avoided, may result in property damage.
IMPORTANT: Important is used when action or lack of action can cause equipment failure, either
immediate or over a long period of time.
Safety Symbols and Denitions
WARNING:
• The following procedures must be performed by qualied, trained personnel who
are familiar with this equipment. Operators must read and understand all safety
precautions and operating instructions included with the pump. If the operator cannot
read these instructions, operating instructions and safety precautions must be read
and discussed in the operator's native language.
• These products are designed for general use in normal environments. These products
are not designed for lifting and moving people, agri-food machinery, certain types of
mobile machinery, or in special work environments such as: explosive, ammable, or
corrosive. Only the user can decide the suitability of this product in these conditions or
extreme environments. SPX Hydraulic Technologies will supply information necessary
to help make these decisions. Consult your nearest SPX Hydraulic Technologies
facility, refer to SPX Hydraulic Technologies Facilities in this document.
• Safety glasses must be worn at all time by the operator and anyone within sight of
the unit. Additional personal protection equipment may include: face shield, goggles,
gloves, apron, hard hat, safety shoes, and hearing protection.
• The owner of this tool must ensure that safety-related decals are installed, maintained,
and replaced if they become hard to read.
• Shut OFF the motor before opening any connections in the system.
• The guide cannot cover every hazard or situation so always do the job with SAFETY
FIRST.
Pump
WARNING:
• Do not exceed the hydraulic pressure rating noted on the pump nameplate or tamper
with the internal high pressure relief valve. Creating pressure beyond rated capacities
can result in personal injury.
• Retract the system before adding uid to prevent overlling the pump reservoir. An
overll can cause personal injury due to excess reservoir pressure created when
cylinders are retracted.
Safety Precautions

Form No. TAP 11024
Rev. 5 March 8, 2012
• The pump must be used in an upright position.
• Repairs to the pump unit should only be carried out by SPX Bolting Systems or an
authorized Service Agent.
• Do not connect pump to hydraulic system powered by another pump.
Hoses
WARNING:
• Before operating the pump, tighten all hose connections using the correct tools. Do
not overtighten. Connections should be only secure and leak-free. Overtightening can
cause premature thread failure or high pressure ttings to split at pressures lower
than their rated capacities.
• Should a hydraulic hose rupture, burst, or need to be disconnected, immediately shut
off the pump and shift the system pressure manual release valve twice to release
pressure. Never attempt to grasp a leaking hose under pressure with your hands. The
force of escaping hydraulic uid could cause serious injury.
• Do not subject the hose to potential hazard, such as re, sharp surfaces, heavy impact,
or extreme heat or cold. Do not allow the hose to kink, twist, curl, or bend so tightly
that the uid ow within the hose is blocked or reduced. Periodically inspect the hose
for wear, because any of these conditions can damage the hose and possibly result in
personal injury.
• Do not use the hose to move attached equipment. Stress can damage the hose and
possibly cause personal injury.
• Hose material and coupler seals must be compatible with the hydraulic uid used.
Hoses also must not come in contact with corrosive material such as creosote-
impregnated objects and some paints. Consult the manufacturer before painting a
hose. Never paint the couplers. Hose deterioration due to corrosive materials may
result in personal injury.
• Avoid straight line tubing connections in short runs. Straight line runs do not provide
for expansion and contraction due to pressure and/or temperature changes. See
diagrams in Initial Setup section of this form.
• Eliminate stress in the tube lines. Long tubing runs should be supported by brackets or
clips. Tubes through bulkheads must have bulkhead ttings. This makes easy removal
possible and helps support the tubing.
• Carefully inspect all hoses and ttings prior to use. Before each use, check entire hose
for cuts, leaks, abrasion or bulging of cover, or damage or movement of couplings. If
any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately. NEVER attempt to repair
the hose.
Cylinder
DANGER:
• Do not exceed rated capacities of the cylinders. Excess pressure may result in personal
injury.
• Read and understand all safety and warning decals and instructions for devices
attached.
• Inspect each cylinder and coupler before each shift or usage to prevent unsafe

conditions from developing.
• Avoid pinch points or crush points that can be created by the load or parts of the
cylinder.
• To help prevent material fatigue if the cylinder is to be used in a continuous application,
the load should not exceed 85% of the rated capacity or stroke.
IMPORTANT
• Keep the cylinder clean at all times.
• Always use protective covers on disconnected quick couplers.
• Limiting the stroke and pressure on all cylinders will prolong their life.

