DESCRIPTION
Palmgren Arbor Presses are designed for riveting, squeezing,
bending, punching, flattening, removing a bearing or pressing
in bearings. Removable, rotating, machined anvil has 4-slots
to provide convenient support for workpieces that vary in
size and shape. Presses are suited for work in production lines
as well as in machine shops, automotive repair shops and
home workshops. Model 61051 is a 0.5-ton press, 61201 is a
2-ton press, 61301 is a 3-ton press and 61401 is a 4-ton press.
SAFET RULES
•For best operation, the arbor press must be bolted to a
stationary object that is also affixed to the floor.
•When using the press, be sure the work is mounted
securely in it. Do not attempt to use the press with the
workpiece mounted on an angle.
•Use only accessories designed for the arbor press.
Attachments and equipment used in the pressing opera-
tion must be as strong as the press. Use steel collars and
blocks to press against the workpiece.
•Do not overload the press by using handle extensions
(cheater bars).
•When not in use, the ram should be in the down position
to prevent accidents.
•Know the arbor press and accessories. Read and under-
stand owner’s manual.
•Wear a face shield or safety glasses.
•Never place hands in jeopardy.
•Always check your set up, i.e., see that the ram contacts
workpiece squarely before applying pressure.
•Keep your mind on your work. Be alert.
•Make sure workpiece, punch, anvil and accessories are
securely clamped.
•Don’t force the arbor press or its accessories.

To install handle, remove cap and bolt from handle (Ref.
Nos. 4, 5 and 7). Insert handle into pinion (Ref. No. 3) and
replace cap and bolt. Secure handle in position with knob

upside down so the punch hole is facing down. Replace
pinion, pinion retaining ring and set screw. Insert the
punch (Ref. No. 17) best suited to the job. Magnet inside
ram will secure punch in position. Set screws (Ref. No.11)
will ease or restrict the ram action. Adjust to your

screw by tightening the hex nut until it bottoms out on
the arbor press frame.
MAINTENANCE
•Oil the pinion periodically through the oil fitting, and
grease the ram rack whenever necessary. Keep a light film
of oil on machined surface to prevent rust. Keep work area
clean. Clean the arbor press of dirt and debris after every
use.
•If the ram is loose and drops by itself, loosen hex nuts
and tighten screws (Ref. Nos. 11 and 12) for adjustment.
All screws should be tightened with the same amount of
pressure. Secure set screws by tightening nuts.
