SAFEGUARDING THE POINT OF OPERATION
ANSI B11.2 – Hydraulic Power Presses
Safety Requirements for Construction, Care and Use
It is important that Dake press users have a clear understanding of their responsibility involving the
care and use of their Dake hydraulic press, including point-of-operation safeguards. Dake strongly
recommends that Dake press users obtain a copy of the current American National Standard Institute
(ANSI) B11.2 standard, for a more complete understanding of their responsibilities.
ANSI B11.2 states the following, relative to point of operation safeguarding:
“Normally, only the employer (press user) can determine the requirements of the press productions
system components, including the dies and methods for feeding. Therefore, the employer is ultimately
responsible to designate and provide the point-of-operation safeguarding system”.
The standard also discusses additional responsibilities of the employer. Some of the key
responsibilities are:
The employer is responsible for the safety, use and care of the hydraulic power press production
system.
The employer is responsible to consider the sources of hazards for all tasks to be implemented on the
hydraulic power press production system.
The employer is required to eliminate, or control identified hazards in the scope of their work activity.
The employer is responsible for the training of personnel, caring for, inspecting, maintaining, and
operating hydraulic press production systems to ensure their competence.
The employer is responsible to provide and ensure that point-of-operation safeguarding is used,
checked, maintained and where applicable, adjusted on ever production operation performed on a
press production system.
A complete and current copy of the ANSI B11.2 standard can be obtained by contacting the

Machine Procedures
Loading and Unloading Machine:
WARNING!
- Be sure the maximum capacity of each strap is greater than the total
weight of the press.
- Do not make sudden movements when transporting the machine.
- The manufacturer is not responsible for damage to the machine while loading or unloading the
press.
Filling Oil Pump Reservoir:
- Required Oil is DTE 24 Hydraulic Oil.
- To fill the pumping unit, use exclusively the oils indicated in the table on the next page or
equivalent. The environmental conditions must be considered before purchasing oil. To
transfer the oil from the container to the tank use an external filter as shown in Figure 2
preventing the introduction of foreign material or liquids at the time of filling.
- OIL CAPACITY IS 22.5 US GALLONS.

Pump Rotation:
- After making the electrical connections to the press it is necessary to make a visual check on
the direction of rotation of the electric motor.
- Before checking the direction of rotation of the pump, fill the reservoir with oil see Fig. 6
1. Unscrew the inspection cap.
2. Identify a reference point on the drive shaft.
3. Power up the motor for Max. 1-2 seconds.
4. Check that the rotation of the shaft coincides with that of the arrow shown on the top of
the unit shown in figure 7.
5. Screw down inspection cap.
NOTE: If the motor rotates in the wrong direction: See your electrician.
Any damage caused by wrong electrical connection is not covered by
warrant
Electrical Connections (220V/440V):
- This machine is dual voltage 220 3 phase / 440 3 phase. The amp rating on these machines
are 9.7 amps on 220 Volt 3 phase and 5.6 amp on 440 Volt 3 phase.
- For proper operation it is necessary to ensure constant voltage and it must not exceed or be
lower than 5% of the rated value
- Before making any electrical connection confirm voltage rating of the machine. There is a black
plastic box mounted on top of the reservoir
- Remove the two mounting screws that hold this box in place. Under this box you will see one of
the following possibilities in Fig. 5. After confirming or changing this to the correct voltage mount
the cover with the two screws. Now, open the electrical panel on the transformer be sure it is
set for the correct output voltage.
NOTE:
- Only a certified electrician that follows local and state laws is authorized to perform
any type of electrical connection on this machine. The electrical power supply voltage
must be made in compliance with local and state laws.
- Be sure there is no power to the machine before checking the following
connections. It may be necessary to lock out the machine for proper power
disconnection.

First Start Up:
- After filling the reservoir through the fill cap, it is necessary to prime the pump. Check that all
the valves and distributors are in the rest position, at the time of starting do not operate any
movement.
- To prime, jog the start button (electric motor). When the unit emits a dull sound with no jumps
and the sound of the pump is constant. An uneven “tinny” noise indicates there is air in the
pump.
- The oil in the reservoir may fall on start up. Therefore, it is necessary to top off the level of oil
bringing it up to the correct height, by checking the level gauge. The level should be about
halfway up the stick.
Joystick Operation:
- Pulling -the lever toward the operator (Pos. 2) the piston rod lowers.
- Pushing -the lever from the opposite side to the operator (Pos. 3) the piston rod will go up.
- Releasing -the lever will return to the neutral position stopping the ram from moving (Pos. 1).

Worktable Height Adjustment:
- To optimize the use of the press it is necessary to set the worktable at a convenient height in
relation to the operation to be carried out and to the equipment to be used.
- Before proceeding to lift the mobile table, check that:
1. The eyebolts fixed to the worktable are fully tightened (Pos. 01).
2. The eyebolt support (nose piece) is properly screwed onto the cylinder ram
(Pos. 2).
3. The eyebolts fixed to the nose piece are fully tightened.
Procedure
1. Hook the chains (Pos. 5) to the respective eyebolts and lift the cylinder ram until the chains are
set under tension but, do not lift the table.
2. Check the chain connections to all eyebolts to ensure a safe secure connection.
3. When the connection is safe, lift the table just above the desired table height.
4. Take the split pins (Pos. 6) off the pins then remove the pins.
5. Insert the pins to the desired work table height pin location then, insert the split pins.
6. Slowly move the table down until it rests on the table pins.
7. Check to be sure the position and the assembly of the pins are correct.
8. Unhook the chains and leave them hang in a downward position (Pos. 5).

Trouble Shooting Issues
Question: Foam forms in the fluid?
Solution: Fluid level too low. Fluid unsuitable. Fittings or joints let air inside the hydraulic system.
Bring back up to correct level. Replace with suitable fluid. Replace or tighten fittings.
Discharge the remaining air from the system
Question: Pump delivers little to no fluid?
Solution: The pump is worn or damaged. Replace and recondition pump to solve.
Question: Ram moves in the neutral position?
Solution: 4-way valve is not functioning correctly. Test the 4-way valve for proper function
Question: Machine will not build desired pressure.
Solution: Relief valve needs to be reset. Remove octane cap from back of manifold and adjust set
screw to correct pressure
Question: Oil leaks around the ram?
Solution: Cylinder seals are worn or damaged. Replace the cylinder seals.
Question: Oil leaks around holes other than the ram?
Solution: Bolts need to be tightened. Tighten the bolts around the ram to fix this issue.
Question: The ram will not exceed the full true maximum length.
Solution: Check the oil in the reservoir. If the oil is low, refill the reservoir with the correct fluid
(DTE 24 Hydraulic Oil).
Question: The hydraulic gauge will not read pressure?
Solution: There is a good possibility that the mechanical pressure gauge has failed. Replace the
gauge.