Initial Setup
1. Remove all packing materials from the assembled unit.
2. Inspect the unit upon arrival. The carrier, not the manufacturer, is responsible for any damage
resulting from shipment.
Filling the Pump Reservoir
Most pumps are shipped without hydraulic uid in the reservoir. Hydraulic uid may have been shipped
in a separate container, but if hydraulic uid is needed, use only approved Power Team hydraulic uid
rated at AW 46 47 cSt @ 38°C (237 SUS @ 100°F). If low temperature requirements are needed, use
hydraulic uid 5.1 cSt @ 100°C (451 cSt @ -40°C). Operating temperature ranges are from
-10°–60° C(14–140°F).
1. Clean the area around the filler cap to remove debris. Debris in the hydraulic fluid can damage the
polished surfaces and precision-fit components of this pump.
2. Remove the filler cap and insert a clean funnel with a filter.
3. Fill the reservoir with hydraulic fluid to 2.6 cm (1 in.) from the cover plate.
4. Replace the filler cap. Verify the breather-hole is open, if applicable.
5. Fully open the pressure release valve.
6. Connect air supply to pump unit.
7. Slowly open the pump unit air stop valve, starting the pump unit.
8. Allow the pump to circulate the oil, watching the oil flow through the opaque plastic oil return tube
running from the pressure release valve back to tank. Any air that is present within the pump unit
pressure chamber will be displaced and seen through this oil return tube. When most of the air
bubbles cease to emerge and the oil flows freely, stop the pump unit.
The pump unit is now ready for use.
Hydraulic Connections
1. Clean the areas around the fluid ports of the pump and cylinders.
2. Inspect all threads and fittings for signs of wear or damage, replace as needed.
3. Clean all hose ends, couplers or union ends.
4. Remove the dust cap from the hydraulic fluid outlets.
5. Connect the hose assembly to the hydraulic fluid outlet, and couple the hose to the cylinder.
CAUTION: To prevent personal injury from leaking hydraulic uid, seal all hydraulic
connections with a high-quality, non-hardening, pipe thread sealant.
IMPORTANT: Sealant tape or non hardening sealer tape can be used to seal hydraulic
connections if only one layer of tape is used. Apply tape carefully, two threads back, to
prevent it from being pinched by the coupler and broken off inside the system. Loose
pieces of sealant could travel through the system and obstruct the ow of uid or cause
jamming of precision-t parts.

Operating Instructions
Prior to operating pump, the following checks should be carried out;
a. Hydraulic oil level - check reservoir level, ensure tank is at least ½ full.
b. Air lubricator oil level - refill if needed.
c. Air regulator water trap - drain water as necessary.
d. Pump purging procedure has been carried out.
The pump unit should be regulated on-site to either stall at a predetermined hydraulic pressure
(associated with the particular bolt tensioner and bolt size to be tightened) or to the maximum pressure
of the tensioning tools, i.e. 1,500 bar (21,750 psi). This is achieved by carrying out the following
procedure:
1. Either loop a 3m (9.8 ft) feed hose across the pump hydraulic oil outlets or alternatively attach blank
female couplings.
WARNING: Unattached couplings, male or female, must not be pressurised under any
circumstances
2. Open the pump hydraulic oil pressure release valve.
3. Ensure that the pump start/stop valve is closed.
4. Connect the pump to the air supply
5. Turn the air pressure regulator adjustment knob anti clockwise until the air pressure gauge reads
zero pressure.
6. Open the pump start/stop valve. As the regulator has been set to read zero pressure the pump
should not start. If the pump does operate, it should be very slow.
7. Close the hydraulic oil pressure release valve. Do not overtighten, the valve seat will be damaged if
overtightened. A light nip will suffice.
8. Rotate the air pressure regulator adjusting knob slowly clockwise until the required hydraulic oil
pressure reads on the pump pressure gauge
9. Close the pump start/stop valve.
10. Slowly open the hydraulic oil pressure release valve to relieve the system pressure.
The pump is now ready for operation and will automatically stall at the pre-set pressure. When using
the pump unit the following safety rules must be adhered to.
Always wear eye protection during pump operation and during tensioning.
Although the pump may be have been pre-set to stall at a certain pressure, always monitor the
pressure gauge during pressure build up.
Always depressurize before leaving the system unattended.

