1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATION

2.1. Introduction. The VS7011.V3 is supplied with a 1 ton hydraulic hand pump unit that

powers the ram and yoke assembly. Up to 50% quicker than using other ratchet driven spring

compressors. Equipped with 2 pairs of spring yokes with plasticised covers to prevent slippage

and damage to springs.

VS7011.V3 - 1 - 110106 VS7011.V3 - 1 - 110106

!WARNING! Measure the outer diameter of the spring to be

compressed and select the correct set of jaws.

DANGER! Do not compress the spring to an extent

where the coil windings touch. (See fig.2-A)

#Ensure that the centre line of the spring remains

parallel to the compressor body at all times. This

applies to both straight springs and conical springs. The

spring should not be touching the piston or body of the

compressor. (See fig.2-B)

#Secure the strut with a clamp, vice or other adequate

holding device.

#Before use check compressor assembly for signs of

damage and particularly ensure jaws are in good

condition and securely mounted.

4.1. To Compress a Strut Removed From a Vehicle.

4.1.1. Screw the selected jaws onto the ram body and the

piston respectively. Ensure that the recessed sides of

the jaws are facing each other.

4.1.2. Operate the pump handle (see fig.1) to drive the jaws

together to the approximate length of the spring and to

allow compression of as many windings as possible.

4.1.3. Place the spring strut compressor onto the spring,

ensuring the spring seats correctly into both the upper

and the lower jaws and cannot slide out during

compression. (See fig.2-D & E)

4.1.4. Ensure that the centre lines of the spring and

compressor body are parallel. (See fig.2).

4.1.5. Operate the pump handle (see fig.1) and compress the

spring until the upper support bearing is free and the

spring will rotate.

4.2. To Decompress a Strut Removed From a Vehicle.

4.2.1. To decompress the spring, reverse the compressing

procedure.

5.1. Before each use check the compressor to ensure it is

not damaged or worn. If suspect do not use the unit, but contact your local Sealey

Dealer who will be able to advise you.

5.2. After use, release the hydraulic pressure and grease the piston rod using LM grease.

5.3. Keep the compressor clean, and when not in use store in a safe, dry, childproof location.

5. MAINTENANCE

4. OPERATION Fig.2.

3. ASSEMBLY

3.1. Assembly. Connect the hose to the ram unit as shown in fig.1. Ensure the hose

connectors are fully done up but do not over tighten. See fig.1 for valve operation.

3.2. Ensure the jaws are fully screwed down.

3.3. Screw locking ring against bottom jaw to prevent jaw rotating.
