Setup
Connect the hydraulic pump hose to the fitting on the Roll Saver body.
Note: It is normal to see some movement of the hydraulic connection fitting in relation
to the body.
Hydraulic Connections
IMPORTANT
Seal all hydraulic connections with a high grade, nonhardening thread sealant. PTFE tape
may also be used to seal hydraulic connections if only one layer of tape is used. Apply the
tape carefully, two threads back, to prevent it from being pinched by the coupler and broken
off inside the pipe end. Any loose pieces of tape could travel through the system and obstruct
the flow of fluid or cause jamming of precision fit parts.
•Clean all areas around the fluid ports of the pump and cylinder. Clean all hose ends,
couplers, and union ends. Remove thread protectors from the hydraulic fluid outlets
and connect the hose assembly. Couple hose to cylinder.
•The use of a hydraulic pressure or tonnage gauge (not included) is strongly
recommended. Remove the pipe plug from the gauge port of the valve, thread the
gauge into this port and seal as noted above.
To help prevent personal injury,
•The gauge must have the same pressure rating as the pump and cylinder. Personal
injury can result if the wrong gauge is used.
•Release hydraulic pressure BEFORE removing or tightening hose couplings.

Operation
Mark I hand pumps can be operated in a horizontal position, or in a vertical position with
head pointing downward.
1. Place the roll on its side.
2. Ease the Roll Saver into the crushed core, ensuring that the pressure plate is located to
open against the crushed core area.
3. Turn the valve knob counterclockwise to a closed (seated) position until hand tight.
4. Operate the hydraulic pump using the pump handle. The pressure plate will expand
outward inside the core.
5. Open the release valve on the hydraulic pump to relieve the pressure, then reposition the
nose piece, if necessary, further into the core.
Note: Drive into core using sledge weight if necessary (See Spare Parts, on page 12).
6. Repeat steps 3-4 until the roll is completely restored.
Note: It is important to periodically "shock-set" the roll. While the pressure plate is
expanded inside the core, strike the roll hard along the roll circumference with a mallet or
heavy stick to release the internal stresses.
7. When the roll is restored, open the release valve on the Roll Saver, relieve the pressure
and remove the Roll Saver from the core.

Parts identification
Operation
Mark II hand pumps can be operated in a horizontal position, or in a vertical position with
head pointing downward.
To ease the Roll Saver into the crushed roll:
1. With jaw leaves closed, close the release valve on the hydraulic pump. Turn the valve
knob counterclockwise to a closed (seated) position until hand tight only.
2. Position the jaws as far as they will go into the crushed roll.
3. Pump the handle until the jaws open.
4. Open the release valve by turning the knob clockwise, then close the jaws by hand if
needed.
5. Repeat Steps 1-4 until the Roll Saver is completely inside the crushed roll.
6. With the jaws closed, rotate the Roll Saver so the jaws push out in the direction of the
maximum crush.
Note: It is important to periodically shock-set the roll. While the pressure plate is
expanded inside the core, strike the roll hard along the roll circumference with a mallet or
heavy stick to release the internal stresses.
7. When the roll is restored, open the release valve on the Roll Saver to close the jaws.
8. Remove the Roll Saver from the core.

Preventative Maintenance
Any repair or servicing that requires dismantling the pump must be performed in a
dirt-free environment by a qualified technician.
Lubrication
• Apply lubricant regularly to all pivot and rubbing points.
• Use a good grade of No. 10 motor oil or grease. Do not use dry lubricants.
Bleeding Air From the System
Air can accumulate in the hydraulic system during the initial set-up or after prolonged use,
causing the cylinder to respond slowly or in an unstable manner.
To remove the air:
1. Position the cylinder at a lower level than the pump and turn the cylinder rod end
down.
2. Extend and retract the cylinder several times without putting a load on the system. Air
will be released into the pump reservoir. Follow the fluid level instructions for your
model type to release the air from the reservoir and top off the fluid supply.
Bleeding Air From the Pump
When the pump is first put into use, or after refilling the pump’s reservoir it may be
necessary to bleed any trapped air from the pump. If this is not done the pump will not
function properly (will not build pressure or has very spongy operation).
To bleed air from the pump:
1. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise (CCW) and operate the pump
handle up and down approximately twenty times.
2. Turn the pressure control knob clockwise (CW) to its full stop position.
The pump should now be bled of air and ready to use.

Hydraulic Fluid Level
Cylinder(s) must be fully retracted before checking the fluid level. Release all system
pressure before breaking any hydraulic connection in the system.
Check the hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir periodically. Use a funnel with a filter to add
hydraulic fluid if needed.
For Mark II model:
1. Place the pump in a vertical position with the pump head facing upward.
2. Unscrew and remove the pump head from the reservoir. The fluid level within the
reservoir should come to the fluid level mark indicated on the reservoir body decal.
3. Before replacing the pump head, visually inspect the O-ring which seals the pump
head/reservoir assembly.
4. Replace this O-ring if it is worn or damaged.
5. Reinstall pump head to reservoir and tighten securely.
6. Check for leaks.
For Mark I model:
1. Remove the filler cap.
The fluid level should come to the bottom edge of the filler hole when the pump is
level and resting horizontally on its base and the cylinders are retracted. (see Figure 2).

Draining And Flushing the Reservoir
Drain, clean and replenish the reservoir with high-grade, approved Power Team hydraulic
fluid yearly or more often if necessary. The frequency of fluid change will depend upon the
general working conditions, severity of use and overall cleanliness and care given the pump.
IMPORTANT
Clean the exterior of the pump first. After draining and flushing the reservoir, drain and clean
the other hydraulic system components (hoses, cylinders, etc.) before connecting them to the
pump again. This will help prevent contaminated fluid from entering the pump.
For Mark II model:
1. Unthread and separate the pump head from the reservoir. Drain the reservoir of the
used hydraulic fluid.
2. Flush out reservoir with a small amount of clean hydraulic fluid. Clean the pump
intake filter.
Removing the filter from the pump assembly could result in its breakage. Attempt to clean it
as well as possible with it installed.
3. Refill the reservoir and reassemble the pump head to the reservoir.
4. Tighten securely.
5. Check for leaks.
For Mark I model:
1. Remove the filler cap. Drain the hydraulic fluid through filler hole.
2. Remove the nut from the tie rod. Separate the reservoir from the pump body. Clean
the reservoir and filter.
Removing the filter from the pump assembly could result in its breakage. Attempt to clean it
as well as possible while installed.
3. Reassemble and fill the reservoir with Power Team hydraulic fluid.
4. Replace the filler cap.

Page 10 of 12
For adaptation to 4", 5" or 6' Cores
(See page 12 for part numbers.)
Before installing adapter:
Disconnect the hydraulic pump from the Roll Saver body.
Remove the stock nose piece and expanding leaf pressure plate components.
Installing the adapter
Remove the stock nose piece
1. Remove the M8 setscrew (a) from the Roll Saver nose piece.
2. Using the spanner wrench provided in your adapter kit, unscrew the nose piece from the Roll
Saver body. Insert wrench pin (b) as shown and push handle down (c) to turn the nose piece
in the counterclockwise direction.
3. Pull the nose piece off of the body.
Remove the stock leaf pressure plate
4. Remove the expanding leaf pressure plate from the body by removing the two M8 button
head cap screws.
Note: The screws are threaded into guide bolts in
the Roll Saver body. There is a slot in the guide
bolt head with corresponding holes on the
underside of the body. To keep the guide bolt from
rotating while removing the screw, insert a pin or
rod into its corresponding hole, making sure that
the pin seats into the slot in the guide bolt.