General Maintenance
System Evaluation
The components of your hydraulic system—tools, cylinders, pumps, hoses, and couplings—all must be:
• Rated for the same maximum operating pressure.
• Correctly connected.
• Compatible with the hydraulic uid used.
A system that does not meet these requirements can fail, possibly resulting in serious injury. If you are
in doubt about the components of your hydraulic system, contact SPX Bolting Systems or authorized
service agent.
Inspection
Keep a dated and signed inspection record of the equipment. Before each use, the operator or other
designated personnel should visually inspect for the following conditions:
• Cracked or damaged cylinder or tool.
• Excessive wear, bending, damage, or insufcient thread engagement.
• Leaking hydraulic uid.
• Scored or damaged piston rod.
• Incorrectly functioning or damaged heads and caps.
• Loose bolts or cap screws.
• Damaged or incorrectly assembled accessory equipment.
• Modied, welded, or altered equipment.
• Bent or damaged couplers or port threads.
Periodic cleaning
WARNING: Contamination of the hydraulic uid could cause the valve to malfunction. Loss
of the load/function or personal injury could result.
Establish a routine to keep the hydraulic system as free from debris as possible.
• Seal unused couplers with dust covers.
• Keep hose connections free of debris. Equipment attached to a cylinder must be kept clean.
• Keep the breather-hole in the filler cap clean and unobstructed.
• Use only Power Team hydraulic fluid or equivalent. Replace hydraulic fluid as recommended, or
sooner if the fluid becomes contaminated. Never exceed 300 hours of use between fluid changes.
Hydraulic Fluid Level
In order to keep the pump running efciently, simple maintenance should be carried out after each
period of use.
1. Disconnect pump unit from the air supply. Wipe away as much debris, grease, oil, etc from the
external surfaces as possible. If necessary, carefully wash down in a degreasing bath. Ensure that
the degreasing fluid does not mix with the hydraulic oils or enter the air filter/regulator assemblies.
WARNING:
• Repairs and maintenance are to be performed in a dust-free area by a qualied
technician.

General Maintenance continued
2. Visually examine the pump unit. Check hydraulic couplings for damage. Check hoses and air pipes
for cuts, crimps and damage. Any damaged items must be replaced.
3. Check the hydraulic oil level and condition. If the oil appears dirty or emulsified, empty and clean the
reservoir, and replace with fresh oil. Fill oil tank at least ½ full.
4. Remove the air lubricator bowl and inspect the oil for contamination and debris. Discard the oil if
contaminated and clean the bowl (do not use solvent). Refill or top up the oil to the correct level
using the specified lubricator oil. Refit the bowl.
5. On air filter/regulators with manual drain taps, empty any water which may have accumulated.
Remove the bowl and if still present, empty any remaining water (air filter/regulators with auto-drain
function can still accumulate water if the vents are blocked by debris). Clean out any debris from the
bowl. Check the condition of the filter element. If dirty, carefully unscrew the retainer, remove the
filter element and wash in warm soapy water (NOTE: filter elements are fragile). Using compressed
air, blow the filter element dry from the inside out. Refit the filter element and re-attach the bowl.
6. Connect blank couplings to pump outlets and connect air supply. Test run pump, check and adjust
as below ;
• With the air regulator at 0 bar (0 psi) (and pressure release valve open), increase the air pressure
(via the regulator). Pump should start at approximately 0.68-1.03 bar (10-15 psi) air pressure.
• Close pressure release valve. Adjust air regulator until 1500 bar (21,750 psi) is achieved. Hold for
5 minutes.
• Cycle pump unit to max. pressure several times checking oil pressure stability.
• Allow pump unit to run continuously with pressure release valve open, set air lubricator drip rate to
approximately 1 drop per 30 pump strokes.
• Stop pump unit.
7. Check the pump pressure gauge for accuracy against a calibrated master pressure gauge. It is
recommended that the pump pressure gauge be tested at 345, 690, 1,034, 1,379 and 1,500 bar
(5000, 10000, 15000, 20000 and 21750 psi) increments, and be within +/- 2% of the master pressure
gauge reading.
8. If any aspect of the pump unit deviates from the above it is recommended that the pump unit is
returned to SPX Bolting Systems or an authorized service agent for investigation/repair.
SERVICE AND REPAIR
Due to the complexity of the pump unit, it is recommended that any repairs should only be undertaken
by SPX Bolting Systems or authorized service agent.
END OF LIFE AND DISPOSAL
In accordance with our End of Life Policy, should the product be no longer required for use, it should be
returned to SPX Bolting Systems where it shall be disposed of in a safe and environmentally friendly
manner.
