unexpectedly upon it), discontinue use until checked out by an Porto-Power Blackhawk Automotive authorized
service center. Owners and operators of this equipment shall be aware that the use and subsequent repair of this
equipment may require special training and knowledge. It is recommended that an annual inspection be done by
qualied personnel and that any missing or damaged parts, decals, warning/safety labels or signs be replaced with
factory authorized replacement parts only. Any component of this Porto-Power Kit that appears to be damaged in
any way, is worn or operates abnormally shall be removed from service immediately until such time as it can be
repaired/replaced. Labels and Operator's Manuals are available from manufacturer.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Porto-Power Kits are designed to be used for pushing, spreading, and pressing of vehicle body panels as well as
various component parts and assemblies. A variety of attachments are included. B65114 is rated at 8,000 PSI;
B65115 is rated at 10,000 PSI. Rams are rated from 4 to 10 tons respectively.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or property damage, ensure that the rated working
pressure of each pressurized attachment be equal to or greater than the rated working pressure developed
by the hydraulic pump.
Always check connections before using. Alteration of these products is strictly prohibited. Use only those
adapters and attachments provided and approved by the manufacturer.
Note: when extension tubes and/or offset attachments are used, the rated capacity is always reduced by 50% for
each tube or offset attachment connected. See Parts Section for identication of “offset” attachments.

Failure to comply with the following warnings
may result in personal injury as well as
property damage.
• Study, understand, and follow all instructions
provided with and on this device before use.
• The user must be a qualied operator familiar
with the correct operation, maintenance, and use of rams.
Wear protective gear when
operating hydraulic equipment.
This device is NOT suitable for use as support
device! As the load is lifted, use blocking and
cribbing to guard against a falling load. Stay
clear of a lifted load before it is properly supported .
Never rely on hydraulic pressure to support a load.
Crush Hazard. Keep hands and feet
away from ram and workpiece
during operation.
• Do not exceed rated capacity of the ram or
any equipment in the system. The ram is
designed for a max. pressure of 10,000 psi.
• Do not connect a ram to a pump with higher
pressure rating.
• Do not subject ram to a shock loads, a load
dropped suddenly, causing the system pressure to
exceed rated pressure.
The system operating pressure must not exceed
the pressure rating of the lowest rated component
the system. Install a pressure gauge or other load
measuring instrument to monitor the operating pressure. Burst
hazard exists if hose, connection or any other component in
the system exceed its rated pressure.
Avoid damaging hydraulic hose. Do not allow
hose to kink, twist, curl, crush, cut or bend so
tightly that uid ow within the hose is blocked or
reduced. Periodically inspect the hose for wear.
Do not pull, position or move ram setup by
the hose. Use carrying handle or other means
of safe transport.
Do not handle pressurized hoses. Never attempt
to grasp a leaking pressurized hose. Ensure to
release the system pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic hose or connections.
Hydraulic uid can ignite and burn. Keep
hydraulic equipment away from ames and
heat. Excessive heat will soften seals, resulting in
uid leaks. Heat also weakens hose materials.
Ram must be on a stable base which is able
to support the load while pushing or lifting. Use
shims, friction material or constrains to prevent
slippage of the base or load. Ensure ram is fully engaged
into/onto adapters, extension accessories.
Center load on ram. Distribute load evenly
across the entire saddle surface. Do not
off-center loads on a ram. The load can tip
or the ram can “kick out”.
Never try to disassemble a hydraulic ram,
refer repairs to qualied, authorized personal.
Contact Porto-power tech service for authorized
service center.
Do not subject hose to sharp objects or
heavy impact.
Hose material or seals must not come in
contact with corrosive materials such as
battery acid, creosote-impregnated objects
and wet paint. Never paint a coupler or hose.
• No alteration shall be made to the ram.
• Use only factory authorized fasteners,
accessories and hydraulic uid.

BEFORE USE
1. Before using this product, read the owner's manual
completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with
the product, its components and recognize the
hazards associated with its use.
2. Inspect before each use. Do not use if bent, broken,
leaking or damaged components are noted.
3. Check to ensure that all parts of your kit are included
(see illustration and parts list).
4. Carefully remove the dust caps and plugs from hose
coupler and ram coupler.
5. Connect hose coupler to ram coupler, ensure that
there are no uid leaks.
6. Locate and open release valve. Close release
valve clockwise and pump handle until ram is fully
extended, then open release valve counter-clockwise
until ram has fully retracted.
7. With ram fully retracted and release valve open, place
pump in horizontal position. Open oil ller screw (on
reservoir body, near the back). This will release air
trapped within the reservoir. Re-tighten the oil ller
screw.
8. If using with air actuated units, an air source of at
least 7.8 CFM @ 110 psi is required.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Ensure that attachments are fully engaged before
applying load.
2. Ensure that load is centrally applied to attachment or
ram saddle. Do not load off center.
3. Always monitor the force applied to workpiece by
using a load cell and indicator or you may monitor
pressure developed in the ram by using an inline
pressure gauge, then calculate the applied force
using the formula:
F = P x A, where F = lb force, P = pressure in psi,
and A = effective ram area in in2.
Ram Area of Model B65114 is: 0.998 in2
Ram Area of Model B65115 is: 2.411 in2
Refer to Load-Pressure correlation chart on page 11.
If bowing or bending of ram or any attachment occurs
during use, "STOP", release pressure immediately
and reconsider application. Application may not
be compatible with product, a ram kit with a higher
capacity may be needed.
Figure 2 - Horizontal and Vertical position
OPERATION
ALWAYS monitor pressure, load or position
using suitable equipment. Pressure may be
monitored by means of an optional manifold and
gauge. Load may be monitored by means of a load
cell and digital indicator.
Note: Any attachment that is not loaded centrally,
as through the centerline of the ram, is considered
to be “offset”. When extension tubes and/or offset
attachments are used, the rated capacity is always
reduced by 50% for each tube or offset attachment
connected.
1. Pump may be used in horizontal and vertical position
as illustrated on gure 2 below.
2. Locate and close release valve by turning it clockwise
until rmly closed. (Do not over tighten)
3. Operate by pumping handle. This will send uid
from the pump reservoir into the high pressure hose
assembly and into the ram assembly.
4. Continue pumping until ram reaches desired
position.
NEVER operate pump with release valve
closed and disconnected from application. If
operated in this condition, the hose and connections
become pressurized. This increases burst hazard.
Damage may occur to pump and its components.
5. To Release Pressure on work piece: Slowly, carefully
turn the release valve counter-clockwise until ram
retracts to desired position. Never turn release
valve more than 1/2 full turn. The ram return system
is spring loaded and the release valve system is
metered, allowing controlled retraction of the ram.

Basic Setup
The capacity of the body repair kit can be signicantly affected by the number of attachments used and the type of
load applied. The approximate load capacity of each function setup is illustrated below. When two or more extension
tubes are used together, be sure to position the shortest tube further away from the ram.
