulic circuit, the cylinders will advance and
retract smoothly. Sluggish cylinder action is usually
the first sign of air in the system.
WARNING: Do not exceed cylinder
capacity or stroke.
Adjusting Relief Valve
PE22J/PE24J
1. Gauge adaptor, gauge, and shut-off valve must
be installed in the system between pump and
cylinder. Remove the air vent.
2. Start motor. Purge air from the system.
3. Press the advance button or place the manual
valve in advance.
4. Insert 7⁄32" Allen wrench through hole and into
adjusting screw.
5. Turn adjusting screw to obtain desired pressure
(or load) reading on gauge:
Counterclockwise to reduce gauge reading;
Clockwise to increase gauge reading.
WARNING: Do not exceed the pump
operating pressure.
6. Check valve setting by operating the valve
several times in the advance and retract
positions. Maximum gauge reading should
remain constant.
Hushh Pumps (PE34J/PE34R)
1. Remove flush pipe plug from side of reservoir.
2. Insert 5⁄16" Allen wrench into adjusting screw.
3. Turn adjusting screw to obtain desired pressure
(or load) reading on gauge.

Periodic Maintenance
1. Check hydraulic oil level every 40 hours of
operation. Add ENERPAC hydraulic oil when
necessary to maintain proper level.
WARNING: Do not overfill or add oil with
hydraulic cylinders advanced.
2. Completely change hydraulic oil every 300
hours of operation. In extremely dusty or dirty
areas, the oil must be changed more
frequently.
Cleaning Oil Filter Screen
1. Remove cap screws.
2. Lift pump unit and cover off the reservoir. Be
careful not to damage gasket.
3. Remove screen retainer screw on bottom of
pump unit.
4. Flush screen with clean solvent or similar
cleaning agent.

Power Unit Servicing (Electric Motor)
1. Out-of-Service Protection (30 days or more)
A. Wipe entire unit to remove all dirt, etc.
B. Provide a suitable cover over the entire unit.
C. Make sure all electrical connections are
disconnected to prevent accidental starting.
D. Priming if needed:
Tilt unit and jog motor unit (switch down)
several times - allow motor to idle to a
complete stop between "jogs". Return unit to
an upright position. Switch to the "run"
position (switch up) and allow unit to operate
for about five (5) minutes. The foregoing
steps are essential to prime the high
pressure pistons.
2. Temperature Protection
A. See that nothing obstructs the air flow
around the motor and pump.
B. Keep motor clean (internal and external) for
maximum cooling.
C. In areas of high temperature, it may be
necessary to provide additional cooling.
Install an air cooled heat exchanger available
from your GB Distributor.
