highoiltemperatures.
• Donotcleaninspectorrepairthetoolwhileconnectedtothepowersource.Accidentalengagementofthetool
can cause serious personal injury.
• Oilinjectionhazardexistswiththistool.Oilinjectionisaconditionwherehydraulicoilisinjectedunderthe
skinfrompressureintheline.Alwayswearglovesandrepairanyleaksimmediately.Nevercarryatoolbythe
hoses.
• Donotusedamagedequipment.Immediatelyreplaceanydamagedhoses,ttings,orothercomponents
showingwirebraid,nicks,cuts,damageorabrasions.Failuretodosomayresultinequipmentdamageand/or
personalinjuryordeath.
• Cleanupanyoiloruidspillsimmediately.
3.3. Personal/Safety equipment
• Neverwearlooseclothingthatcangetentangledintheworkingpartsofthetoolsorbecarelesswithhands,
feetorotherbodypartsaroundtheworkingpartsofthetools.Hydraulictoolsexerthightorqueandforceand
cancauseseriousinjuryordeathifimproperlyused.
• Whenworkingnearelectricalconductors,alwaysassumethattheconductorsareenergizedandthathosesand
clothingcanconductharmfulelectricity.Usehoseslabeledandcertiedasnonconductive.
• Alwayswearsafetyequipmentsuchasoilinjectionresistantworkgloves,safetyglasses,safetyboots,ear
protectionandothersafetyappareldictatedbyyoursupervisorapplicableforthejobyouaredoingandthetool
you are using.
• Theuseofancompressedair,whichmustbelessthan8BAR(116PSI),toblowpartscleanortoblowthem
dryafterbeingcleanedwithasolventwillcauseparticlesofdirtand/ordropletsofthecleaningsolventtobe

5. Operation
• Withthepowersourceinthe"OFF"position,connectthehoses.Donotdragtheservicehosesbypulling
withthetool.Looptheservicehoseintheworkareainsuchawaytorelievestressonthehoseandquick
disconnectttingswhileworking.Beawareofhoselocationatalltimes.
• Whentheweldisreadytobecut,positiontwopeople,oneoneachsideoftheshear.Theyshouldcarefully
placetheshearovertheweldandlockitintoplacewiththeholddownlegs.
• Turnthepowersource"ON"tosupply5GPM(19LPM)or10GPM(38LPM)
• Pushthecontrolvalveleverforwardtothelabeledshearpositiontomakethecut.Operatormustholdlever
intheshearpositionfortheentirecycle.Ifoperatorletsgooftheleverthecylinderwillstopduetothespring
centervalvedesign.
• Aftersheariscomplete,pullthecontrolvalveleverbackwardstothelabeledretractpostiontoretractthe
shearblades.Operatormustholdleverintheretractpositionfortheentirecycleduetothespringcentervalve
design.
• Turnpowersource"OFF".
• Toremoveshearfromtherail,loosenholddowns,positiontwopeople,oneoneachsideoftheshear,and
carefullyremovefromtherail.
NOTE!
• Oil temperature can e󰀨ect stroke time. Make sure oil temperature is at least
80°F / 27°C to achieve proper performance of weld shear cycle time.
NOTE!
• The weld shear is equipped with a factory set hydraulic ow cartridge to
assure the time to fully stroke the shear blades during an actual shear
operation shall be between 16 and 18 seconds.
NOTE!
• Place the shear on the rail prior to setting up the weld to adjust the hold
down legs. After hold down legs are adjusted, remove shear from rail to
prepare weld.

5.1. Blade wear
Asthebladeswear,thegapmaybeclosedbyadjustingthecylinderrodnutsattherearoftheshear.A1/32”gap
isrecommended.
5.2. Cold weather operation
Hydraulicsystemperformanceisa󰀨ectedwhenthetemperaturedropsbelow50°F.Therefore,measuresshouldbe
takentopre-warmtoolsanduidsbeforeoperating.

6. Review of hydraulic principles
Tool circuit
6.1. Hydraulic formulas
Example:HPrequiredtodeliver10GPMat1500PSI.
EstimatedHPdeliveredbypumporusedbytool
6.2. Back pressure
Backpressuremeasuredatthetoolreturnportmustnotexceedthemanufacturersbackpressurerating.Most
manufacturerslistthemaximumbackpressurefortheirhydraulictoolsat250PSI.Backpressuremeasuredon
thereturnsideofthetoolistheforcerequiredtogettheoilbacktothetank.Inalmostallcasesthelowertheback
pressurethebetterthetoolperformance.First,thebackpressureissubtractedfromthemaximumtoolpressure
toarriveatamaximumtooloperatingpressure.Forexample,toolswith2000PSIoperatingpressureareinstalled
onasystemwith250PSIbackpressure.Thisleaves1750PSIasamaximumtoolpressure.Imagineasystem
with500PSIbackpressure.2000Minus500PSIbackpressureleavesonly1500PSIforthetool.Second,tools
aredesignedforpressuretobuildonthepressuresideofthetool.Iftoomuchpressurebuildsonthereturnside,
notonlyisperformancee󰀨ected,butsealsmayblow.Thisiswhyitisveryimportanttodirecttheowintothetool
correctly.Reversingthehosestotestmayresultinblownseals,damagetothetool,andpersonalinjury.

basedhydraulicuidswithanti-wearpropertiesandaviscosityindexofover140workforawiderangeof
operatingconditions.
Havetoolinspected,atleastannually,byPandroloraPandrolqualiedservicerepresentativetodetermineiftool
isinneedofsafetychangesorwornpartreplacement.
