HOSES AND FITTINGS
There exists the potential for shock in using anything other
than certified nonconductive hoses and hydraulic oil with
dielectric properties, when using system components near
energized electrical lines. Failure to recognize these conditions
could cause electrocution.
Hoses and fittings used with this tool must comply with S.A.E. J1273 which covers
recommended practice for selection, installation, and maintenance of hose and hose
assemblies. The correct hoses and fittings are available from your supplier.
WARNING: Failure to comply with these warnings could result in severe bodily injury.
WARNING
UNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONSUNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONS
UNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONSUNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONS
UNIT/HOSE CONNECTIONS
ALWAYS DISCONNECT pump/power source and move toggle switch
to OFF before connecting or disconnecting any components.
ALWAYS DEPRESSURIZE hydraulic system, before slowly
disconnecting this unit or any of the systems components.
ALWAYS TIGHTEN couplings completely. Loose or improperly
tightened couplings will not allow fluid to pass through the
hose creating a blockage in the supply or return line.
ALWAYS INSPECT HOSES AND CONNECTORS before
connection to tool. Replace or repair if any leakage is evident.
Leakage is a sign of deterioration in component parts. Worn or
leaking parts must be repaired or replaced, or tool damage or
severe injury could result.
WARNING
HOSE INSTALLATION
ALWAYS ENSURE CONNECTORS ARE CLEAN
SINGLE ACTING - Connect the hose to the pressure port on the
power source, then connect to the port on the tool.
DOUBLE ACTING - Care must be taken to assure the correct
connection of the hoses to the pressure and return (tank) ports.
Connect the return hose to the return (tank) port on the power
source, then to the return port on the tool.
Connect the pressure hose to the pressure port on the tool, then
to the “P” pressure port on the power source.
Operation with hydraulic flow reversed can cause malfunction.
Failure to fully comply can result in severe injury or death.

Engine Power Rating Information
The gross power rating for individual gas
engine models is labeled in accordance with
SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code
J19400 (Small Engine Power and Torque
Rating Procedure), and rating performance has
been obtained and corrected in accordance with
SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values
are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower values
are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine
power will be lower and is affected by, among
other things, ambient operating conditions and
engine to engine variability. Given both the
wide array of products on which engines are
placed and the variety of environmental issues
applicable to operating the equipment, the
gas engine will not develope the rated gross
power when used in a given power equipment
(actual “on-ste” or power). This difference is
due to a variety of factors including, but not
limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust,
charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.)
application limitations, ambient operating
conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude),
and engine-to-engine variability.
Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations,
Briggs & Stratton or Reliable Equipment &
Service Co., Inc. may substitute an engine
of higher rated power for this Series engine.

Before disassembly, disconnect hoses as described in this manual.
Any residual pressure within the unit can and will spray at
high velocity, injuring the person doing the disassembly. Hot or
pressurized hydraulic fluid will cause serious injury or death.
Complete disassembly is not recommended. Return the unit
to an authorized dealer for total disassembly and/or repair.
WARNING
All maintenance or disassembly should take place on a flat, clean work surface covered
with towels or wipers so as to have a clean space for the disassembled parts.
Inspect each part during disassembly for wear, scratches, and cuts. Discard the worn or
damaged parts and replace with new factory authorized parts.
O-rings are sensitive to sharp edges. Inspect closely for cuts or damage. A small cut will
cause a leak. When assembling or disassembling O-rings, use hydraulic fluid as a
lubricant to help disassembly or installation.
